PhD Position in Atmospheric Chemistry: Investigating Oxidized Nitrogen in the Troposphere ETH Zurich in Switzerland

Open PhD position at École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in the Extreme Environments Research Laboratory with Julia Schmale . The project focuses on Antarctic vertical aerosol and cloud measurements within the international initiative Antarctica InSync . The research will investigate aerosol-cloud interactions over coastal Antarctica and the Southern Ocean sea ice using instruments deployed on a tethered balloon/helikite and at ground level. Research activities include vertically res...

PhD opportunity at Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH in Jülich, Germany for a project on drone-based trace gas observations and modelling-based emission verification . The position is hosted at the Institute for Climate and Energy Systems , specifically the Stratosphere (ICE-4) and Troposphere (ICE-3) groups. The research combines atmospheric chemistry , environmental science , physics , drone measurements , GC-MS , and chemistry transport modelling (EURAD-IM) to quantify greenhouse gases and ozone-...

Assistant Professor Makoto Kelp at the University of Utah is recruiting 1-2 PhD students for a Fall 2027 start date. The group works on machine learning for policy-relevant problems in air quality, climate, and weather , with particular interest in multimodal ML for wildfire smoke and the use of AI foundation models to improve projections of ozone, aerosol, and dust . Related themes include wildfire smoke modeling and mitigation , deep learning in the atmospheric chemistry-climate system , and d...
