The research group „Atmospheric Transport Processes“, led by Prof. Andreas Stohl, is part of the Department of Meteorology and Geophysics. The group develops the Lagrangian transport model FLEXPART and studies all aspects of transport in the atmosphere, ranging from greenhouse gases to pollutants, water vapour and heat, and uses inverse modelling techniques to determine sources of greenhouse gases, radionuclides, or air pollutants. We seek a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher, who will contribute to the research conducted in our team.
Your tasks
- Contribute to the maintenance and further development of the Lagrangian transport model FLEXPART
- Using FLEXPART, conduct research on topics that you can select yourself within the general interests of our group
- Write and contribute to project applications and the acquisition of third-party funding, and help to manage projects
- Provide scientific and technical support to team members, FLEXPART co-developers, PhD and master students
- Teach independently within the scope of the provisions of the collective bargaining agreement, including the co-supervision of BSc and MSc theses
- Publish scientific results in peer-reviewed journals
- Strengthen the collaborative culture of our team and the Department
Your profile
Required:
- Completed Ph.D. / Doctoral degree in the atmospheric sciences (e.g., meteorology, climatology), or a related field
- Strong programming skills
- Data analysis and interpretation experience that is guided by theoretical/physical understanding and not only by application of statistical methods or artificial intelligence
- A good team spirit and willingness to collaborate
- Very good command of the English language
Advantageous:
- Experience with Lagrangian transport models
- Expert knowledge of programming, preferably in Python and/or Fortran
Your benefits:
- A longer-than-average postdoctoral contract with freedom to choose your specialized research topics
