Well it turns out we have 3 open positions that I should tell you about:
- #Assimilation of #GNSS-R to improve the land surface (in the same team as me)
- Assimilation of #CIMR in the coupled system looking at the ocean (we've already started preparing for the sea ice part; on the #ESA #DANTEX project I'm involved in)
- A climate reanalysis scientist looking after the quality of #ERA6

(Bonus section head job available if you fancy it!)

@phil_browne Noted and boosted!

Does the #SeaIce model in #ERA6 have multiple layers (e.g. of snow) so that layered snow-depth or temperature can be a thing? And does it have several thickness categories or one?

In general, it could maybe be good to have output variables that cover the seven #GCOS Sea Ice #ECV products: https://gcos.wmo.int/en/essential-climate-variables/sea-ice

@phil_browne @OceanTerra Yes, there is a lot that could be done, both within your #DA system or outside (with a #DA, or #ML approach?).

The #satellite ppl are also very excited by the data-rescue work #C3S has initiated for the early missions (Nimbus-5, Nimbus-6,...) We are hoping that the resulting datasets will be shared with the community at large (beyond being input to #ERA6

Visibility on these data-rescue activities would help other funders (like #ESA Climate) to plan R&D activities.

My day job is to improve weather forecast by using information from models and observations of the #ocean and #seaice to give a better estimate of the current state of the Earth system

This means sitting at a desk coding, but also engaging with people who know a lot more than I do!

I'm currently working hard on the next gen ocean #reanalysis, to feed into #NWP and hopefully #ERA6 soon. My focus is on #seaice #DataAssimilation and coupled #SST #DA

I moonlight as a cake tester 🍰

RT @CopernicusECMWF: #ERA6 will improve:

✔️resolution of at least 18 km,
✔️model bias,
✔️realism of near-surface quantities,
✔️ocean wave physics,

and will exploit more observations, as explained by Bill Bell @ECMWF.

RT @CopernicusECMWF: Coming up in #LPS22: Copernicus Climate Change Service scientist Dr. William Bell will speak about satellite data assimilation on the Next Generation Global Atmospheric Reanalysis of @ECMWF #ERA6 in the session about #EO in #climate services. Happening at Rhinelobby room!
