[Johnny Chan]

Professor/Associate Professor/Assistant Professor
Department of Physics and Materials Science
City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China

Applications are invited from outstanding candidates for Assistant 
Professor and higher positions.  The Department has a strong 
Laboratory for Atmospheric Research that currently focuses on the 
following areas: tropical meteorology and climate, environmental 
modeling and atmospheric remote sensing.  New research areas in 
mesoscale meteorology and boundary-layer meteorology are 
planned.  Details of our research can be found at 
http://weather.cityu.edu.hk/.  The University recently set up a Joint 
Laboratory for Atmospheric Research with the Institute of Atmospheric 
Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to enhance our research 
strength in the area of atmospheric sciences.

A Ph.D, in atmospheric science/meteorology or related disciplines 
together with a promising research record and a strong teaching 
ability are required.  Successful candidates are expected to develop 
new research directions and courses.  Preference will be given to 
candidates with expertise in the following two areas: (a) mesoscale 
meteorology and (b) boundary-layer meteorology/computational fluid 
dynamics applications in the study of flow over complex terrain and 
complex city structures in relation to pollutant dispersion and 
transport.  Expertise in other areas will also be 
considered.  Appointment will be on a fixed-term contract with 
contract-end gratuity.   Fringe benefits include annual leave, 
medical and dental schemes, and housing benefits where applicable.

Applications will be considered until positions are filled.
