”Atmospheric Physics” as defined here include studies of the stratosphere,
mesosphere and lower thermosphere, the coupling between these, as well as
the coupling to the climate system as a whole. Main tasks are research and
to some extent teaching and supervision. Research in Atmospheric Physics at
the Department of Meteorology encompasses today dynamic coupling, radiative
interaction, chemical composition and particle processes in the altitude
range 10-150 km. The research builds on engagements in major projects
involving sounding rockets, satellite and lidar, as well as related
theoretical and modeling studies. 

 

An associate senior lecturer is normally employed for 4 years. An associate
senior lecturer can apply for promotion to a tenured position as senior
lecturer. 

 

Qualification requirements: A person who has been awarded a Ph.D. is
qualified for employment as an associate university lecturer. Preference is

given to scientific proficiency. Some weight will also be given to teaching
proficiency. When merits are similar according to the general criteria, the
following should be considered as special merits: ability to teach in a
broad range of the departmental curriculum, documented experience of
combining experimental and modeling activities, documented experience of
working with processes coupling the stratosphere, mesosphere and
thermosphere.

 

Information regarding the position can be provided by the Head of the
Department of Meteorology, Professor Michael Tjernstrom, telephone e-mail
michaelt at misu.su.se. Questions regarding application process  and
