Postdoc and PhD Positions in Atmospheric Modelling (Mountain Boundary Layer)

Atmospheric Dynamics Group at the Department of Atmospheric and Cryospheric Sciences (ACINN), University of Innsbruck, Austria.

The Atmospheric Dynamics group at the Department of Atmospheric and Cryospheric Sciences (ACINN), University of Innsbruck, Austria, invites applications for a Postdoc and a PhD position. Both positions are part of the FWF-funded project MIXMOBL (Multiscale Interactions and Exchange in the Mountain Boundary Layer), led by Alexander Gohm. MIXMOBL is embedded in the international TEAMx initiative. Focusing on the Nafingalm target area (Weer Valley, Austria), the project will investigate multiscale atmospheric interactions, leveraging extensive observational data from the 2025 TEAMx summer campaign. Successful candidates for both positions will apply the novel Portable Model for multiscale Atmospheric Prediction (PMAP) over realistic and truly complex Alpine terrain to perform nested mesoscale and Large-Eddy Simulations (LES).

Application deadline 29 July 2026.
