In coordination with the group head (Mathias Rotach), s/he will also be encouraged to develop her/his own research activities within the general field of activities of the group. The main focus of the position will be the continuation of a boundary layer research infrastructure in complex terrain (so-called i-Box), further development of post-processing approaches and tools and further progress in our understanding of turbulent exchange processes in complex terrain. Regular duties will include teaching at undergraduate (B.Sc.) and/or graduate (M.Sc.) levels as well as research training for PhD students in the group. In certain job specification systems the job description corresponds to an assistant professor level without tenure track. Candidates with strong background in the experimental exploration of boundary layer processes are especially encouraged to apply.
QUALIFICATIONS, SKILLS AND REQUIREMENTS: A Ph.D. in meteorology, atmospheric science or a related field; experience in experimental methods for boundary layer meteorology advantageous; knowledge and experience in scientific programming, background in atmospheric processes in complex terrain, experience in project management and field activities; experience and/or interest in university level teaching; strong verbal and written communication skills, and good knowledge of the English language are required (knowledge of German is welcome but not required). Independence, strong problem-solving skills, and an ability to work efficiently as part of a team are essential.
SALARY: Salary is determined by the salary system of the University of Innsbruck and can be commensurate with professional qualifications and experience of the successful candidate. In addition the rules of the Austrian employment law apply.

A PhD studentship is available from October 2015 at Imperial College London. The project aims to quantify the impact of integrating urban green infrastructure (vegetated areas, green roofs, facades etc.) with blue infrastructure (urban water) on the local microclimate (temperature, humidity, air quality) in urban areas by means of high resolution large-eddy simulation.
This project will focus on the development of a large-eddy simulation code capable of determining the local microclimate in an urban area and how blue-green solutions are able to modify this. A particular focus of the project will be to incorporate effects of trees and bushes. The project will involve incorporating physics-based models for the interaction between the vegetation and water in an existing large-eddy simulation model for atmospheric flow over urban areas. The PhD will involve a blend of fundamental studies (such as flows through street canyons with vegetation) and realistic case studies, which will be validated with results from full-scale experimental facilities which are currently operational.
Applicants should:
a. Hold or expect to hold an MSc/MEng in engineering (civil, mechanical, aeronautics etc.), meteorology or physics;
b. be a citizen of the EU;
c. Have a background in numerical modelling and programming. Experience with high performance computing is beneficial but not strictly required;
For further details of the PhD programme or an informal discussion contact Dr Maarten van Reeuwijk (m.vanreeuwijk@imperial.ac.uk<mailto:m.vanreeuwijk@imperial.ac.uk>).
