Vacant PhD Position in Numerical Modeling of Atmospheric Chemical Processes at the University of Bonn, Germany

A PhD position is available at the Meteorological Institute of the University of Bonn. Together with another Postdoc student, the applicant will work within a common research project of the Meteorological Institutes of the Universities of Bonn and Mainz and the Max-Planck-Institute for Chemistry in Mainz.
Research field: Numerical modeling of atmospheric chemical processes



Contract:
The research is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).
It is limited to a three year period with a salary TVL 13/2.

Proposed research of the project:
Numerical modeling of chemical processes in the atmosphere is essential to increase our understanding of atmospheric composition and its changes induced by human activity. In recent years, global-scale atmospheric models have been developed that calculate the concentration and processing of atmospheric trace constituents. However, for key problems, e.g. local air quality and long-range transport from local sources, the development of high-resolution models is essential.

In this project such a model will be developed. The model will be driven by consistent meteorological and chemical fields. This will be achieved through an online coupling of the global ECHAM5/MESSy system with the COSMO-model of the German Meteorological Service. First applications of the newly developed model COSMO-MESSy will serve to investigate its capabilities for a detailed analysis of field measurements, the direct simulation of mesoscale chemical perturbations like dust and biomass burning plumes, as well as an assessment and forecast of local air quality.

Qualifications:
Diploma/Master in meteorology, physics, informatics, mathematics or related fields. Experience with numerical modeling of atmospheric processes. Skills in Linux, FORTRAN, IDL or others.

Aplications:
Until end of December 2007 at the address:

Prof. Dr. Andreas Bott
Meteorological Institute
University of Bonn
Auf dem Huegel 20
D-53121 Bonn
