Job description
We search to rent a lecturer in Bodily Geography and Ecosystem Science with a deal with micrometeorological strategies for producing knowledge relating to greenhouse fuel trade between the Earth floor, vegetation, and ambiance. The division runs quite a lot of area stations for measuring carbon fluxes utilizing eddy covariance methods in primarily boreal and temperate environments but in addition in semi-arid ecosystems situated in Africa. Utility areas for these measurements vary from producing primary data inside micrometeorology and ecosystem operate, to forestry, agriculture, and environmental monitoring.
INES is partnered with ICOS Sweden and has workers that works at two analysis websites that embrace 4 ICOS Sweden stations (two Class 1 atmospheric stations and two Class 2 ecosystem stations). These ICOS Sweden stations are co-located with ACTRIS (Aerosol, Clouds and Hint Gases Analysis Infrastructure) stations and are additionally included in SITES Spectral (infrastructure for spectral measurements of ecosystem monitoring). The candidate is anticipated to develop their analysis in shut relation to those assets whereas concurrently linking up with exiting analysis areas throughout the division.
The candidate will conduct and lead analysis within the division, have interaction in instructing actions at each undergraduate and postgraduate ranges, and is anticipated to behave because the scientific director of ICOS Sweden. The scientific directorship is anticipated to account for 25-50% of the place. The duties affiliate with this place, in addition to the relative proportions of analysis and instructing, might change over time.
The scientific director for ICOS Sweden is liable for main the organisation’s operations, together with planning, main, and prioritising actions throughout the framework of its operational plan and price range with assist from the management group.

The candidate is anticipated to use for exterior funding so as to finance the prices for their very own analysis in addition to their analysis group’s salaries. A begin up bundle will embrace assets equal to the price of a PhD pupil to facilitate constructing a analysis group.
The candidate may even be anticipated to contribute to academic actions in any respect ranges together with the event after all modules, programs, in addition to supervision of Bachelor’s and Grasp’s college students. Micrometeorology, vegetation-atmosphere trade processes, as effectively understanding the position of vegetation when it comes to local weather and local weather change are key instructing areas. The “Bodily Geography and Ecosystem Science” Bachelor’s and Grasp’s programmes are most related within the context of this place, however the candidate can also contribute to different academic programmes within the division (e.g. inside GIS and Distant Sensing), relying on the extent of competence in these topics.
The duties of the place additionally embrace cooperation and outreach actions between the college and the remainder of the world, for instance by BECC, MERGE, and LU Land.
