Description:
Basic Purpose/Job Function:
The NSF AI Institute for Research on Trustworthy AI in Weather, Climate, and Coastal Oceanography (AI2ES) is an NSF funded AI Institute that brings together universities, government, and private industry to develop trustworthy AI for environmental science. AI2ES will uniquely benefit humanity by developing novel, physically based AI techniques that are demonstrated to be trustworthy, and will directly improve prediction, understanding, and communication of high-impact environmental hazards.
As part of a new Expand AI grant with San Diego State University (SDSU) and the University of California - Irvine (UCI), we are seeking a postdoctoral research associate with expertise in machine learning and atmospheric science. This postdoc will be employed by the University of Oklahoma and working with AI2ES director Dr Amy McGovern but will also be working directly with SDSU and UCI on research across the three locations. The new postdoc will be working to help advance the accuracy and explainability of AI/ML algorithms in reproducing the multiscale structure of precipitation and high-impact weather.
Position Summary
The postdoc will be a key part of a team that is developing trustworthy AI for atmospheric science applications. The postdoc will work with interdisciplinary collaborators across the AI2ES institute. At OU, this will include working with the School of Computer Science and the School of Meteorology as well as colleagues at NOAA. This is an exciting position that will allow the postdoc to work at the forefront of the development of trustworthy AI for a variety of environmental science applications.
