POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH FELLOW
5-year Research Fellow in Atmospheric Numerical Modelling
University of Birmingham ? School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences
Applicants are sought for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow (Grade 7 or above) position to work on a collaborative project entitled ?Fundamental Studies of the Sources, Properties and Environmental Behaviour of Exhaust Nanoparticles from Road Vehicles? (FASTER). Funding has been awarded by the European Research Council for a ?2.4M study involving creation of vehicle exhaust nanoparticles under controlled conditions in the engine laboratory, detailed chemical characterisation using novel techniques, study of the physico-chemico properties of major components of exhaust nanoparticles, field studies of the atmospheric distribution and behaviour of vehicle exhaust nanoparticles and development of street canyon scale and neighbourhood scale models of the behaviour of vehicle exhaust nanoparticles incorporating aerosol microphysics as informed by the chemical characterisation and laboratory studies. The successful candidate will work with Professor Rob MacKenzie and Dr Xiaoming Cai to implement the numerical modelling component of the study, which is led by Professor Roy Harrison. This research is part of a wider programme of work at the University of Birmingham studying the fundamental physical and chemical processes determining air pollutant concentrations and exposures in the urban atmosphere, with a focus on airborne particulate matter.
The successful candidate will have a PhD in atmospheric science, or a related highly numerate discipline, together with extensive experience of scientific programming of the dynamics of physico-chemical processes. Knowledge of numerical methods used for modelling atmospheric turbulence, dispersion processes, and aerosol dynamics would be advantageous but is not essential. Strong quantitative skills are required for the modelling work and, given the collaborative nature of the project, excellent communication and interpersonal skills are required as well as the ability to meet deadlines, prepare publications and work effectively with other members of the team. The successful applicant will contribute to the research profile of the team through the dissemination of research findings at major conferences and through publications. The university is committed to enabling the career progression of post-doctoral researchers through opportunities for continuing professional development and mentoring.
Informal enquiries may be made to Professor Rob MacKenzie (a.r.MacKenzie@bham.ac.uk), who will lead the modelling work, or Professor Roy Harrison (r.m.harrison@bham.ac.uk), who is the overall project director.
This is a fixed-term position terminating on or before 31st January 2018.
Starting salary is normally in the range ?27,854 to ?36,298. With potential progression once in post to ?38,522 a year
Closing Date: 8th February 2013 and interviews for successful candidates will be held on the 20th February 2013.

Offer for a postdoctoral position on air-sea interactions at mesoscales
Laboratoire de Meteorologie Dynamique, Paris, France
In the framework of a contract (ASIV) with the French funding agency (ANR),
"Air Sea Interactions and Variability: the effect of SST gradients and
high resolution", we seek a postdoctoral researcher for a 2-year
contract at Laboratoire de Meteorologie Dynamique in Paris (France).
The project concerns the role of air-sea interactions on the
atmospheric storm-track. It will involve both numerical modelling with
the WRF model and theoretical aspects (based on Geophysical Fluid Dynamics).
The contract length is 2 years with a salary of 2700 Euros per month
before taxes and insurances. The position will remain open until filled.
The recruited postdoctoral fellow should start before September 2013.
Candidates should have a PhD in dynamical meteorology, physical
oceanography or in fluid mechanics. Experience on dynamical
understanding of nonlinear processes is desirable.
Interested candidates should send a CV and the names of two references
to Guillaume Lapeyre, glapeyre@lmd.ens.fr

Applications are invited for 4 Experienced Researcher positions to work
in the ITARS ('Initial Training for atmospheric Remote Sensing')
Network. ITaRS is a Marie Curie Initial Training Network (ITN) within
the FP7 programme. ITARS aims at improving our understanding of
aerosols, clouds, and aerosol-cloud interaction processes and their role
in both climate and weather. For this purpose, the research projects
will focus on high-end ground-based remote-sensing instrumentation,
synergistic observations and/or mathematical methods.
The 4 posts are available for 2 years at the following institutions:
- National Institute for Research and Development in Optoelectronics
(INOE) / University of Bucharest, Romania;
- Institute of Methodologies for Environmental Analysis (CNR-IMAA) /
University of Basilicata (Potenza), Italy;
- Delft University of Technology (TU Delft), The Netherlands;
- University of Cologne, Germany;
Salaries will be commensurate with a Marie-Curie Experienced Researcher
(ER) position.
Single projects will focus on:
- Influence of long-range transported aerosols on air quality from in
situ and remote sensing data (ER5)
- Multi-sensor evaluation of cloud-radiation processes (ER9)
- Statistical assessment of aerosol influence on cloud properties (ER14)
- Aerosol-cloud interaction in the twilight zone (ER15)
For more information on ITaRS and on the applications process see
