Crynodeb
Grade UE07: £40,497- £48,149 per annum
College of Science & Engineering, School of GeoSciences
Fixed Term: 9 months, until 31 March 2026
Full Time: 35 hours per week
The Opportunity:
Given the unprecedented growth rates of atmospheric CO2 in 2023 and 2024, there is no better time to study the global carbon cycle and how it might change with a warming climate. MicroCarb, a French-UK satellite mission launching in summer 2025, will collect atmospheric CO2 data that will allow us to precisely monitor changes in the global distribution of CO₂ sources and sinks. The UK science lead for MicroCarb is at the University of Edinburgh so this opportunity is a valuable opportunity to gain a deep understanding of the instrument and its capabilities before data delivery begins. This positions you to make significant scientific contributions once the data becomes available.
This post is full-time (35 hours per week) and fixed term until 31 March 2026.
The salary for this post is £40,497 to £48,149 per annum.
Your skills and attributes for success:
A PhD (or a PhD submitted) in a relevant quantitative scientific discipline.
Experience in developing and running an atmospheric transport model.
Experience in interpreting data.
Experience with FORTRAN and Python computer languages.
Proven ability to work independently and efficiently.
