The Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) opens a 3-year full time position for a research scientist to work with climate data records and remote sensing of sea and sea ice surface temperatures.

DMI is a leading European developer and producer of remote sensing products, including Sea Surface Temperature (SST) and Ice Surface Temperature (IST) products for the high latitudes. The satellite based products are critical for understanding the effects of climate change and are important inputs to weather and ocean models. Most of the work is carried out in research and development projects financed through ESA, EUMETSAT, the EU’s Copernicus program and the Danish National Center for Climate Research (NCKF).

You will be part of the NCKF Satellite and the Arctic unit, where you will work on developing a global, daily SST gap free Climate Data Record in the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) and participate in the SST/IST activities within the Copernicus Marine Service project. You will also be responsible for creating a consistent sea ice concentration product for the reanalysis and for validating and analyzing the data sets. Finally you will contribute writing scientific publications about the results.

Main working tasks
  • Develop, maintain and validate the global SST climate data records satellite within the C3S project.
  • Develop consistent sea ice concentration product using satellite data records
  • Analyze the Climate data set to assess the climatic changes in global and high latitude SST and ISTs
  • Participate in the development and validation of satellite SST/IST products in the high latitudes within the Copernicus Marine Service project.
  • Present results at scientific conferences and publish the results in peer-reviewed journals.

Qualifications and experience

  • Experience in geophysics, oceanography, engineering or similar within the field of remote sensing
  • Experience with satellite surface temperature products, validation with in situ data and statistical analyses of 2-dimensional geophysical parameters.
  • Experience with Sea ice concentration products
  • Experience with Linux systems.

About DMI and NCKF The position is in the Danish National Centre for Climate Research (NCKF), which is a department at DMI. NCKF aims to conduct critical climate research for the Kingdom of Denmark (Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands) and bring together climate knowledge to form the basis for green transition and climate adaptation. The activities include monitoring of the Arctic and assessment of observed and future climate change of the physical climate system, with a special focus on the Arctic, Greenland and on extreme weather and sea level around Denmark. Across the department, the research builds on both global and regional modelling as well as observations from remote sensing, in-situ measurements and field work.

NCKF employs approximately 55 staff members, the majority is climate researchers including PhD students, junior and senior scientists. The department also includes a smaller group of generalists, project managers and administrative staff, who work in close collaboration with colleagues in the DMI departments for e.g. Finance & Facility Management and Policy & Strategy. We have a strong international profile, which is also reflected in the many nationalities employed and in a combined English and Danish working language.

We have approximately 330 employees at DMI, most of whom work at Lyngbyvej in Copenhagen. In November 2023, DMI will move 400 metres to new premises in Sankt Kjelds Gård in Østerbro, where the interior design will allow for an activity-based way of working.

Employment and salary Employment and salary will be according to the Danish Law and Agreements, depending on previous experience. It will be possible to apply for an addition to the basic salary. Employees, who are recruited from abroad, and who are able to meet certain conditions, have the opportunity to work in Denmark for a period of 60 months under a special 26 % tax rate without deduction, instead of working under the regular income taxation. DMI offers a flexible working week of 37 hours including a paid lunch break, and six weeks of paid vacation annually. It is an advantage to be able to speak Danish but it is not a requirement.
