Job Description

WSL Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research SLF
The WSL Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research SLF is part of the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research WSL and thus of the ETH Domain. WSL focuses on the sustainable use and protection of the environment and on the handling of natural hazards. WSL employs approximately 600 people, of whom 180 work at SLF in Davos.

The Research Unit Snow and Atmosphere investigates snow and its interactions with the hydro- und atmosphere across different scales, with the aim to improve our understanding of the role of snow in the climate system. We are looking for a

PhD student in Antarctic Sea Ice Processes 80-100% (f/m/d)

===============================================================

This PhD project will be focused on quantifying the drivers and physical properties of snow and sea ice in the Ross sea, Antarctica, using a combination of field work, process-driven models and reanalysis data. The aim of this PhD is to bridge the scales between local-scale measurements and large-scale atmospheric drivers. The PhD is embedded in a larger international project, which investigates the role of Antarctic sea ice dynamics on climate and marine ecosystems.

You have a master's degree in environmental science with a strong background in atmosphere dynamics. You are interested in the cryosphere and are enthusiastic about combining snow- and sea ice physics with large-scale atmosphere dynamics and you would like to move to Davos.

If this is you, please send your application to Clemens Gudel, Human Resources SLF, through our webpage. Applications via email will not be considered. Ruzica Dadic (ruzica.dadic@slf.ch, +41 (0)81 4170 365) is happy to answer any questions. WSL is committed to diversity and inclusion as core values. We actively promote equality and foster an open, inclusive work environment.
