Research Scientist Aerosol-Cloud Interaction
Researcher air quality modelling reference 132
The air quality research unit of SMHI is responsible for research, method and model development within air quality, atmospheric chemistry, emissions, transport, physical and chemical transformation as well as deposition of air pollutants. Methods and models are applied to environmental problems in Sweden and internationally.
We are looking for an atmospheric scientist with specialty in aerosols and their influence on the atmospheres radiative properties, to work principally with climate studies. The research area requires expertise in both cloud microphysics and aerosol-chemistry.
Your task will be to develop numerical schemes to describe key aerosol-cloud interactions both in regional and global climate models. The work will be carried out in collaboration with Swedish universities and European groups working within the EC-Earth climate modelling consortium.
Your profile:
You will have expert knowledge of atmospheric aerosols and cloud microphysics, preferably with a PhD or similar in meteorology, atmospheric science or a related discipline. You will be familiar with large numerical modelling systems, with experience in developing and evaluating parameterizations and appropriate numerical schemes.
A good knowledge of written and spoken English is required along with a clear willingness to learn Swedish.
Desired additional qualifications:
Experience in aerosol modelling.
Experience in cloud micro-physics modelling.
Research experience within the areas of atmospheric aerosols and/or cloud microphysics.
Experience of directing research and supervising PhD students.
Possess contacts and experience of co-operation with international research teams within the areas of atmospheric aerosols and/or cloud microphysics, being part of an established circle of research contacts and visible through scientific publications.
Experience of Fortran and Unix/Linux script programming.
You like to work in a team, have a good ability to cooperate combined with dedication and initiative.
If you need more information:
Please contact head of air quality unit Lars Gidhagen or Karin Aspeqvist, staff department. Trade-union representatives are Barry Broman and Lennart Robertson. They can be contacted by phone +46 11 495 80 00 or by e-mail firstname.surname@smhi.se.
Your application:
Please send in your application up to March 5 2010 and marked with Ref nr. 132, either by email to registrator@smhi.se or by ordinary mail to Regstrator, SMHI, SE-601 76 Norrköping, Sweden.
SMHI strives for diversity where our employees background, experiences, knowledge and personality enrich the work. SMHI will give information about the status of this vacancy on www.smhi.se.
