Stellenausschreibungen
Within the project "Links between local scale and catchment scale
measurements and modelling of gas exchange processes over land
surfaces" funded by the German Research Foundation (Deutsche
Forschungsgemeinschaft), we invite applications for 1 PhD Student position.
The position is funded for 36 months. The working location will be Bonn
but includes frequent visits to Jülich and Wageningen.
This project, a collaboration between the University of Bonn, Germany,
University of Wageningen, The Netherlands, Meteorology and Air Quality
Department and the Research Centre Jülich, aims at bridging the gap
between the local scale where exchange processes happen at the land
surface, to the scales which are suitable to describe and model these
transports in the atmospheric environment.
The project will approach this problem by an integrated methodology
combining a set of different local measurement techniques with boundary
layer scale estimates ranging from traditional techniques up to modern
remote sensing tools and a suite of modelling approaches encompassing
the atmospheric boundary layer. The candidate will mainly focus on the
modelling part by utilizing different SVAT models in combination with
bulk-models of the atmospheric boundary layer.
The potential candidate should have a master or diploma in meteorology,
physics, geography or related disciplines and good knowledge of the
English language. A sound knowledge in programming, boundary-layer
meteorology and related models would be advantageous.
Women are especially encouraged to apply and the DFG is able to provide
means for a successful combination of career and family requirements.
Review of applications starts immediately and continues until the
position is filled. Applicants should send a letter of motivation and a
CV including, if applicable, a brief account of their research
experience, a list of publications, and the contact information of up to
three references to
Prof. Dr. Clemens Simmer, Meteorological Institute, Rheinische
