The Heisenberg Fellowship is a prestigious award conferred by the DFG (German Research Foundation). In 2001 she joined theAtmospheric Science Group of the Geophysical Institute and the Department of Atmospheric Sciences of the College of Natural Science and Mathematics at theUniversity of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) as an associate professor of atmospheric science. In 2006, she was promoted to full professor and became the first female full professor in the history of UAF's Geophysical Institute.[1] She is the founding Chair of the Department of Atmospheric Sciences at UAF and has served from 2005 to 2013.[3] Atmospheric Sciences is listed by the University of Alaska system as one of UAF's notable departments. Moelders is one of the two representatives of UAF at the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) and a member of both the UCAR President's Advisory Committee on University Relations (PACUR) and the Governance Task Group (GTG) of the UCAR Board of Trustees. Furthermore, she is the founding Editor-in-Chief and member of the Editorial Board of the Swiss journal Climate.[4] She also serves as member of the Editorial Board of the Swiss journal Atmosphere[5] and as member of the Series Advisory Board of SpringerBriefs in Climate Studies.[6]
