*PhD position on Aerosol-Cloud-Radiation Interactions over the Arctic at
UQAM*
A fully-funded PhD studentship is available in the Department of Earth and
Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Quebec at Montreal under the
supervision of Prof. Eric Girard. This project aims to investigate indirect
radiative effects of aerosols related to ice nucleation in cold clouds over
the Arctic. This project involves collaboration with atmospheric chemists
and field scientists to develop new ice nucleation parameterizations based
on laboratory studies and to use in-situ observations for model validation.
This Ph.D. position is within the framework of NETCARE (*NET*work on *C*limate
and *A*erosols: Addressing Key Uncertainties in *R*emote Canadian
*E*nvironments)
funded by NSERC. NETCARE is comprised of the leading scientists in the
Canadian climate-aerosol community. The central impetus within the network
is that the key uncertainties in this complex field must be addressed by
multidisciplinary studies of interacting components of the Earth system,
particularly the ocean, atmosphere, and cryosphere. NETCARE involves
laboratory studies, in-situ measurements and modeling.
Successful applicant will have an MSc in Atmospheric Sciences or related
disciplines. Good programming skills in Fortran, C/C++, Matlab or R,
familiarity with UNIX environment and shell scripting and excellent written
and oral communication skills in French and English will be definite
assets.
Interested applicants should submit a cover letter, CV, academic
transcripts and contact details of three referees to Eric Girard *(
girard.eric@uqam.ca)* by November 22, 2013. Information about the PhD
program at UQAM can be obtained from

Climate Change and Sustainable Development Economics
1 Research Position
Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei (FEEM, a leading research institute on
sustainable development - www.feem.it <http://www.feem.it>) and the
Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change (CMCC, a research
institution that manages and promotes scientific and applied activities
in the field of international climate change research -- www.cmcc.it
<http://www.cmcc.it>) aim to recruiting motivated and talented
researchers to cover one open position on climate change and sustainable
development economics.
The selected applicant will join the FEEM Research Programme on Climate
Change and Sustainable Development (CCSD), or the CMCC Research Division
on Climate Impacts and Policy (CIP). These research branches carry out
high level research on climate change economics, climate change
integrated assessment modelling, climate change policy and governance,
climate-related innovation and technological change, natural hazards and
extreme climate-related events, management of natural resources,
sustainability and growth beyond GDP.
*Requirements*
Candidates should have a Ph.D. or be PhD candidates in economics with a
focus on economic growth and political economy. Experience in conducting
applied economic research using both empirical and numerical methods is
requested. The applicant will join a project that aims at advancing the
modeling of the role of institutions and interest groups in
decision-making processes related to global climate change policies.
His/Her main task will be to connect numerical integrated assessment
models of climate change with the political economy literature on the
role of institutions and interest groups.
FEEM and CMCC offer a truly interdisciplinary workplace and have strong
ties to a worldwide network of research institutions engaged in
environmental research. Selected applicants will interact with
researchers of different nationalities and have the opportunity to
present scientific papers at a number of conferences and workshops.
The selected applicant is expected to begin his/her assignment in
January 2014. The initial appointment is for 12 months and can be
renewed up to 3 years. Gross salary is competitive and will be based on
qualification and experience. Research will be carried out at the FEEM
or CMCC premises in Milan or in Venice, Italy.
*Application requirements*
Applicants should send a detailed curriculum vitae, a job market paper
(an authored or co-authored paper which demonstrates the applicant's
skills relevant to the topic of the position), and at least one letter
of recommendation to Monica Eberle (monica.eberle@feem.it
<mailto:monica.eberle@feem.it>). *Incomplete applications will not be
considered*.
Applicants can also submit their candidature through the CMCC job
opportunities section at www.cmcc.it/jobs <http://www.cmcc.it/jobs>. In
