Senior Research Associate - Modelling Air Pollution in Beijing
Lancaster Environment Centre, Lancaster University
Grade 7: £32,600 to £37,768
Closing Date: Monday 30th May
Applications are invited for a Senior Postdoctoral Research Associate at
the Lancaster Environment Centre to model air pollution emissions and
processing in Beijing as part of the NERC/Newton Fund programme "Air
Pollution and Human Health in a Chinese Megacity".
The project will apply newly-developed nested regional models of atmospheric
chemistry and transport to investigate the key emission sources contributing
to poor air quality, the role of haze in altering chemical processing of
pollutants, and the downscaling of air pollution models to the street level
to allow assessment of health impacts. The underlying goals are to develop
a better understanding of pollution formation, to improve predictive
capability, and to inform mitigation options. The project involves national
and international collaborators and will involve travel to work with Chinese
scientists in Beijing.
You should have (or be about to complete) a PhD in atmospheric science,
meteorology or a related quantitative discipline. You should have experience
in developing and running numerical models, and in data analysis. Experience
with air pollution models, radiation schemes, and model evaluation against
complex observational datasets would be an advantage. You should have
demonstrated independence, good communication skills and a willingness to
work effectively in a multidisciplinary international environment. You will
be expected to present results at national and international meetings and
to write up results for publication in leading scientific journals.
This is a fixed term post for up to 30 months starting in October 2016 or
at a mutually agreed date. Informal enquiries should be directed to Oliver
Wild (o.wild@lancaster.ac.uk).

We are looking for a researcher (Msc or PhD level) who can contribute to a project where Earth observation (EO) will be used to support the development work done by international financial institutions in the domain of agriculture. The ideal candidate should have an analytical mind (to co-design EO-based agricultural services together with EU industry), be engaging (to interact and meet with various local and international stakeholders), and have didactic and organizational skills (to develop EO capacity building material and train the stakeholders). We offer a 1-year contract renewable for another year - based upon satisfactory performance and organizational needs. Interested candidates can directly contact me (r.zurita-milla@utwente.nl<mailto:r.zurita-milla@utwente.nl>) for further information.

You will examine how heat and carbon are taken up over the global ocean using a suite of ocean and climate models. You will test a hypothesis that the ocean controls how surface warming nearly linearly increases with carbon emissions, which is a relationship that has emerged from climate models. You will apply our new theory to explore the ocean heat and carbon uptake, addressing their similarities and differences and their effects on this climate relationship. A hierarchy of ocean and climate model experiments will be conducted ranging from simplified idealised domains to realistic global configurations. You will join a research team based at Liverpool University together with collaborative partners at Southampton University, the UK Hadley Centre and GFDL at Princeton, USA. You should have a PhD in physical oceanography, meteorology or fluid dynamics (or equivalent research experience), a first degree in a numerate physical or environmental science or mathematics with experience in numerical ocean modelling. You will be skilled at model analysis and ideally model development with an aptitude for theoretical investigation. You will be expected to publish in the relevant peer reviewed literature. The post is available for 2 years, until 31 August 2018.
