<h3>Department of Atmospheric Science</h3>
<h2>Associate Research Scientist - #4778
</h2>
</div>
<br>
<br>
<p>The Department of Atmospheric Science at the University of
Wyoming has an opening for an individual with demonstrated
capabilities and productivity in aerosol physics, aerosol
measurement, and in analysis of the impact of aerosol on
atmospheric radiation and chemistry. The successful candidate
will have an earned Ph.D. in atmospheric science or a closely
related field, will have demonstrated research capabilities, and
will have the potential to contribute to current stratospheric
balloon-borne measurement programs at the University of Wyoming,
through the collection of in situ measurements and their
scientific analysis. There are also opportunities to contribute
to aircraft-borne in situ aerosol measurements and to work in
the Keck aerosol laboratory.</p>
<p>The successful candidate will build upon existing stratospheric
measurement capabilities at the University to both extend the
University's long term measurement program, and to push it in
new directions. The ideal candidate would be an early to
mid-career scientist at the associate research scientist level
with demonstrated ability to work independently, with expertise
and accomplishments in research on stratospheric aerosol
measurements and their impact on the atmosphere, with experience
with aerosol and chemical measurements, especially on
balloon-borne platforms, and with the capability and energy to
lead the in situ stratospheric measurements at the University
while promoting their scientific use in atmospheric composition
and climate change studies. This research position is funded for
one to two years with the potential for extension, contingent on
department needs and resources, on accomplishments, and on
success with external funding.</p>
<p>Applications should include a statement of research interests,
and accomplishments, curriculum vita, and the names and contact
information of three references. Send an electronic copy (PDF
version preferred) of your application materials to Search
Committee, Department of Atmospheric Science, University of
Wyoming, c/o <b>Terry Deshler</b>: <a
href="mailto:deshler@uwyo.edu">deshler@uwyo.edu</a>. The
search committee will begin reviewing applications on <b>1
October 2013</b> and will continue until the position is
filled.</p>
<p>The Department of Atmospheric Science is one of six in the
College of Engineering and Applied Science, concentrating
principally on research and graduate education, with strengths
in the study of precipitation, cloud and aerosol physics,
stratospheric aerosols and gases, boundary layer processes, and
regional and global climate modeling. Our core facilities
include the Stratospheric Balloon Facility, the NSF supported
King Air research aircraft, the Keck Aerosol Laboratory, and the
Mobile Air Quality Laboratory. </p>
