Job Description
About this position
Atmospheric transport models simulate concentrations of trace gasses and particles in the atmosphere. They are an indispensable tool for climate & air pollution research, in particular for understanding the physics of complex atmospheric processes, but also for policy development. These models are computationally expensive and require efficient use of available computing infrastructure. For this reason, we are continuously exploring the possibilities of modern computational techniques and coding platforms to increase speed, accuracy and usability of our current models. This internship focuses on the design of a new code base for the atmospheric transport models used in our department. You will work on the implementation of a transport model in a modern high level programming language and contribute to solutions that help accelerate and improve current atmospheric modeling capabilities. Your ideas will help bring our modeling capabilities to t...
