[ES_JOBS_NET] Research scientist in HYSPLIT wildfire modeling, GMU CSISS/NOAA ARL

[Wei-Ting Hung]

Wildfire Research Scientist

George Mason University and the NOAA Air Resources Laboratory (ARL) are seeking applicants for a Research Scientist at the Cooperative Institute of Satellite Earth System Studies (CISESS) to work with the Atmospheric Transport and Dispersion modeling group at ARL in the NOAA Center for Weather & Climate Prediction (NCWCP) in College Park, MD.

The successful candidate will perform research related to evaluating and improving the transport and dispersion modeling of wildfire emissions, including multi-day fire behavior and propagation, emissions speciation, plume rise, and atmospheric fate and transport processes of emitted pollutants. The ideal candidate will have experience in wildfire research and be familiar with the HYSPLIT atmospheric transport and dispersion model and/or other comparable models. The Research Scientist will be expected to publish the results of their research in high-quality, peer-reviewed journals, and make professional presentations at conferences, seminars, and other internal NOAA meetings. The incumbent is also expected to collaborate with other GMU researchers, as well as NOAA Air Resources Laboratory researchers in carrying out this wildfire R&D.

The position is available from January 2023 for 2 years, once filled, with funding available for additional time, dependent on availability of resources and performance.

Requirements: Successfully completed a Masters or Doctoral degree in meteorology, geosciences, atmospheric science, atmospheric physics, atmospheric chemistry, or a sub-field of physical geosciences.
