Job Id : SF 38775
Internal and external job posting until Monday September 14, 2026

For institute Earth and Life Institute of Science and Technology Sector

Introduction

Antarctic sea ice extent has shown major changes over the past decades, with a slight increase between 1979 and 2015 followed by an abrupt decrease and low values since then. However, the contribution of the multidecadal variability in the Southern Ocean to these recent changes is still unknow. To reduce the uncertainty on this contribution, the goal of the project, funded by Belgian Fonds de la Recherche Scientifique (FNRS), is to reconstruct the evolution of the sea ice extent over the past 200 years and to identify the mechanisms responsible for this variability.

At the Earth and Climate Center of the Earth and Life Institute at UCLouvain (ELIC/ELI), you will join a vibrant and internationally recognized team with a long-standing reputation for excellence in polar research. The polar team comprises around 25 PhD students, post-doctoral researchers, academics, and IT specialists, creating together a dynamic and collaborative research environment. The work will be supervised by Hugues Goosse.

Job description

Evaluate existing sea ice reconstructions using different datasets, including historical records coming from different sources.
Perform a new large-scale reconstruction of the state of the atmosphere, ocean and sea ice over the past 200 years combining long instrumental data and paleoclimate proxy records.
Estimate the origin of the differences between existing reconstructions due to methodology and the choice of the observations.
Describe the mechanisms at the origin of the most robust characteristics of the reconstructions.

Starting date: Ideally in December 2026 but can be negotiated
Full time position for 24 months

Net monthly salary: 3100-3300 € (depending on seniority)
