The Air Quality Research Division invites applications for the position of an NSERC Visiting Fellowship in Canadian Government Laboratories (Post-Doctoral Fellow) for a one year term with the possibility of renewal for up to 2 additional years upon mutual agreement (see attached also).
The focus of the research will be on the formation of oxidized products, including Secondary Organic Aerosol (SOA) via semi- and intermediate volatility organics derived from unconventional oil and gas extraction. The work will include focused laboratory and field studies. The laboratory component of the research project will involve the use of flow tubes and/or smog chambers, with advanced gas and aerosol instrumentation (HR-ToF-AMS, HR-ToF-CIMS, HR-ToF-PTR-MS, SMPS) to study the oxidation and chemical interaction between organic gases and aerosols under realistic atmospheric conditions. Field studies exploring the atmospheric transformations of primary organic emissions from the oil and gas sector will also be conducted. The successful candidate will work closely with university collaborators and scientists at Environment Canada.
A Ph.D. in chemistry, atmospheric sciences, environmental engineering, or a related discipline is required. Demonstrated skills in experimental atmospheric chemistry/physics are also required. Experience with advanced gas and aerosol instrumentation use (Chemical ionization mass spectrometry (CIMS), Aerosol mass spectrometry (AMS), SMPS), computer programming, and/or complex data analysis is highly desirable. Prior experience with field measurements is also desirable.
The successful candidate must have the ability to travel to field studies for periods of up to 6 weeks, to work in a team environment and with multiple collaborators. A demonstrated ability to publish in the peer-reviewed literature is essential.
Qualified candidates are requested to send their curriculum vitae, including a full list of publications and conference presentations, their date of availability and contact information for 3 references to Dr. John Liggio by e-mail (John.Liggio@ec.gc.ca).
Successful candidates must be included in the inventory of Canada's Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) Visiting Fellowships in Canadian Government Laboratories Program prior to their selection for the position. Applications to the inventory can be made through the link below.
http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Students-Etudiants/PD-NP/Laboratories-Laboratoires/index_eng.asp
Review of complete applications will begin immediately until the position is filled.
To be eligible, the candidate must have obtained a PhD within the past 5 yrs. Environment Canada's Air Quality Research Division studies the chemistry and physics of the atmosphere as it pertains to a variety of atmospheric pollution problems.

The Department of Physical Oceanography at CICESE (Ensenada, Baja
California) is seeking a postdoctoral scholar to work on transport and
dispersion problems in the coastal ocean. The ideal candidate is expected
to hold a Ph.D. in physical oceanography or a closely related field, and
have a solid understanding of coastal ocean circulation physics. While the
position is based in Ensenada, the research is part of a large
observational program with collaborators at numerous U.S. Institutions
including the University of California Santa Barbara and Woods Hole
Oceanographic Institution.
Understanding of the physical processes that control the transport and
dispersion of material in the coastal ocean is important for the
management of coastal ecosystems and pollution, including spilled oil. As
part of SENER-CONACYT Hydrocarbon Fund the aim of the project is the
analysis of potential consequences of large-scale oil spills under
different circulation scenarios. The project is observationally based with
focus on Lagrangian observations. Surface drifter and dye experiments will
be performed to observe submesoscale processes under different wind and
surface wave forcing conditions. A pilot experiment will be conducted off
the coast of Santa Barbara during late Fall 2015. Subsequent fieldwork
will take place in 2016 and 2017 off the coast of Brownsville, TX in the
Gulf of Mexico. The postdoctoral candidate is expected to participate in
all aspects of the field program including preparation, data collection,
and data analysis. In addition he/she will synthesize results, formulate
conclusions, and present the work at international scientific meetings and
in the form of scientific publications.
Preference will be give to candidates with experience collecting and
analyzing tracer data (i.e. drifters and dye). The ability to generate
data analysis codes using tools such as Matlab, Fortran, and Python is
required. The position requires clear communication (both orally and in
writing) in the English language. The successful candidate will work
fulltime at CICESE (Ensenada, Baja California). The initial appointment is
for roughly 1.5 years, with the possibility of extension for 3 additional
years depending on continued funding.
Interested candidates are invited to submit a cover letter, curriculum
vitae with full contact information, and names and contact information of
three references to Dr. Enric Pall?s Sanz (epallas@cicese.mx).
