The Air and Climate Unit of JRC-Ispra performs analyses of global and European emissions of atmospheric greenhouse gases, based on atmospheric observations and inverse modeling. For this purpose, it continuously develops and operates a four-dimensional variational (4DVAR) inverse modeling system, based on the 3D atmospheric zoom transport model TM5.
The unit is now looking for 2 researchers to contribute to the further development of the TM5-4DVAR inverse modeling system and to perform studies of global and regional CH4 and N2O emissions using in-situ and satellite observations.
