Lecturer/Senior Lecturer in Environmental Science / Environmental Health
University of Birmingham
School Of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences
The University of Birmingham is continuing to make strategic investments across its research base in the School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences. We are seeking to appoint a Lecturer or Senior Lecturer in Environmental Science/Environmental Health. Applications are invited from candidates to strengthen further and expand our activities in one of the following areas:
Air pollution and atmospheric chemistry
Environmental nanoscience
Meteorology and climate
Persistent organic pollutants
Willingness to collaborate across disciplinary boundaries is an essential pre-requisite. Teaching responsibilities will relate primarily to Masters courses in the Environmental Health and Air Pollution fields and candidates should have a background enabling them to make a strong contribution to teaching as well as established excellence in research. Evidence of a strong track record in publishing work of the highest academic quality and impact is essential, and (for a senior appointment) obtaining external research funding is important. In addition to demonstrating (or showing potential for) internationally excellent research, applicants must have a commitment to delivering excellent teaching and learning at all levels (i.e. undergraduate, postgraduate, and higher research degrees) and communicating the relevance and impact of their research to stakeholders. The successful candidate will also be involved in administrative tasks (appropriate to their appointment grade) to support delivery of research and teaching within the School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences.
Permanent position
Lecturer:- Starting salary is normally in the range ?38,511 to ?45,954 .
Senior Lecturer: - Starting salary is normally in the range ?47,328 to ?54,841.
Informal Enquiries to Professor Roy Harrison (Head of Environmental Health Sciences research group); r.m.harrison@bham.ac.uk

Full posting, and link to online application form<https://golf.hr-manager.net/ApplicationInit.aspx?cid=5001&departmentId=6145&ProjectId=87571&MediaId=5>
The Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI<http://www.dmi.dk/>), Department of Research and Development, is opening a new Scientist Position for 2 years within marine applications of remote sensing data. The starting date is July 1st, 2015 or as soon as possible. The applicants must have documented qualifications in the research areas described below, and a strong interest in algorithm development and testing, as well as in quantification of uncertainties and publication of the results.
The successful candidate will be part of the Department of Research and Development at the DMI (http://www.research.dmi.dk<http://www.research.dmi.dk/>). Main research and development activities are focused on operational weather and ocean prediction, regional and global climate modelling including the cryosphere, as well as remote sensing research and our EUMETSAT satellite application facility (OSISAF).
The Department of Research and Development consists of approx. 60 scientists organized in two sections (Model Development and Climate and Artic Research), the Scientist Position will belong under the Section of Climate and Artic Research.
Job Description
Your research efforts will be part of a dynamic remote sensing group. You will work in research projects under the EU FP7 and H2020 programmes, the ESA's Climate Change Initiative and the EUMETSAT's OSISAF to:
* Develop an optimal estimation framework for retrieving snow/ice/ocean parameters from thermal and microwave satellite radiometer data
* Develop uncertainty models for remote sensing of ice and snow parameters such as sea ice concentrations, ice surface temperature and sea ice emissivity
* Contribute to the development of forward models for inversion applications
* Documentation and publication of all aspects of the research
* Write and contribute to scientific papers as well as project deliverables
Your Competences
We are looking for a candidate with a PhD or similar research background within several of the fields of:
* Application of microwave and infrared remote sensing data
* Statistical inversion methods
* Uncertainty models
* Gaussian error propagation
* Passive microwave and/or infrared radiation
* Forward models
* Programming skills in one or more programming languages (Python, C, Fortran etc.) and experience with Linux is an advantage
A documented level of scientific research of international standard and a documented ability to work in a project team are expected. Experience in working in major research and development projects as well as social skills and a good ability to cooperate with senior scientists both in specific projects and in the day-to-day contact with colleagues. Experience in communicating, both in the form of oral presentation and in writing, is required.
The application must contain a cover letter, a curriculum vitae (including documentation of the applicant's educational history) and a complete list of published works. Relevant scientific works that the applicant wishes to be taken into account should be enclosed (a maximum of 3). Other material documenting research and other relevant activities may also be enclosed.
The DMI offers a flexible working week of 37 hours including a paid lunch break, and 6 weeks of paid vacation annually after one year of employment.

Dear all,
We have an opening for another postdoc working on our HRToF-CIMS. The task
is to do research within the field of SOA using a high-resolution
time-of-flight chemical-ionization mass spectrometer (HRToF-CIMS). The
research tasks are associated with ongoing projects within the group and
includes upcoming measurements in China, traffic emission but also
laboratory studies on SOA formation. We appreciate experienced applicants
that together with current team of seniors/postdocs/Phd students can advance
the frontier on HRToF-CIMS research on SOA.
Details are found on this website: tiny.cc/UGOT_postdoc
Please forward to potential candidates!
/Mattias
