Toronto, Canada University of Toronto Full time

**Date Posted**:05/17/2023
**Req ID**:31122
**Faculty/Division**: Faculty of Arts & Science
**Department**: Dept of Physics
**Campus**: St. George (Downtown Toronto)

**Description**:
**DESCRIPTION**:
We are hiring a Research Associate to work with us on a new and exciting 3-year NSERC Alliance Missions grant. The project is called the Toronto Atmospheric Monitoring of Emissions (TAME): Evaluating progress and co-benefits while avoiding pitfalls on the way to net-zero. The goals of this project are to quantify urban greenhouse gas and air pollution emissions and monitor their reductions over time, while identifying the policies that have made the most significant impacts. The TAME project will equip the Greater Toronto Area with atmospheric observatories to quantify emissions, validate and refine inventories, and provide timely information to governments to implement and verify the effects of emissions policies. This will be accomplished by measuring atmospheric concentrations of the greenhouse gases (CO2 and CH4) at five main “supersites” together with other tracers that serve as proxies for the sources of those emissions or emissions reductions. These tracers will include fluorinated compounds used in air source heat pumps that are themselves potent greenhouse gases, products of combustion and criteria air pollutants carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and urban vegetation sequestration information from greenness indices and solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence measurements.

**MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS**:
Experience - Demonstrated hands-on experience of at least 2 years of experience working in the field with atmospheric monitoring equipment (e.g., EM27/SUN, Picarro, LGR, LiCOR) and working with and interpreting large atmospheric datasets. Web design experience is desirable.

Skill - Strong communication and collaborative skills are required. Demonstrated quantitative and computational skills; proficiency with Python, R, or similar data analysis software is required; competency with FORTRAN or other lower-level language is desirable. A driver’s license is necessary for some maintenance visits.
