Job and Assistantship Opportunities

The University of Georgia Atmospheric Biogeosciences program (Laboratory for Environmental Physics) has an opening for a post-doctoral associate (renewable yearly) and a PhD student.

** Post-doctoral position **

The successful applicant has a Ph.D. degree in atmospheric sciences or in a related field. The applicant has experience in one or more of the three following areas: 1. Boundary-layer instrumentation of turbulence, fluxes, and trace gases; atmospheric field measurements of surface-atmosphere exchange of greenhouse gases, including atmospheric CO2, soil CO2 sensors, tracers, sodars/RASS, airborne measurements 2. High-level signal processing methods such as the Hilbert-Huang transforms and the wavelet transforms; micrometeorological data analysis 3. Modeling of surface atmosphere exchange 4. Atmospheric modeling from the microscale to the regional scale. The applicant is expected to help develop the group. He/She will be expected to also contribute to the proposal funding and writing scientific publications.

The group works with scientists from several major universities, national laboratories, and with European, Canadian, South American, and Asian universities. The salary is competitive and commensurate with experience. The position is open until a suitable candidate is selected.

** PhD student position **

The University of Georgia Atmospheric Biogeosciences program has an opening to one PhD student in the areas mentioned above.

The Griffin Campus is located in a bucolic environment, 40 min from the Atlanta Hartsfield International Airport, less than one hour from downtown Atlanta, and approximately three hours from the ocean.
