Modelling aerosol-cloud interactions: post-doc at the University of Warsaw
The cloud-modelling group at the Faculty of Physics, University of
Warsaw invites applications for a full-time post-doctoral position. The
post holder is expected to join our team for 18 months ending at latest
in spring 2016.
The successful candidate will join our team working on a novel
open-science-compliant software suite for research on aerosol-cloud
interactions (more information: http://github.com/igfuw/).
We are seeking a candidate with background in computational atmospheric
science. Interdisciplinary experience that would contribute to bridging
aerosol/cloud micro/macro physics/chemistry will be appreciated.
Experience in co-operative programming, knowledge of C++ and/or Python,
and general knowledge of open standards and tools of applicability in
numerical modelling will all constitute additional assets.
The post is based in Warsaw, Poland. The project is carried out in
co-operation with partners from NCAR and ECMWF. A very good command of
written and spoken English is essential and the candidate can expect the
same from all members of the team. The candidate is required to hold a
PhD degree by the date of appointment.
The project and the position is fully funded by the Polish National
Science Centre (NCN). There are no constraints as to the nationality of
the applicant, although there are no re-location or home-travel funds
offered. In addition to a competitive salary, the post holder will have
access to travel funds for international meetings.
Please direct the applications and any other inquiries to prof. Hanna
Pawlowska (hanna.pawlowska@igf.fuw.edu.pl). The applications should
include a CV detailing the candidate's experience and research track
record. A cover letter outlining the motivation and providing names of
two reference persons is also requested. Interested candidates attending
the EGU meeting in Vienna are encouraged to contact prof. Wojciech
Grabowski (e.g. at talk EGU2014-3110 or poster EGU2014-3141).

Research Fellow in Aerosol-Cloud Interaction
Reference Number ENVEE0238
Faculty / Service Environment
School / Institute Earth & Environment
Staff Category Research
Grade University Grade 7
Contract Type Fixed Term
Full Time / Part Time Full Time
Location Leeds - Main Campus
Job Summary
Fixed term for 2.5 years
You will work as part of an EU Integrated Project BACCHUS (Impact of Biogenic versus Anthropogenic emissions on Clouds and Climate: towards a Holistic Understanding). BACCHUS involves twenty European institutes and aims to quantify key processes controlling clouds and climate and their feedbacks (http://www.bacchus.ethz.ch/).
This position focuses on the role of aerosol-cloud interactions in the Arctic and how these processes will respond to, and alter, future climate with reduced sea ice cover. The research will exploit a new version of the Met Office Unified Model that includes aerosol coupling with cloud microphysics and surface emissions. The model will be used, together with existing measurements, to understand the processes that control the generation of cloud-active aerosols from local and remote sources, how these aerosols are affected by clouds, and how changes in sea ice will affect aerosol sources as well as humidity and boundary layer dynamics.
The research project is led by Professor Ken Carslaw and Professor Paul Field, who has a joint position between the University of Leeds and the Met Office.
You will have a PhD (or close to submitting) and expertise in a relevant area of atmospheric modelling. You will be able to demonstrate commitment to publication of original results at an international level.
The University of Leeds' commitment to women in science has been recognised with a national accolade. The University has received the Athena Swan Bronze Award in recognition of our success in recruiting, retaining and promoting women in Science, Engineering and Technology (SET). The Faculty of Environment are in the process of preparing an application for an Athena Swan award to recognise our commitment and work in these areas.
The University also offers family friendly policies including generous maternity and paternity leave; full details of the policies can be found here http://hr.leeds.ac.uk/homepage/4/policies.
