Job description

POSTDOCTORAL ASSOCIATE,Center for Sustainability Science & Strategy, to join an international team of scientists working as part of the global AGAGE network and a large community of atmospheric scientists at MIT. The general goals of AGAGE are to measure the abundances of non-CO2greenhouse and ozone-depleting gases in the atmosphere and to determine emissions, transport rates and mechanisms, loss rates and mechanisms, and ozone depletion and radiative forcing by these gases. The project will focus on building intelligent systems to analyse and interpret AGAGE observational data of non-CO2greenhouse and ozone-depleting gases (e.g., N2O, CFCs, HFCs), and to extract diagnostic insights from instrument performance indicators, using machine learning methods.
