2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 From: Tjarda Roberts <tjarda.roberts@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Dear Colleagues, I am writing to advertise a PhD position on The Atmospheric Chemistry of Volcanic Emission Plumes. This interdisciplinary PhD is fully funded (3 years salary) with Dr Tjarda Roberts and colleagues at CNRS laboratories LPC2E-ICARE-ISTO at Orléans and in collaboration with LATMOS-LMD in Paris, France. The planned start date is Autumn 2021. Applications will be reviewed starting from early June until the position is filled. Further information: We seek a highly motivated PhD student to study the atmospheric chemistry processes that occur in a volcanic plume, ranging from the hot crater emission-source to the dispersed downwind plume. The PhD project will involve a combination of analyses of large observational datasets and numerical modelling of the plume chemistry, and includes the opportunity to participate to field-work at an active volcano. Candidates should be motivated to undertake exploratory and highly quantitative studies in this novel interdisciplinary field of atmospheric chemistry combined with volcanology. For further information on the PhD and wider project activities see our website http://volcanichalogens.cnrs.fr/ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://volcanichalogens.cnrs.fr/__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!LnSPcvySuw444LMO-FoeGiNZuZVHZGffIssNdsO1btPsDUsGuFS5MLlUeMfZWHo$>. Strongly interested candidates are welcome to discuss further with Dr Tjarda Roberts (Tjarda.Roberts@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx). The candidate should have a masterâ??s degree in a numerate science, some research experience, and interests in atmospheric chemistry and volcano processes and the interdisciplinary link between them. She/he/they should enjoy to make exploratory analyses to identify patterns in observational datasets of gases and particles, and working on developing numerical models to quantify atmospheric processes in volcanic plumes, with skills in computer programming and analysis of large datasets (and/or aptitude to learn all these things). A good level of written and spoken English is needed, as well as the ability to write up research results in scientific papers (training will be given) and strong motivation to undertake a PhD. Application should include CV, motivation letter including a description of studies and research to date and motivations for applying for this PhD topic, contacts of one (or two) senior scientists who can recommend the candidate, and marks from degrees. Applications should be made on the university website https://collegedoctoral-cvl.fr/as/ed/voirproposition.pl?site=CDCVL&matricule_prop=37515 <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://collegedoctoral-cvl.fr/as/ed/voirproposition.pl?site=CDCVL&matricule_prop=37515__;!!IKRxdwAv5BmarQ!LnSPcvySuw444LMO-FoeGiNZuZVHZGffIssNdsO1btPsDUsGuFS5MLlUtrz8zAM$> with best regards, Tjarda Roberts CNRS Researcher, LPC2E, Orléans 2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2 ------------------------------
