Data assimilation is a science that fuses process-driven simulation and data, and by integrating the latest AI and machine learning methods, it creates new value. We will conduct research that will pioneer this research field, which will become an important field of computational science in the future. Specifically, we will conduct advanced data assimilation research in meteorology, oceanography, and other application fields using supercomputers, and research toward the fusion of AI, machine learning, and data assimilation with a view to future computer architecture. In addition to the above research and development tasks, the incumbent will also be responsible for various tasks in the assigned research team and the RIKEN Center for Computational Science, and also promoting our research not only within our research team, but also in collaboration with other research teams and researchers from domestic and international research institutes, universities, and companies. Senior Research Scientist is also expected to assist the laboratory head.
