[ES_JOBS_NET] Research Fellow in Atmospheric Chemistry, University of Birmingham

[Christine Wiedinmyer]

*Research Fellow in Atmospheric Chemistry*

*University of Birmingham*

**

Applications are invited for the post of Postdoctoral Research Fellow in 
Atmospheric Chemistry, in the group of Dr William Bloss at the 
University of Birmingham.  The Research Fellow will contribute to 
ongoing NERC-funded atmospheric chemistry projects in the areas of 
either field and laboratory studies, or numerical modelling :

(i)Measurement of atmospheric ozone production and chemical reaction 
rates, in particular the development of new instrumentation to perform 
in-situ measurements of integrated ozone chemistry in the boundary layer

(ii)Modelling atmospheric chemical processing through the use of 
zero-dimensional photochemical box models (employing the MCM).

The post will be based in Birmingham, and will potentially combine 
aspects of : laboratory work (instrument development and testing) and/or 
field measurements for short periods (1-3 weeks) in the UK and 
potentially overseas and/or model simulations of current and previous 
field data.  The precise balance of duties will depend upon the skills, 
experience and interests of the successful applicant.  The applicant 
will work alongside existing members of the research group (PDRAs, PhD 
students).

The Research Fellow will also be involved with dissemination of project 
results through peer-reviewed journal publications and presentations at 
international conferences, and will be expected to assist in the 
supervision of PhD and MSc students in related areas.  Further details 
of the research group, staff and ongoing projects may be found at:

The post is available from July 2016, or as soon as possible thereafter, 
for a duration of 6 months in the first instance, although there is 
scope to extend the appointment for at least a further 12 months.  
Interviews will be held on Weds 13th July.

Potential candidates are encouraged to contact Dr William (Bill) Bloss 
for informal discussions, via email to w.j.bloss at bham.ac.uk
