Apologies for cross-posting SCHOOL OF CHEMISTRY UNIVERSITY OF LEEDS RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS IN ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY Radical measurements in the atmospheric boundary layer Post 1 Field studies of peroxy radicals and the chemical lifetime of the hydroxyl radical using Laser Induced Fluorescence Spectroscopy, and the development of a new chemiluminescence instrument for the field detection of the hydroxyl radical. Post 2 Field studies of reactive radical species – particularly the nitrate radical and halogen oxides – in the marine boundary layer (Brittany and Cape Verde) and tropical rainforest (Borneo), using the technique of Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy. Applicants must have, or expect to obtain shortly, an experimental PhD in Chemistry, Physics, Atmospheric Science or a related discipline.
