Postdoc opportunity at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering. This postdoctoral project focuses on observations of aircraft contrails and on using those observations to evaluate and improve contrail prediction models . Contrails are described as a major contributor to aviation’s climate impact, and the research goal is to support contrail avoidance strategies by reducing uncertainty in model predictions of where contrails persist and how much impact th...

About this position

This postdoctoral project at SRON focuses on atmospheric emissions from biomass burning, using satellite observations together with atmospheric transport and inverse modeling. The successful candidate will work on improving understanding of fire emissions and their uncertainties by combining observations from TROPOMI on Sentinel-5P with modeling tools and complementary datasets.

The research sits within the Earth Science Group (ESG), a team of around 40 scientists, postdoctoral researchers, and PhD students working on satellite observation interpretation, atmospheric modeling, data science, and future Earth observation missions. You will join a research team that specializes in detecting and quantifying atmospheric emissions from natural, industrial, and urban sources using satellite observations, atmospheric transport modeling, and machine learning.

The project will use atmospheric carbon monoxide observations from TROPOMI, MOPITT, and upcoming Sentinel-5 missions, together with Bayesian inversion methods and regional transport simulations. You will help develop and apply an integrated framework to optimize fire emissions, investigate long-term trends, analyze major wildfire events, and study recurring biomass burning across different regions of the world.

The work also includes evaluating fire emission inventories, combining carbon monoxide data with fire radiative power and burned area products, and exploring environmental and human drivers of biomass burning. The position offers the chance to work at the intersection of atmospheric science, satellite remote sensing, and biomass burning processes within an internationally connected research environment.

Funding details

Fixed-term full-time postdoc for 2 years with possibility of a 2-year extension; salary scale 10 up to €5,758 gross per month full-time, plus end-of-year bonus, holiday allowance, vacation leave, pension, development options, parental leave, training, flexible and hybrid working.

What's required

A PhD in atmospheric sciences, physics, environmental sciences or a related discipline is required. The ideal candidate has experience in atmospheric transport modeling (e.g. GEOS-Chem, TM5 or related), satellite remote sensing and inverse modeling, preferably in the context of biomass burning. Strong programming and data analysis skills are essential, along with experience analyzing satellite observations of atmospheric trace gases. Knowledge of biomass burning processes and fire emission inventories is an asset. Highly developed written and oral English proficiency is essential, and the candidate should be able to work both independently and in a team.
