Developing Novel Computational Methods to Describe and Predict Human
Behaviour in Earth System Models
*Supervisor:* Paul Palmer, University of Edinburgh
*Microsoft Research supervisor:* Drew Purves
*Summary:* We describe a PhD project that will fundamentally improve
understanding of how humans will respond to changing climate and
associated environmental factors. We present two interrelated projects:
1. We will develop a model of the relationship between the changing
climate and conflict, including demographic transitions, and how it
is affected by the outbreak and spread of disease
2. We will develop a model of climate-related migration, borrowing
ideas from behavioural ecology, to look at how racial tension and
bounded rationality might affect how communities eventually migrate.
For both projects, an emphasis will be on these predictive models
reproducing observed socio-economic metrics, largely provided by the
United Nations, so that we develop confidence before we apply them to
future climate scenarios.
Interested applicants should send a cover letter and CV to Paul Palmer
(paul.palmer@ed.ac.uk).

Institution: Tennessee State University
Location: Nashville, TN, USA
Category: Admin - Laboratory and Research
Posted: 02/22/2012
Application Due: 03/13/2012
Type: Full Time
A post-doc position is available to join a research group focused on
eddy covariance and chamber measurements, and modeling of greenhouse
gases (GHGs) emissions, plant growth, irrigation and fertilization for
agricultural lands. Prospective candidates need to have a strong
background in boundary layer meteorology, as well as extensive IT and
programming skills.
The position is aimed to improve the capabilities of an existing plant
growth model to simulate the soil-water-fertilizer-plant-air interaction
to improve water and fertilizer efficiency and yield, and reduce GHGs.
Finally, the model will be converted to an online geospatial tool so
that stakeholders can easily access and use.
Requires a PhD in boundary-layer meteorology, computer science, ecology,
agricultural engineering, geospatial information, or related field;
modeling and instrumentation (eddy covariance) experience preferred;
demonstrated record of writing and/or publishing of manuscripts.

PhD Studentship: Carbon dioxide in the urban atmosphere, Auckland, New
Zealand
The School of Environment at The University of Auckland invites
applications for a fully funded PhD studentship to investigate temporal
and spatial variations of anthropogenic, biogenic and geogenic carbon
dioxide (CO_2 ) fluxes in the urbanised Auckland region.Eddy covariance,
carbon isotopic measurements and modelling techniques will be used to
(1) study exchange fluxes of CO_2, (2)_quantify local scale emissions of
CO_2 , and assess the role of vegetation in an urban setting.
The desired qualifications for the PhD student are: Masters degree in
atmospheric sciences or a closely related discipline; experience with
micrometeorological measurements, eddy covariance, stable isotope
measurements and/or modelling.
The successful candidate will be supported by a School of Environment
PhD Tuition Fees Bursary and a Professional Teaching Fellow position for
four years.
For any questions, contact:
Dr Luitgard Schwendenmann (l.schwendenmann@auckland.ac.nz
<mailto:l.schwendenmann@auckland.ac.nz>) or
Dr. Jennifer Salmond (j.salmond@auckland.ac.nz
<mailto:j.salmond@auckland.ac.nz>).
Application Closing Date is March 31, 2012
Applicants should submit their applications by email to the Mrs Ilse
Hindle, School of Environment, The University of Auckland
(<i.hindle@auckland.ac.nz>). The subject title for the email submission
should read ?ENV PhD Opportunities?. Applications should include: Cover
letter with full contact details (especially email and Skype addresses)
and a clear statement of why the applicant is qualified to undertake the
PhD research topic, an up to date curriculum vitae, a list of three
referees and their contact details, a copy of academic transcripts for
undergraduate and any postgraduate courses of study completed and in the
case of non-native English speakers proof of English language
qualifications (e.g. IELTS score).

We seek a highly motivated and qualified researcher to join the Atmospheric and
Oceanic team at Melbourne University in Australia for a two-year full time
appointment. The appointee will contribute to an existing Australian Research
Council (ARC)-funded project exploring the links between floods in Queensland
(in the tropical region) and heat waves leading to bushfires in Victoria (in
south-eastern Australia). The central aim of this project is to help understand
the climate variability on the eastern coast of Australia, including but not
restricted to the interaction between sea surface temperature anomalies,
tropical convection, mid-latitude blocking, energy budget and heat waves. A PhD
in Atmospheric Sciences (or related discipline) is essential.
Melbourne University is a leading employer in Australia with its campus located
within walking distance of the main city in a vibrant cosmopolitan area with
excellent living standards.
Annual Salary (in Australian Dollars): $ 72,503 - $ 77,825 plus employer
superannuation of 9%.

*Postdoctoral Research Fellows (2)*
*Monash University, Melbourne, Australia*
Applications are invited for 2 two-year fixed term postdoctoral Research
Fellows to study cloud systems originating over the Southern Ocean and
their impact on the wintertime precipitation across southeast Australia and
Tasmania. Such systems have been observed by satellites (CALIOP, MODIS) to
commonly be composed of supercooled liquid water. Limited in-situ
observations have identified high supercooled liquid water events in the
alpine regions. The first position will develop a climatology of the
microphysics of these events from an array of remote and in-situ
observations. The second position will employ these observations to
evaluate and develop the microphysics in the Australian Community Climate
and Earth System Simulator (ACCESS). Both positions will work as part of a
team involving scientists at Monash University, the Centre for Australian
Weather and Climate Research (CAWCR), Snowy Hydro and Hydro Tasmania. The
successful applicant should be an active researcher with a PhD (or
equivalent) in atmospheric science or a related discipline.
