The Satellite group at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry is
currently looking for a PhD student who will study sources and formation
processes of secondary organic aerosols by satellite remote sensing of
trace gases and aerosols.
Project description: The PhD student will study the influences of trace
gases on secondary organic aerosol formation. This will be done by
comparing trace gas concentrations (NO2, SO2, HCHO, and CHOCHO) from the
GOME-2 and OMI satellite instruments with aerosol concentrations
measured by the MODIS satellite instruments and ground-based aerosol
monitoring stations belonging to the AERONET network.
The influences of temperature, vegetation type, and leaf area index will
also be studied. The work will be performed in collaboration with Prof.
Allen Goldstein, and may include a research visit to his lab in
Berkeley, California.

PhD Student position in Aerosol Research at the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland.
Atmospheric aerosol particles have an impact on the earth?s climate by scattering and absorption of solar radiation and by modification of cloud properties. These effects remain the largest source of uncertainty in our current understanding of the earth's climate system. Atmospheric aerosol particles are also known to cause adverse health effects. Measurement and modeling of aerosol effects remain a challenge due to the complexity of the processes and the heterogeneity of aerosols in terms of chemical composition, physical properties, and spatial as well as temporal distribution. For the investigation of atmospheric aerosol particles we are looking for a PhD Student.

We seek a highly motivated and qualified researcher to join a new research group
as part of the Greenhouse Gas Monitor (GGM) project funded under the Australian
Space Research Programme. GGM will develop a cost-effective ground-based
instrument for measuring column-integrated CO2 concentrations for use in
satellite validation, numerical weather prediction and estimation of CO2 sources
and sinks. The successful candidate will be employed by the University of
Melbourne in a team led by Prof. Peter Rayner. The candidate will be based at the
Bureau of Meteorology's and CSIRO's Centre for Australian Weather and Climate
Research and be co-supervised by Prof. John LeMarshall. The project is to analyze
atmospheric CO2 using the Australian Community Climate and Earth System Simulator
(ACCESS) Atmospheric Model used operationally within BOM. This is expected to
lead to improved analysis of temperature and water vapour as measured by
satellite and hence to improved forecasting.
The successful applicant will:
1) Implement improved climatologies of CO2 in the ACCESS model (generated, for
example, by the Monitoring of Atmospheric Composition and Climate project) and
assess their impact on analysis and forecast.
2) Aid in the coupling of the transport model TM5 with the ACCESS model to allow
operational inclusion of near real-time CO2 measurements
3) Implement bias correction schemes for current and future satellite CO2
products based on column integrated measurements from the GGM instrument and its
precursors.
Salary is in the range $a56k--$a77k depending on the experience of the
candidate. the duration is 2 years. More information and the
application can be found at
http://jobs.unimelb.edu.au/jobSearch.asp?stp=AW by searching for the
position number 0028277. the closing date for applications is Feb
13. for more information contact Peter Rayner (prayner@unimelb.edu.au)
but please do not submit applications directly to that address since
they may not be properly recorded.
regards
Peter Rayner
