Background
For the Paris settlement on Local weather, well timed reporting of greenhouse gasoline emissions by nations for various sectors and gases is required. The anthropogenic CO2 Monitoring and Verification Assist (MVS) capability developed in Europe based mostly on the suggestions from the European Fee’s CO2 Monitoring Process Power addresses this want by creating an integration system able to inferring emissions from observations (house and in situ), prior data reminiscent of bottom-up emission estimates from inventories and modelling in addition to information assimilation capabilities.
Below the Copernicus Atmospheric Service (https://environment.copernicus.eu ) portfolio and the Horizon Europe CAMEO mission (https://cordis.europa.eu/mission/id/101082125/fr ) we’re in search of a motivated post-doctoral or younger information scientist to work on:
- Improvement and well timed provision of knowledge quantifying the each day emissions of CO2 from fossil gas burning and cement manufacturing at nationwide scale based mostly on near-real-time exercise information assembled from the Carbon Monitor mission (https://carbonmonitor.org ).
- Analysis of each day CO2 emissions in opposition to nationwide inventories and different related datasets
- Enchancment of methodologies used to derive each day CO2 emissions from exercise information, together with the usage of satellite tv for pc proxies and socio-economic indicators.
- Analysis of atmospheric inversions outcomes in opposition to regional and native estimates of greenhouse gasoline emissions for fossil gas CO2 emissions and CH4 anthropogenic emissions
This work can be carried out at LSCE, in collaboration with ECMWF, companions of the CAMEO mission and the Carbon Monitor worldwide crew led by Tsinghua College in China.
Necessities
- Programming abilities, ideally in Python / R
- Data of distant sensing information processing and evaluation
Choice Standards
- PhD diploma or Grasp diploma in a subject reminiscent of atmospheric modeling, data-science, distant sensing, sign processing, machine studying or statistics.
- Autonomy, capability to work in a crew and time administration
- Skilled in multidisciplinary team-based actions with the flexibility to successfully talk with colleagues and with workers from the companions of a mission.
