Subject: NASA Postdoctoral Fellow (NPP) at JPL

Jean Dickey expects to have a NASA Post-Doctoral Fellow (NPP)
position available this fall and is seeking candidate. A description
is given below; those interested should contact Jean at the address
listed. Please send a CV and the names of three references.

High-resolution retrievals of the recent changes in EarthÂ’s gravity
field using GRACE, and longer records of changes in lower-order
components from satellite laser ranging data can offer unique
insights into a wide range Earth system processes encompassing the
dynamics of the atmosphere, ocean, land water (hydrology), land ice,
and the mantle. We will utilize these space geodetic data sets along
with complementary observations and model results of the EarthÂ’s
various subsystems to study the physical processes that govern their
dynamics over a wide range of time scales. Our interests are
interdisciplinary, crosscutting into several related areas. In
particular, we plan to study high-latitude areas where water/ice mass
fluxes are rapidly changing such as Alaska, Canada and Russia.
Comparisons with models will be particularly valuable in assessing
the climatic implications of the observed geodetic and gravitational
variations.
