[Oppslist] Post Doctoral Position in Regional Atmospheric Modelling

Post Doctoral Position in Regional Atmospheric Modelling

 

The Waterloo Centre for Atmospheric Sciences (WCAS) has an immediate
position at the Post Doctoral Level in the regional atmospheric modelling
group.  The WCAS modelling group includes Research Associates, Post Doctoral
Fellows and Graduate Students who focus on research into chemical transport
modelling of atmospheric processes in North America.  The group also
includes a meteorologist and a computer systems specialist.  Our modelling
systems include MM5 and WRF for meteorology and the SMOKE/CMAQ CTM system
for chemical transport studies.  Computations are done on a Linux cluster,
which we also use to produce a local weather forecast (see
http://www.forecast.uwaterloo.ca <http://www.forecast.uwaterloo.ca/> ).

 

This project involves the development of capabilities for source-receptor
studies of chemical transport processes.  A variety of options including
inverse modeling and Lagrangian methods are being considered, with a focus
on the identifications of source regions for ozone, mercury and toxic
organic pollutants that affect sensitive receptors.  Applicants with
previous experience in regional atmospheric modelling and chemical transport
model development will be given preference.  Further information on the
technical aspects of the work may be obtained from Professor J.J. Sloan,
WCAS Research Director (http://www.science.uwaterloo.ca/~sloanj).

 

The WCAS is located at the University of Waterloo (http://www.uwaterloo.ca/)
in the Kitchener-Waterloo urban area (http://win.uwaterloo.ca/win/), which
has a population of approximately 250,000, and is surrounded by a pleasant,
mostly agricultural, rural region.
