We are pleased to announce the 2023 call for applications for NOAA’s Climate and Global Change Postdoctoral Fellowship (C&GC) program.

The fellowship program has an outstanding reputation for attracting the best and the brightest PhDs in the sciences and for training the future leaders in climate science. Each appointed fellow is hosted by a mentoring scientist at a U.S. university or research institution to work in an area of mutual interest to advance NOAA’s science mission - to understand and predict changes in climate, weather, oceans, and coasts. (Building a Climate Ready Nation: NOAA FY22-26 Strategic Plan).

NOAA Climate and Global Change Postdoctoral Fellows focus on observing, understanding, modeling, and predicting climate variability, change, and impacts on seasonal and longer time scales. This includes the documentation and analysis of past, current, or possible future climate variability and change, as well as the study of the underlying Earth Systems processes, including physical-, chemical-, biological-, and/or coupled human-systems processes.

C&GC fellows are UCAR employees and receive a fixed annual salary, plus UCAR’s benefits and allowances for relocation, travel and publications. The program is sponsored by NOAA Climate Program Office.
