Ref AC0508
Grade B - 27,989 to 35,883 GBP per annum
Full-time, Permanent
                                                                                                          
This is an excellent opportunity for a lecturer to work in an area
that will enhance interactions between the School's research groups in
Meteorology and Applied Mathematics.
                                                                                                          
The Department of Meteorology and the Department of Mathematics have
strong research groups that extend across a whole range of spatial
scales, from the urban boundary layer to the global atmosphere-ocean
system, and include theoretical developments, numerical modelling and
the exploitation of observations.
                                                                                                          
You will be expected to engage with existing activities and will build
a research presence by acquiring external funding and play an active
role in the high quality undergraduate and postgraduate teaching
programme. Possible areas of expertise include the development of
novel computational techniques for modelling fluid flow, fluid
dynamics and the theory of scattering of electromagnetic radiation
                                                                                                          
You will ideally hold a PhD, and have several years of post-doctoral
experience in an area where techniques in mathematics are applied to
problems in atmospheric and ocean science.
