January 2012 - Full Professor
|
 |
The Faculty 1: Physics and Electrical Engineering of the University of Bremen seeks candidates for appointment as Full Professor Group W3 – tenured Civil Servant In the research area: Satellite supported Earth System Modelling, Advertisement No. P 584/11
|
|
|
Candidates with excellent academic and scientific qualifications are invited to apply for the vacant professorship in Satellite supported Earth System modelling which will focus on studying the interactions between the earth’s surface (Land, Ocean and Cryosphere) and its atmosphere. We expect candidates to have a research background in the fields of environmental physics and climate change. Possible foci are the determination of sources and sinks of atmospheric trace substances from satellite data, e.g. the study of the surface fluxes and exchange between the land, ocean and cryosphere and the lower atmosphere. This new professor will be a member of the Cluster of Excellence „The Ocean in the Earth System (MARUM)“, located at the Institute of Environmental Physics (IUP) in the faculty of Physics and Electrical Engineering of the University of Bremen. Full scientific and academic participation within the DFG (German Research Council) supported Research Centre/Cluster of Excellence, „The Ocean in the Earth System (MARUM)“ and the Institute of Environmental Physics (IUP) is a prerequisite.

Retrieval of vertical profiles from ground-based MAX-DOAS observations
|
|
|
The Institute of Environmental Physics at the University of Bremen has been operating ground-based instruments for remote sensing measurements of atmospheric trace gases at several stations since 1995. The method used is based on the Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS) of scattered sunlight and allows the detection of a number of tropospheric trace gases and also the retrieval of their vertical distribution at low resolution.

Satellite Remote Sensing of Tropospheric Constituents and Integration with Model Results
|
|
|
The Institute of Environmental Physics at the University of Bremen has been working on remote sensing of atmospheric composition from satellite observations since 1995. The method used here is based on the Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy (DOAS) of scattered sunlight and allows the determination of global maps of tropospheric trace gases such as NO2, SO2, or HCHO.
|
|
|
In the framework of the EU project MACC-II, IUP Bremen will validate results from several atmospheric models with independent satellite observations. In addition, model data will be incorporated as a priori information into the data analysis in order to improve retrievals on data from instruments such as SCIAMACHY and GOME-2, and to facilitate synergistic interpretation of results. This work builds on existing data, algorithms and results, and will be executed in close collaboration with other members of the working group.

Analysis of SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) ocean images.
|
|
|
The project will be performed in cooperation with the Center for Marine Environmental Sciences (MARUM) of the University of Bremen and the Florida State University. The task is an analysis of natural hydrocarbon seepage formations on the sea-floor, based on satellite SAR images. Seepages of natural methane and oil are observed in many oceans, here the focus is on the Black Sea. The oil spills are visible at the sea surface and can be detected and described using regularly taken SAR images
