About the NASA Postdoctoral Program

The NASA Postdoctoral Program (NPP) offers unique research opportunities to highly-talented scientists to engage in ongoing NASA research projects at a NASA Center, NASA Headquarters, or at a NASA-affiliated research institute. These one- to three-year fellowships are competitive and are designed to advance NASA’s missions in space science, Earth science, aeronautics, space operations, exploration systems, and astrobiology.

Description:

This opportunity is closed to applicants who are Senior Fellows (5-years or more past PhD).

NASA's global carbon cycle research seeks to study the integrated carbon cycle in the atmosphere, oceans, land, in observational datasets and in models and describe the implications for Earth’s climate, productivity, and natural resources. The research goal is to understand and quantify the carbon cycle feedbacks and the uncertainty in the NASA GISS Earth System model and provide information about future changes particularly with respect to the evolution of the marine and terrestrial sinks.

Research proposals are encouraged in the areas of:

  • Land-ocean interface
  • Land vegetation phenology and climate teleconnections
  • Quantification of source-sink circulation patterns, ocean and land carbon uptake
  • Utilization of satellite data to evaluate simulated carbon stocks and fluxes

Successful applicants should have experience analyzing observational and model datasets, and background in the following is highly desirable: Earth, Physical, and/or Computing Sciences, Carbon Cycle Science, mathematical modeling, programming in a compiled language like C or FORTRAN95, scripting with python or R.

Goddard Institute for Space Studies
