The University of Alaska Fairbanks Department of Atmospheric Sciences and the International Arctic Research Center (IARC) invite applications for a tenure track position at the Assistant/Associate Professor level in the area of Atmospheric Sciences to complement other members of the Atmospheric Science Graduate Program and Atmospheric Science research at IARC, the Geophysical Institute and the College of Natural Science and Mathematics.
The University of Alaska, Fairbanks will be hosting a Unidata Regional Software Training Workshop April 22-23, 2020. Unidata software developers will be leading the two-day Python-focused workshop, which will cover the use of the MetPy and Siphon packages in the context of atmospheric science. A basic familiarity with Python is assumed — check out the Unidata Online Python Training for a refresher.
Unidata holds regional workshops in part to facilitate easy access to software training for those who may not be able to travel to training workshops held at the Unidata Program Center in Boulder, Colorado. Attendance is explicitly not limited to local students and staff; we encourage those within the state of Alaska to consider attending. Financial support is available for those that must travel from outside Fairbanks.
