Postdoctoral scientist: Anthropogenic CH4 emissions estimation at the Northern Arizona University, USA.
Join an exciting Northern Arizona University research team (https://gurneylab.nau.edu/) in beautiful Flagstaff, Arizona doing cutting-edge research on quantifying GHG and local air pollution emissions at multiple scales from the building to the globe. This research uses existing systems (Vulcan - https://vulcan.rc.nau.edu/ and Hestia – https://hestia.rc.nau.edu) developed in the Gurney Lab over the past 20 years. This postdoctoral position will build-out anthropogenic methane (CH4) emissions at multiple scales within the US domain using “bottom-up” techniques but linking and collaborating with researchers estimating CH4 emissions from the “top-down”.
The deadline for applications is 19 June 2023 but applications will be reviewed on an ongoing basis until a suitable candidate is hired. More info here.
