The Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l’Environnement – LSCE – is looking for a motivated postdoc / young scientist for a project focused on the adaptation of winter wheat to climate change in France via the use of climate analog methods. Work will be performed in collaboration with researchers of the French agronomic institute (INRAE1) in Avignon, Grignon and Australia and with scientists of the ARVALIS Plant Institute ...

Dear all, Please find attached the announcement of an open 18-month postdoc position at LSCE on "Climate Analogs for Wheat Production". Feel free to forward it to any of your students or postdocs who might be interested. Cheers, Mathieu--  Mathieu Vrac Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l'Environnement, (LSCE-IPSL) Centre d'Etudes de Saclay, Orme des Merisiers, Bat. 714 91191 Gif-sur-Yvette, FRANCE Email :  mathieu.vrac@lsce.ipsl.

​Noting the inconsistencies in health policies aimed at combating COVID-19, a mathematician from the LSCE (CEA-CNRS-UVSQ) and his co-authors are calling attention to the poor quality of available data, as well as the intrinsic sensitivity of epidemiological models to these data.

The Laboratoire des Sciences du Climat et de l’Environnement (LSCE) is seeking a highly motivated postdoc / young scientist candidate to join a large European research effort (EMME-CARE) focused on developing new technologies to measure and track urban greenhouse gas emissions from satellite imagery and mesoscale atmospheric modeling over the eastern Mediterranean Sea basin. .. see attached   Ad-postdoc-EMMECARE.pdf (101 Ko)

Global Carbon Budget: survey on strategic directions In the past 15 years the media impact of the annual Global Carbon Budget has increased significantly. However, as the narrative on the global emissions trajectory starts to change, and the demand for scrutiny of emissions reduction efforts increases, the role of the Global Carbon Budget may need to shift.

Grasslands are managed worldwide to support livestock production, while remaining natural or semi-natural ones provide critical services that contribute to the wellbeing of both people and the planet. Human activities are however causing grasslands to become a source of greenhouse gas emissions rather than a carbon sink. A new study uncovered how grasslands used by humans have changed our climate over the last centuries.

According to an international study involving researchers from the LSCE (CEA-CNRS-UVSQ), a significant change in ocean currents in the North Pacific would have favored the first human migration from Asia to North America, at the end of the last ice age. Accounting for nearly half of all water in our oceans, the Pacific is a vast reservoir of heat and CO2.

Attached is the announcement of a 12+ month Engineer position at LSCE/IPSL on "bias correction of climate simulations over France for the 21st century".
