Introduction

CICERO currently has an open position on greenhouse gas emission trends, biogeochemical cycles, mitigation pathways, and links to the climate system and climate policy. 

The successful applicant will perform data analysis, computer modelling, paper writing, and application writing. This is a permanent position.

About the position

The successful applicant will work within the interdisciplinary Climate Mitigation Group at CICERO. Current areas of activity within the group include drivers in recent and near-future emissions, statistical and atmospheric verification of emissions statistics, the global carbon budget, and the analysis and communication of emission scenarios. Research projects are generally global in scope, but current activities focus on China, the USA, the EU, India, the Nordic countries, and Norway. We work on a variety of projects with Norwegian and EU funding, and have strong collaboration with the Global Carbon Project, amongst others.

Required skills include modelling and programming (Matlab or closely related languages); working with large datasets; mathematics and statistics; the ability to quickly adapt to different projects and research fields; confident communication skills; the ability to independently develop and write journal articles; and the ability to network and develop new projects. CICERO puts a strong focus on communicating findings to a broad audience. Given this is a permanent position, the suitability of the candidate and a willingness to learn Norwegian is important.
