You should be a high quality research scientist with a PhD (or about to attain one) in Atmospheric Science, Maths or Physics. A strong mathematical background is essential (including differential equations), in addition to programming skills (e.g., FORTRAN, IDL, UNIX) and proficiency in numerical modelling. You should be able to work independently using own initiative and work well as part of a team.<O:P></O:P></DIV><DIV class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Project Background and Aims: Theory could have a greater role to play in robust arguments for future changes in storm behaviour. For example, policy makers and many other sectors of society would like to know whether "extreme storms" will become more frequent in a warmer world resulting from greenhouse gas forcing - if these changes do occur they will have major economic impacts. There are many uncertainties associated with the representation of the Earth system by climate models, especially considering the behaviour of storms.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Indeed, the physical mechanisms behind changes in storm frequency and intensity are not sufficiently well understood from a theoretical perspective to determine whether the results of the simulations are physically reasonable and to what aspects of the changing climate they might be sensitive.<O:P></O:P></DIV><DIV class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The aim of this project is to bring some of the latest theory of mid-latitude cyclones to bear on analyses of the real atmosphere, produced by a weather forecast centre, in an attempt to identify robust predictions for the dependence of cyclone properties, such as surface wind strength, on background state properties, such as the pole to equator temperature gradient.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>By establishing quantitative relationships between background states (climate) and storm behaviour, this project will produce a framework for analysing changes to extreme storms under different climate scenarios. If the changes to storms simulated by a climate model accord with the expectations of sound physical reasoning, grounded in theory, it is possible to place greater confidence in the climate projections.<O:P></O:P></DIV><DIV class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Overall Objectives: 1) Develop the theoretical framework for the consideration of mid-latitude storms based on Lagrangian mean-flow wave interaction together with counter-propagating Rossby wave ideas (see Methven et al. (2005), Q. J. Roy. Met. Soc., 131, 1425-1440 for more detail).<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>2) Use this new framework to: a) investigate the development of storms in the period 1957-2001 and quantify relationships between storm properties and the background state that are indicated by theory.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>b) evaluate climate model simulations of storms in the period 1957-2001,<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>c) test the robustness of model simulations of storm behaviour in projections of climate for the end of the century.<O:P></O:P></DIV><DIV class="MsoNormal"><SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Terms and Conditions: The appointment is full-time for 3 years, funded by NERC, under the supervision of Dr. J.
