[Funded through the CENTA3 DLA and the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC); funding covers an annual stipend, tuition fees at home-fee level, and a Research Training Support Grant.] This PhD studentship investigates how rising atmospheric CO2 may alter forest emissions of volatile organic compounds and, in turn, the ability of those emissions to form secondary organic aerosol. The project is framed around a key climate question: whether a mature forest that emits different mixtures of pl...

Postdoctoral researcher in halide perovskites and nonequilibrium materials is sought for a 12-month, full-time position at the Laboratory of Physics and Study of Materials (LPEM), ESPCI Paris–CNRS, in Paris, France. The project, funded by MINOTAURE within the French national PEPR-TASE programme, examines how light, heat and the surrounding environment reshape halide perovskites, including why some changes are reversible while others produce lasting material transformations. The successful candid...

About this position

This postdoctoral position is based at the Laboratoire d'Optique Atmosphérique (LOA) of the University of Lille, within the “Nuages et Rayonnement” team, and is linked to CNRS-associated research activity on atmospheric optics. The project focuses on the optical properties of atmospheric microplastics, a recently identified and still poorly characterized component of atmospheric aerosols.

The successful candidate will work on the characterization of these particles through experimental measurements and numerical simulations, with particular emphasis on spectral optical behavior relevant to remote sensing. A major part of the research will use data from the SOLEIL synchrotron to determine the complex refractive indices of different polymers. The project also includes the analysis of laboratory measurements from atmospheric chamber experiments and may involve new experiments on microplastics in suspension.

In addition to microplastics, the postdoctoral researcher may extend the work to ice crystals, especially in the infrared, to study their spectral signatures and the possibilities of distinguishing them from microplastics in hyperspectral atmospheric observations. This connects directly with satellite observation contexts, including FORUM and IASI-NG, and with the broader goal of improving the interpretation of atmospheric radiation measurements and climate-model representations.

The position is embedded in a collaborative environment, with close interaction planned with the SOLEIL teams for spectroscopic data exploitation and potential collaborations with the CESAM atmospheric chamber team at Université Paris-Est Créteil, the Institut Lumière Matière in Lyon, and the PC2A laboratory at the University of Lille.
