The role will be undertaken as an employee of University of Leeds based at Fairbairn House, Clarendon Road, adjacent to the main campus. We are looking for an Atmospheric Remote Sensing Scientist at the University of Leeds to provide research leadership for AMOF’s emerging Cloud and Boundary Layer Observatory and to ensure that new NCAS dual-frequency cloud-radar capability is translated into a nationally leading, scientifically ambitious observing system. The role will combine observatory design, radar-science development, community-facing capability building, data-product development and delivery of a clear programme of original research, positioning Leeds at the centre of next-generation UK cloud and boundary-layer observation. The principal purpose of the role will be to establish and grow an internationally visible research programme that leverages the Observatory capability to deliver high-quality publications, attract external research funding, develop new collaborations and partnerships, and strengthen the wider NCAS and Leeds research portfolio in atmospheric remote sensing. If you want to be part of a centre of excellence for radar and remote sensing then we want to hear from you!
