Research Fellow
Multiple Scale Atmospheric Composition and Climate Modelling
University of Hertfordshire - Centre for Atmospheric and Instrumentation Research - Physics, Astronomy & Maths
Salary range: ?25,251 - ?27,578 per annum depending on skills and experience
Salary scale: UH6
FTE: This is a full time position for 37 hours per week
Duration of contract: This is a fixed term contract for a period of two years and is available immediately
We are looking for an enthusiastic and self-motivated scientist to contribute to research programmes on modelling of meteorology, atmospheric composition and climate and associated impacts of air quality on regional to global scales. Particular focus will be on the use of global and regional scale models and simulating distribution of pollutants such as aerosols and ozone at high resolutions and understanding how large scale forcing can influence atmospheric composition on continental scales.
You must have a good first degree in a relevant subject and a PhD in atmospheric modelling. Strong experience in the use of advanced regional and global air pollution and/or climate models operating on LINUX platforms, programming languages (eg FORTRAN) and associated visualisation techniques will be essential. Experience of using different modelling approaches, interfacing regional and global models and use of large datasets in community standard formats will be important. You should also have experience of critically analysing model predictions with available measurements and relate these to underlying mechanisms and multiscale processes. You must also have excellent skills in writing and speaking English and a good track record of publishing papers in high quality journals.
Additional information: Please include your full CV (with contact details of three referees)
Contact details/Informal enquiries: For an informal discussion please contact Professor Ranjeet S Sokhi, Centre for Atmospheric and Instrumentation Research (CAIR), Tel: 01707 284520, Fax: 01707 284208, Email: r.s.sokhi@herts.ac.uk<mailto:r.s.sokhi@herts.ac.uk>.

Closing Date: 23 August 2012 (vacancy will be kept open till the post is filled)
Reference number: 009270
Work permit statement: Under current UKBA regulations, the University is unlikely to be able to get a work permit in respect of this post. We can therefore only accept applications from people who will have the right to work in the UK for the total duration of the contract.
The University offers a range of benefits including a final salary pension scheme, professional development, family friendly policies, child care vouchers, waiving of course fees for the children of staff at UH, discounted memberships at the Hertfordshire Sports Village and generous annual leave.

Education Program Posting:
ORNL12-79-CSMD ? Post-Master?s or Postdoctoral Research Associate in
Computational Biogeoscience
Description:
The successful candidate will work with a highly diverse team of
environmental, ecological, remote sensing, climate, and computational
scientists at ORNL, other DOE Labs, the USDA Forest Service, and NASA to
perform spatial analysis, landscape characterization, and
representativeness analysis; and apply statistical methodologies for
pattern recognition and change detection using remote sensing data and
Earth System Model (ESM) results. The candidate will work with existing
computational algorithms and tools in an Open Source environment as well
as design and develop new tools for analysis and integration of field
data, model results, and remotely sensed imagery. The candidate will
explore new methods for identifying potential threats to forest health
in the U.S. and apply spatial analysis techniques to research problems
in climate and ecology. The candidate will conduct research and report
results in open literature journals, technical reports, and at relevant
conferences.
Qualifications:
A Ph.D. or Masters degree in an Earth or environmental science, computer
science, or civil or environmental engineering discipline is required.
Experience with spatial analysis using GRASS and document preparation
using LaTeX in a Linux or Unix environment is required. Proven
analytical skills using R and/or Python with PostgreSQL, and experience
with large scale data analytics are desired. Experience with MPI,
parallel algorithm development, C/C++, Fortran, Mercurial, and Trac is
preferred but not required. Excellent interpersonal skills for working
within a highly diverse team, strong oral and written communications
skills, good organizational skills, and high personal motivation are all
necessary.
Applicants cannot have received the most recent degree more than five
years prior to the date of application and must complete all degree
requirements before starting their appointment.
