The Division of Oceanography in the Research Department of the Swedish
Meteorological and Hydrological Institute seeks a research scientist on
a permanent position to work on a high-resolution, 3-dimensional coupled
biogeochemical-physical ocean model. The model system is used as a tool
to investigate the Baltic Sea and Arctic Ocean response to climate
variations and anthropogenic activities (e.g. nutrient reduction and
greenhouse gas emission scenarios) on long timescales (100 years). The
model system is also used for process studies.

Applicants should have demonstrated experience in ocean research,
preferably with a PhD in oceanography, meteorology, or in a related
field; familiarity with Linux/UNIX, Fortran, and preferably MPI;
experience on 3-dimensional ocean circulation models; and command of the
English language. Good organization and communication skills are
requested. Applicants should be able to work on own initiative and be
able to prioritize.

Written applications marked with reference number 1351 should be sent
not later than Monday, 20 August 2007 to: registrator [at] smhi.se, or via
regular mail to:
Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute
SE-601 76, Norrkoping
