<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif;color:#333333;background:white">The Atmospheric Processes Research Section (APRS) of the Research Division (RD) conducts research needed to efficiently achieve the National Ambient Air
Quality Standards (NAAQS) and California’s climate change mitigation goals. Research conducted under APRS supports the development of the State Implementation Plans (SIPs), evaluates the short-lived climate pollutant (SLCP) emission reduction strategies, improves
the characterization of various air pollutant emission sources, and takes preemptive steps to study the effects of climate change on California’s air quality. The APRS leverages scientific knowledge, internal air monitoring and analysis capabilities, contracts,
and partnerships with various stakeholders to improve the robustness of CARB’s policy and regulatory decisions.</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif;color:#333333"><br>
<br>
<span style="background:white">Under the close supervision of the APRS Air Resources Supervisor I, the Air Pollution Specialist (APS) will work with various stakeholders to design and manage research studies that address California’s emerging air quality and
climate change mitigation challenges. The APS will use and develop sophisticated analysis techniques (e.g., CTMs, source apportionment models), in-house measurement tools (e.g., mobile measurement platforms), and or various databases (e.g., emission inventory,
satellite remote sensing) to study urban sources (e.g. consumer products), agricultural operations (e.g. dairies), and or exceptional events (e.g. wildfires) that are related to air pollution. The topic of research will evolve based on the agency’s needs.
Additional duties include stakeholder engagement; development of guidance documents for future research projects; presentations to technical and non-technical stakeholders; and leading and or assisting field campaigns.</span></span><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
