The Climate and the Cryosphere (CliC) Project and the Norwegian Polar Institute (NPI) invite applications for a temporary position (until January 31, 2018) as Director of the CliC International Project Office.
As a core project of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP), the Climate and Cryosphere (CliC) Project encourages and promotes research into the cryosphere and its interactions as part of the global climate system. It seeks to focus attention on the most important issues, encourage communication between researchers with common interests in cryospheric and climate science, promote international co-operation, and highlight the importance of this field of science to policy makers, funding agencies, and the general public. CliC also publishes significant findings regarding the role of the cryosphere in climate, and recommends directions for future study.
The CliC International Project Office (CIPO) is hosted by the Norwegian Polar Institute (NPI), in Tromsø, Norway.
The application deadline is October 15, 2015.
More information on CliC is available at www.climate-cryosphere.org and www.wcrp-climate.org.
More information about the Norwegian Polar Institute can be found at www.npolar.no.
