Job opportunity ? Atmospheric Scientist
Atmospheric Scientist
Please quote ref no: BAS 24/14
Closing date for applications: 30 Mar 2014
Main Description
The British Antarctic Survey (BAS), part of the Natural Environment Research Council, (NERC) aims to undertake a world-class programme of scientific research, and to sustain for the UK an active and influential regional presence and a leadership role in Antarctic affairs.
We are looking to appoint an atmospheric scientist (PDRA) to work on a NERC Technologies Proof?of?Concept project (NERC grant ref. NE/L012197/1) entitled ?Atmospheric Wind Evaluation using Spectroscopic Observations of Millimetre-wave Emission (AWESOME)?. This feasibility study will use computer based atmospheric simulations and retrieval to evaluate the horizontal wind profiling capability of a 230 GHz to 250 GHz millimetre-wave radiometer from Arctic and Antarctic locations. The PDRA will work in Cambridge as part of a small team within the BAS Climate science programme involved in millimetre-wave observations of the polar atmosphere. The project is jointly with the University of Edinburgh, School of GeoSciences and involves collaborative partners at the Universities of Bath and Bern, Switzerland.
Qualifications: PhD (or equivalent) in physics or a closely related area.
Duration: Up to 10 months from successful candidate?s available start date (ideally 1st May 2014 or soon afterwards) to completion of the project by 30th March 2015 at the latest.
Salary: Salary will be in the range of ?26,715 to ?30,000 per annum, pro-rata. We offer a generous benefits package including a defined salary pension scheme, free car parking, flexible working hours and 30 days annual leave.
On-line application forms and further information are available on our website at www.antarctica.ac.uk/employment<http://www.antarctica.ac.uk/employment/>
These are also available from the Human Resources Section, British Antarctic Survey, High Cross, Madingley Road, Cambridge, CB3 0ET. Tel: (01223) 221508.
Please quote reference: BAS 24/14
Closing date for receipt of application forms is 30th March 2014
Interviews will be held during April 2014

Dear Colleagues,
The Department of Geography at the University of California, Berkeley seeks applications for a Project Scientist, Step 1 or 2, in the area of micrometeorological techniques at 50 percent with a start date of May 1, 2014 ending November 1, 2014.
Position duties: To develop automated sampling systems based on the technique of Relaxed Eddy Accumulation (REA) with the purpose of measuring biosphere-atmosphere exchange of ppt to ppb level trace gases. These sampling systems will be interfaced with on-line gas chromatographic (GC) systems to provide continuous measurements. This project scope includes the original design and fabrication of the sampling system, interfacing with the GC system, field installation and testing, and eventually final data evaluation. Field work will be conducted in forested ecosystems in Colorado and Brazil, with laboratory work based out of Boulder, CO.
Basic qualifications: A PhD or equivalent and at least two years of post-doctoral research experience by time of application. Additional qualifications: (1) Expertise in micrometeorological techniques, such as eddy covariance and REA. (2) Experience using sonic anemometry. (3) Experience in measuring atmospheric volatile gas phase organic compounds ? including materials compatibility, sampling method, sample storage and analysis using gas chromatography. (4) Knowledge in Labview and Campbell programming. (5) Experience in automation and remote operation of field instruments. (6) Experience in field installation of equipment on towers. (7) Record of peer-reviewed publications.
Applicants should submit a cover letter, CV, selected publication or writing sample, and the names and contact information for 3 professional referees.
For additional details and to apply, please go to the following link: https://aprecruit.berkeley.edu/apply/JPF00363
Applications must be received by March 31, 2014. Please direct questions to Professor Robert Rhew at rrhew@berkeley.edu<mailto:rrhew@berkeley.edu>
The department is interested in candidates who will contribute to diversity and equal opportunity in higher education through their work. The University of California, Berkeley is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer. The University is committed to supporting employees as they balance work and family.
Thank you!
