Postdoctoral Fellow, Lidar Studies Related to the Canadian HAWC Satellite Project
Primary Purpose: Canada is developing three satellite instruments, TICFIRE (Thin Ice Cloud and Far InfraRed Emissions), ALI (Aerosol Limb Imager) and SHOW (Spatial Heterodyne Observations of Water), jointly known as the HAWC (High-altitude, Aerosols, Water Vapour and Clouds) mission, for space observations of climate parameters. The successful candidate will join the HAWC Science Development Team.
Nature of Work: An overview of the HAWC project including details of the instrumentation has recently been published:
Langille, J., and Coauthors, 2025: The High-altitude Aerosols, Water vapour and Clouds mission: concept, scientific objectives and data products. Bull. Amer. Meteor. Soc., , , in press.
The HAWC Science Development Team (SDT) is jointly funded by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada and the Canadian Space Agency. As part of this team, the successful candidate will investigate synergies between lidar and ALI measurements, for instance to extend ALI’s measurement capabilities or to develop new data projects. As part of this, they will support MPLCAN (, including updates to the automated data processing system as required for continued near real-time data processing. The successful candidate will work with Professors R. Sica (Western University, ) and A. Bourassa (University of Saskatchewan, ).
