Postdoc in "Antarctic Sea Ice Observing Systems” (x/d/f/m)

The Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) is a member of the Helmholtz Association (HGF) and funded by federal and state government. AWI focuses on polar and marine research in a variety of disciplines such as biology, oceanography, geology, geochemistry and geophysics thus allowing multidisciplinary approaches to scientific goals. Postdoc in 'Antarctic Sea Ice Observing Systems” (x/d/f/m) Background Antarctic sea ice is undergoing rapid and poorly understood changes, with important consequences for the Southern Ocean climate system and ecosystems. At the same time, observations remain unevenly distributed across regions, seasons and platforms. Progress therefore requires both a better scientific understanding of Antarctic sea ice and a coordinated strategy for future observations. The position is part of SYNCHRONY (Synchronous Southern Ocean Observatory), a Horizon Europe project advancing a coordinated, multidisciplinary and sustainable observing system for the Southern Ocean and Antarctica. SYNCHRONY contributes to Antarctica InSync, a broader international initiative coordinating circumpolar and
