Singapore Nanyang Technological University Full time

Earth Observatory of Singapore (EOS) is looking for a candidate to join them as a Research Assistant/ Research Associate/ Research Fellow.

The Climate Transformation Programme (CTP) aims to develop, inspire and accelerate knowledge-based solutions and educate future leaders to establish the stable climate and environment necessary for resilient, just, and sustainable Southeast Asian societies.

CTP will generate knowledge and innovation across disciplines including climate and Earth science, ecology, materials science, artificial intelligence, humanities, social sciences and the arts, finance, health, and engineering. It will also translate state-of-the-art scientific results into real world solutions for Singapore, and it will transfer these solutions to Southeast Asia (SEA) and beyond.

The research plan of CTP consists of six strategic and interlinked research clusters:

Cluster 1: Climate processes and extremes
This cluster will address key knowledge gaps in the understanding and modelling of the physical processes and impacts of climate change, with specific focus on Singapore and the equatorial SEA region.
Led by Prof. Adam Switzer, Asst. Prof. Edward Park, Assoc. Prof. Xianfeng Wang, Assoc. Prof. Winston Chow and Asst. Prof. Jingyu Wang.

Cluster2: Climate and biodiversity
This cluster will assess climate change effects on biodiversity and carbon sequestration in SEA tropical forests and human-modified landscapes.
Led by Asst. Prof. Eleanor Slade, Assoc Prof. Ryan Chisholm, and Asst. Prof. Kim Hie Lim.

Cluster 3: Climate mitigation
This clusterwill develop mineral and vegetation-based carbon dioxide removal.
Led by Prof. Simon Redfern, and Asst. Prof. Janice Ser Huay Lee.

Cluster 4: Novel engineering solutions for climate impacts
This cluster will explore engineering solutions to adapt to sea-level rise and climate-constrained water resources.
Led by Prof. Chu Jian, Asst. Prof. Perrine Hamel, and Assoc. Prof. Qin Xiaosheng.

Cluster 5. Climate and finance markets
This cluster will measure and price climate risk in financial markets, design innovative risk financing solutions to climate change, and quantify economic impact of climate policies.
Led by Prof. Xin Chang, Asst. Prof. Weikai Li, andAssoc. Prof. Wenjun Zhu.

Cluster6. Climate and human health
This cluster will predict the future impacts of climate change on human health.
Led by Assoc. Prof. Steve Yim, Assoc. Prof. Konstandina Griva, Assoc. Prof. Alex Cook, and Prof. Joseph Sung.

Three cross-cutting themes will be key enablers to integrate the individual strategic clusters:

Cross Cutting Theme 1: Sustainable societies
This theme will leverage climate research in communication, public opinion and psychology, and artistic impressions to shape public attitudes and behaviours.
Led by Prof. Shirley Ho, Prof. Edson Tandoc Jr., Prof. Thomas Schroepfer, Assoc. Prof. Sonny Rosenthal, Asst. Prof. Yong Ming Lee, Prof. Ute Meta Bauer, and Assoc. Prof. Laura Miotto

Cross Cutting Theme 2:Satellite remote sensing
This theme will map and monitor the impact and solutions of climate change in SEA.
Led by Assoc. Prof. Sang-Ho Yun, and Prof. Erick Lansard.

Cross Cutting Theme 3:Artificial intelligence
This theme will better understand climate processes, impacts and prepare for a resilient future through Machine Learning and AI.
Led by Prof. Weisi Lin, and Prof. Bo An.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Manage, analyse, and interpret complex datasets, employing the latest methodologies and tools for accurate and efficient data processing.

  • Engage in close collaboration with experts across diverse disciplines, integrating various datasets to enhance the understanding on climate transformation.

  • Develop key case studies that can inform and support policy decisions, emphasizing practical applications of research findings in risk management and mitigation strategies.

  • Prepare research outputs in formats accessible to policymakers, risk stakeholders, and the broader community, ensuring clear and effective communication of complex scientific information.

  • Present, publish, and communicate research results in scientific meetings, scholarly journals, and other relevant platforms, contributing to the broader scientific discourse.

  • Provide guidance and support to junior team members, students, and research assistants, fostering an environment of learning and professional growth.

Job Requirements:

  • B.Sc. (for Research Assistant position)/M.Sc. (for Research Associate position)/Ph.D. (for Research Fellow position) in Earth Sciences or another related field.

  • Post-bachelor/post-doctoral experience is an advantage.

  • Track record of publishing research relevant to the position in international recognised journals.

  • Evidence of excellent communication skills.

  • Evidence of independence in research direction and team spirit.

We are looking for new additions to our team and would like to invite prospective PhD candidates and post-doctoral fellows to join CTP. Interested applicants should submit a CV and a statement of interests indicating which cluster/cross cutting theme that you are interested in.

We regret to inform that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
