Position Summary

The department of Environmental Sciences and Engineering at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill seeks an energetic, motivated, post-doctoral researcher for model development projects aimed at improving predictions from regional and global scale air quality modeling systems. Research activities will be focused on the formation of fine particulate matter via oxidation of biogenic volatile organic compounds and subsequent acid-catalyzed multiphase chemistry. The proposed work will involve collaborations with Dr. Jason Surratt utilizing new experimental kinetic data generated from his chamber experiments to constrain current AQM parameters, or develop new model algorithms. AQM development work will include collaborations with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and National Center for Atmospheric Research scientists.
Educational Requirements

Doctoral degree in Environmental Sciences and Engineering, or related field.
Qualifications and Experience

The successful candidate should have a background in atmospheric chemistry, is proficient in a programming language, and is comfortable in a UNIX environment. Experience with regional or global scale air quality models is also preferred.
