POST-DOCTORAL POSITIONS - Atmospheric Remote Sounding

Department of Physics, University of Toronto

Applications are invited for Post-Doctoral Fellowships in atmospheric remote
sounding. Current projects include ground-based Fourier transform infrared
spectroscopy, the Polar Environment Atmospheric Research Laboratory at Eureka,
the MANTRA balloon mission, the Canadian Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment
satellite mission, the SWIFT stratospheric winds mission, and laboratory
spectroscopy.

These positions will involve one or more of the following: instrument design,
software development, spectroscopy, field measurements, radiative transfer
modelling, retrieval methods, validation of satellite measurements, and data
analysis and interpretation. Candidates should have a recent Ph.D. in
atmospheric science, physics, chemistry, engineering, or a related field.

The Atmospheric Physics group at the University of Toronto has an active
program in remote sounding, along with complementary research strengths in
climate modeling and climate processes, chemical transport modeling, and
geophysical fluid dynamics. More information on our research activities can be
found at http://www.atmosp.physics.utoronto.ca/.

Applications should be sent to Prof. Kimberly Strong, Department of Physics,
University of Toronto, 60 St. George Street, Toronto, ON, CANADA, M5S 1A7, fax:

should also arrange to have two letters of reference sent to the above address.
Consideration of applications will begin immediately and the appointments will
be made as soon as possible after January 1, 2006.

The University of Toronto is strongly committed to diversity within its
