[ES_JOBS_NET] Postdoc Position in Atmospheric Chemistry

[Emily Fischer]

Hi Everyone-
There is a postdoc position open on a new collaborative project. See below.


*Postdoctoral Position in Atmospheric Chemistry/Physics at NCAT*

*Qualifications*: PhD in Experimental Atmospheric Chemistry/Physics or
related areas (Environmental Chemistry, Chemical engineering, Chemistry)
with experience in aerosol optical and chemical properties research and
operation of smog chambers and lasers.

Other expected skills: LabVIEW programing, Igor Programing. Modeling
experience will be desirable.

The selected candidate is expected to conduct research, mentor and
supervise graduate students, get involved in proposal writing and
coordinate student training and collaborations among North Carolina A&T
State University, Colorado State University, Howard University and
Aerodyne. The collaborating institutions will perform research that
include: (1) Controlled laboratory measurements of optical properties of
biomass burning (BB) aerosols as a function of photochemical aging, burning
and meteorological conditions using the NCAT facility; (2) the
implementation of updated smoke emission factors and optical properties
measured at NCAT in the GEOS-Chem chemical-transport model to produce
better estimates of the health and climate impacts of smoke; (3) collection
of filter samples of dust-smoke mixtures aboard  NOAA research vessels, to
measure the optical properties of these aerosol mixtures and estimate the
contributions from biomass smoke. (4) There is a possibility of
participation in biomass-burning related field work in summer 2019.

*Salary*- Competitive with full benefits available to NC University System
employees

*Position* for 1-year renewable for a second year.
