The Center for Laser Sensing and Diagnostics (Yalin group) at Colorado State University is, on an ongoing basis, seeking highly skilled, motivated, and independent Research Scientist I or II to contribute laser diagnostic expertise to our group's research efforts. We are looking for candidates who can support one or more projects in broad areas of advanced propulsion and/or hydrogen emissions monitoring.
Research on the advanced propulsion side is oriented at developing and applying new laser diagnostics to electric propulsion (EP) systems with emphasis on detailed, spatially- and temporally- resolved, species-specific measurements. A new effort, to be funded by the USSF, seeks to examine operation of EP devices on molecular propellants. A key step will be to develop novel Doppler-based LIF diagnostics for measuring ion velocities (IVDFs) of relevant ionic species in these systems. For the molecular propellants it will also be important to measure rotationally- and vibrationally- resolved species populations.
Our effort on measuring atmospheric hydrogen emissions are in support of the burgeoning hydrogen economy and will be supported by ARPA-E H2Sense program. The approach, for sensitive and quantitative measurements, is to use the Photoacoustic Stimulated Raman Spectroscopy (PARS) method. Research tasks will include design, development and optimization of the full PARS system including a Raman cell pumping scheme, a photoacoustic cavity, and an optical multi-pass cell (around the PA cavity) to increase signal levels. The PARS sensor will be developed and tested for real-world outdoor usage, in partnership with NOAA and NREL, with an eye to developing a commercial product.
We seek research scientists who can contribute to one or both of the above projects. Research scientists will also be expected to produce high-quality research and present their work at conferences and via peer-reviewed publications.
Positions may become available throughout the year. Ranking and qualification within the levels are done on a case-by-case basis with factors that include the complexity of research and specialized skills. Annual terms and reappointment may depend on performance and/or continued availability of funding.

JOB TITLE:
Post Doctoral Research Scientist or Associate Research Scientist
JOB PURPOSE:
The University of Wyoming department of Atmospheric Science is seeking to fill two
postdoctoral/associate research science positions in one of the following fields: Aerosol cloud interactions, cloud radiative effect and cloud feedback, atmospheric chemistry,
extreme weather events, or planning observational deployments. The hired candidate
will join an existing team to work on the on the Perturbed parameter ensemble
Regression Optimization Center for Earth system model Evaluation and Development
(PROCEED; ******************************* project. PROCEED is a Department of
Energy (DOE) supported initiative at the University of Wyoming and University of Hawaii at
Manoa focused on reducing uncertainty in Earth System Model (ESM) predictions at the
seasonal to decadal scale.
Earth System Models need to be able to predict environmental change decades into the future at a global scale, but many of the processes that dominate prediction uncertainty operate at a scale of micrometers and seconds, like chemistry, aerosols, clouds, and precipitation. To tackle this problem, we have to develop parameterizations to represent these phenomena within global models. PROCEED leverages the University of Wyoming allocation on the NCAR-Wyoming supercomputer Derecho (************************************* to probe uncertainty from parameterized processes in the DOE Energy Exascale ESM (E3SM). Using state-of-the-art,
process-level constraint from the DOE Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) program, PROCEED will work with Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and the UW School of Computing to better understand the Earth system and improve seasonal-to-decadal predictability. Within this collaboration, University of Wyoming is focusing on developing novel perturbed process ensembles (PPEs) in E3SM while University of Hawaii at Manoa uses large eddy simulations to better understand how ARM observations can be used to confront, constrain, and understand global environmental predictability in E3SM.
University of Wyoming seeks to fill two positions. Positions will be at the postdoctoral level or associate research scientist level, depending on experience. Candidates should have a doctoral degree in atmospheric science or a closely-related field. Research scientists will be expected to conduct research at a higher level of independence and contribute significantly to the development of the project. PROCEED focuses on research in the following areas, with successful candidates having experience and publications relevant to one or more of the areas:
• Aerosol-cloud interactions
• Cloud radiative effect and cloud feedback
• Atmospheric chemistry (with a focus on oxidation)
• High-impact events such as, but not limited to, drought and rainfall
• Planning observational deployments including surface sites (i.e., ARM mobile facilities including ship observations) and aircraft
Successful candidates should have some experience with ESMs, analysis of large volumes of data, observations relevant to ARM, and high performance computing. Core components of duties for this position are leading (writing) peer-reviewed publications creating data sets for community use, and coordinating with university and national lab collaborators. This position will be part of the first of two 2-year renewals of PROCEED.
Candidates will join a lively research effort of 3 research scientists and 2 graduate students and a collegial department of 7 faculty, ~25 graduate students, 6 postdoctoral scholars, 7 research scientists, and 7 engineers/technicians.

JOB TITLE:
Post Doctoral Research Scientist or Associate Research Scientist
JOB PURPOSE:
The University of Wyoming department of Atmospheric Science is seeking to fill two postdoctoral/associate research science positions in one of the following fields: Aerosol cloud interactions, cloud radiative effect and cloud feedback, atmospheric chemistry,extreme weather events, or planning observational deployments. The hired candidate will join an existing team to work on the on the Perturbed parameter ensemble Regression Optimization Center for Earth system model Evaluation and Development PROCEED; ****************************** project. PROCEED is a Department of Energy (DOE) supported initiative at the University of Wyoming and University of Hawaii at Manoa focused on reducing uncertainty in Earth System Model (ESM) predictions at the seasonal to decadal scale. Earth System Models need to be able to predict environmental change decades into the future at a global scale, but many of the processes that dominate prediction uncertainty operate at a scale of micrometers and seconds, like chemistry, aerosols, clouds, and precipitation. To tackle this problem, we have to develop parameterizations to represent these phenomena within global models. PROCEED leverages the University of Wyoming allocation on the NCAR-Wyoming supercomputer Derecho (************************************* to probe uncertainty from parameterized processes in the DOE Energy Exascale ESM (E3SM). Using state-of-the-art, process-level constraint from the DOE Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) program, PROCEED will work with Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and the UW School of Computing to better understand the Earth system and improve seasonal-to-decadal predictability. Within this collaboration, University of Wyoming is focusing on developing novel perturbed process ensembles (PPEs) in E3SM while University of Hawaii at Manoa uses large eddy simulations to better understand how ARM observations can be used to confront, constrain, and understand global environmental predictability in E3SM.
University of Wyoming seeks to fill two positions. Positions will be at the postdoctoral level or associate research scientist level, depending on experience. Candidates should have a doctoral degree in atmospheric science or a closely-related field. Research scientists will be expected to conduct research at a higher level of independence and contribute significantly to the development of the project. PROCEED focuses on research in the following areas, with successful candidates having experience and publications relevant to one or more of the areas:
• Aerosol-cloud interactions
• Cloud radiative effect and cloud feedback
• Atmospheric chemistry (with a focus on oxidation)
• High-impact events such as, but not limited to, drought and rainfall
• Planning observational deployments including surface sites (i.e., ARM mobile facilities including ship observations) and aircraft
Successful candidates should have some experience with ESMs, analysis of large volumes of data, observations relevant to ARM, and high performance computing. Core components of duties for this position are leading (writing) peer-reviewed publications creating data sets for community use, and coordinating with university and national lab collaborators. This position will be part of the first of two 2-year renewals of PROCEED.
Candidates will join a lively research effort of 3 research scientists and 2 graduate students and a collegial department of 7 faculty, ~25 graduate students, 6 postdoctoral scholars, 7 research scientists, and 7 engineers/technicians.
