<p class="MsoNormal">The newly-formed Christiansen lab at the University of Missouri – Kansas City is seeking 1-2
<b>graduate students</b> (MS or interdisciplinary PhD) to work on questions regarding urban air quality and environmental/climate justice to begin in Fall 2023. Potential research areas include low-cost air quality sensor implementation and evaluation, investigation
of environmental and climate justice via observations and atmospheric chemistry models, constraining emissions or processes in atmospheric models, or other topics mutually agreed upon. The student will work with Dr. Amy Christiansen and will learn how to run
and analyze output from global and regional atmospheric chemistry model simulations, analyze observational data from measurement networks, write peer-reviewed journal articles, and present work at conferences.
