Postdoc Offer - 36 month

We are looking for a 36-month postdoc in physical oceanography to work at LOPS-IFREMER in the framework of the Horizon Europe EPOC project (Explaining and Predicting the Ocean Conveyor: https://epoc.blogs.uni-hamburg.de/).

The objective of the position is to use a mooring dataset and a submesocale-resolving regional simulation to analyse the dynamics of the deep western boundary current across the subpolar-subtropical "Transition Zone " of the North Atlantic (Flemish Cap and the Grand Banks). Emphasis will be put on the propagation of buoyancy and bottom pressure anomalies along the boundary, and their roles in setting or breaking the meridional coherence of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation.
