POSTDOCTORAL ASSISTANTSHIP AVAILABLE
MICROMETEROLOGY, PURDUE UNIVERSITY
Multiple Postdoctoral Assistantships are available to participate in a
two year project entitled "National Air Emissions Monitoring Study"
designed to provide quality-assured ammonia and hydrogen sulfide
emission data for representative animal feeding operations in the U.S.A.
The results of the study will be used by the U.S. E.P.A. to determine
which agricultural operations are subject to the regulatory provisions
of the Clean Air Act (CAA) and the reporting requirements of the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
(CERCLA) and Emergency Planning and Community Right to Know Act (EPCRA).
The postdoctoral researcher will supervise field micrometeorological
measurements made on a rotating basis at five farms. Open-path
broadband spectroscopic gas concentration measurement methods, wind
profiles, turbulence and associated lagoon/manure and meteorological
measurements will be made to determine the emissions of ammonia and
hydrogen sulfide from lagoons and manure piles using Lagrangian
and Eulerian models.
QUALIFICATIONS: Doctoral degree in agricultural or environmental
engineering, air quality, or agricultural, micrometeorological or air
pollution meteorology. Experience in micrometeorological or air quality
field measurements is desirable. Willingness to be on paid travel for
at least 21 weeks a year.
The position is available as of November 1 2006. Positions are for 2 œ
years with adequate performance reviews. Salary commensurate with
experience. Interested persons should send or email an up-to-date
resume, list of publications, statement of professional goals, and names
of three references to Dr. Richard H. Grant, Dept. of Agronomy, Purdue
University, 915 W. State St.,W. Lafayette, IN, USA 47907-2054,
rgrant@purdue.edu, tel: 765-494-8048, fax 765-496-2926. Purdue
University is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer.
