About this position
This postdoctoral project investigates whether boreal streams emit aerosols to the atmosphere and, if so, what physical and environmental processes control those emissions. The work sits at the interface of aquatic and atmospheric sciences, building on the idea that bubble bursting and related air–water exchange processes may operate very differently in streams than in oceans.
The successful researcher will help develop a flux chamber designed to capture aerosols emitted from stream surfaces and to quantify aerosol fluxes using online particle counters and air filtration for laboratory analysis of ice-nucleating particles. The chamber will be used in controlled experiments and in field studies in natural boreal streams, alongside measurements of water chemistry, bubble properties, and other physicochemical characteristics.
The position is based in the Department of Forest Ecology and Management at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Umeå. The department is focused on understanding forest ecosystems and their management, and the project offers a collaborative environment with opportunities for experimental work, scientific publication, and research communication.
The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to experimental design, data collection and analysis, manuscript preparation, and broader dissemination of the findings. The position is supervised by Associate Professor Marcus Klaus.

What's required
Applicants must hold a PhD in atmospheric sciences, aquatic sciences, physics, environmental engineering, or a related discipline. The applicant must have demonstrated experience in measurements of aerosols, suspended particles and/or air-water mass exchange (particles or gases) and experience conducting laboratory and/or fieldwork in aquatic and/or atmospheric systems. A track record of scientific writing and publishing in peer-reviewed journals is required, as are excellent written and spoken English skills. Experience with air filtration, aerosol sampling, particle counting, droplet freezing assays, bubble and/or turbulence characterization, programming and data analysis using R or MATLAB, and engineering or instrument development is considered an advantage. The postdoctoral appointment is intended for junior researchers, and candidates are primarily sought whose doctoral degree is three years old at most.
