The British Antarctic Survey (BAS) is looking for an ice sheet modeller/emulation scientist to join our Ice Dynamics and Polar Ocean teams. This post is part of an ARIA-funded Forecasting Tipping Points programme, GIANT (Greenland Ice sheet to AtlaNtic Tipping points from ice loss). GIANT is a large international collaboration across 17 institutions that is dedicated to observing and modelling the melting and calving of glaciers in Greenland fjords.

At BAS, you’ll join an interdisciplinary team of oceanographers and glaciologists working closely together to improve our understanding of the evolving ice and ocean dynamics in Greenland and Antarctica. You’ll help us to deliver exciting and impactful scientific research on one of the biggest questions facing society: how much and how fast will ice sheets melt, influencing North Atlantic climate and causing global sea-level rise?
