Atmospheric science, Professor Mattias Hallquist, University of Gothenburg
Specific subject description
The aim of this project is to quantify, understand and provide tools to
describe atmospheric oxidation of organic compounds. This oxidation is
important to understand formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) but
also the generally production of oxygenated compounds that can effect air
quality both in outdoor and indoor environments. Aerosol particles are
crucial components in any evaluation process regarding air quality and
climate change. SOA represents a significant fraction of the tropospheric
aerosol. Still, the current level of understanding of SOA processes is
remarkably low compared to other processes in aerosol science, i.e. modelled
SOA based on experimental findings and existing theory does not capture the
variability of observed SOA loadings and often predicts far less SOA than
observed. It has been indicated that biogenic SOA can be largely affected by
anthropogenic pollutants, i.e. NO2, SO2 or organic compounds e.g. aromatics
and aldehydes. The effect of anthropogenic pollutants may explain part of
the discrepancy between models and field observations. Specifically, this
project applies high resolution mass spectroscopy techniques for detailed
analysis of gas and particle phase to elucidate chemical mechanisms of
importance for atmospheric SOA. A specific aim is how to link SOA mechanisms
to model developments for descriptions in air quality and climate models.
The experiments will primarily be conducted using our high-resolution
time-of-flight chemical-ionization mass spectrometer in combination with
inlets separating particle and gas phase for characterization of organic
compositions. (FIGAERO-CIMS)
Job assignments
Research in atmospheric chemistry using high resolution mass spectrometry
with chemical ionization. The experimental studies can be carried out both
in our laboratory but also in the field to study the emissions and secondary
transformation of organic compounds in both indoor and outdoor environments.
In addition to work in Sweden one is expected to participate in our
international collaboration projects, currently with emphasis on India,
China, Germany and the UK. The work involves a great deal of analysis and
evaluation of measurement data for the understanding and quantification of
atmospheric oxidation of organic substances.
Eligibility
The qualifications for academic positions are given in Chapter 4, Section 3
- 4 of the Higher Education Ordinance.
To qualify as a postdoctoral fellow, the applicant must have completed a
doctoral degree corresponding to a Swedish doctoral degree.
Preference will be given to candidates who have been awarded the degree no
more than three years before the application deadline Applicants with a
degree obtained earlier than the stipulated three years may be preferred if
special reasons exists. Special reasons in this context include, but are not
limited to, leave due to illness and parental leave.
A requirement is experience in mass spectroscopy with atmospheric
application demonstrated by international publications in peer-reviewed
journals and experimental work.
Preferences will be given to candidates that have experience in working with
a high-resolution time-of-flight chemical-ionization mass spectrometer
(HRToF-CIMS), where also previous experience on air quality studies in
Beijing or Hong Kong are beneficial.
Assessment
Regulations for the evaluation of qualifications for academic positions are
given in Chapter 4, Section 3 - 4 of the Higher Education Ordinance.
Experience in working with a high-resolution time-of-flight
chemical-ionization mass spectrometer (HRToF-CIMS) with applications on
atmospheric chemistry. Previous experience on air quality studies in Beijing
or Hong Kong.
The research group
Our atmospheric science constellation is unique in Sweden in that it takes a
molecular approach to transport and reaction processes in the atmosphere. A
unifying focus is the study of aerosols, with activities ranging from
fundamental studies of chemical reactions on the molecular level, to applied
work including field studies of atmospheric processes, their importance to
current climate and air quality research. The research contributes to
developments in the fields of colloidal chemistry, nanotechnology, medicine
as well as development of traffic related chemistry and sustainable
development in developing countries.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
We are inviting applications for a three-year PhD studentship in the
field of regional and urban climate modelling at the
Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (Germany):
Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Department of Geography
Research fellow with expected 75% of the regular working hours – monthly
salary equivalent to E 13 TV-L HU (third party funding, short-term for
three years)
Job description: The successful applicant will advance the understanding
of the climate of Berlin, Germany, and its intra-urban variability. For
this task, the regional climate model COSMO-CLM coupled to the urban
parametrization scheme DCEP will be employed. In this project, DCEP will
be extended by adding a building energy module for the simulation of
building energy consumption and anthropogenic heat release as well as
indoor air temperatures. Furthermore, the effectiveness of heat-related
hazard reducing actions under the effects of global climate change will
be investigated. In collaboration with the climatology group at TU
Berlin, the successful applicant will evaluate, which scales and
meteorological variables are suited best for heat risk analysis. The
successful applicant will work on her/his research qualification
(dissertation).
Requirements: Applicants must hold a MSc in geography or neighbouring
fields with core competencies in either physical geography, meteorology,
physics or similar. Knowledge of urban climate as well as regional and
urban climate modelling is advantageous. Experience with programming,
preferably in Fortran, is a prerequisite. Excellent mastery of English
and sufficient knowledge of German in both written and oral form are
required.
Please send your application (by providing a motivation letter,
curriculum vitae, copies of certificates and documents as well as
information on scientific publications and names of two referees) within
2 weeks and quoting the reference number DR/158/16 to
Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche
Fakultät, Geographisches Institut, Dr. Schubert (Sitz: Rudower Chaussee
16), Unter den Linden 6, 10099 Berlin or via e-mail as a PDF attachment

HU is seeking to increase the proportion of women in research and
teaching, and specifically encourages qualified female scholars to
apply. Severely disabled applicants with equivalent qualifications will
be given preferential consideration. People with an immigration
background are specifically encouraged to apply. Since we will not
return your documents, please only submit copies in the application.
