Project Title:  National Carbonaceous Aerosol Programme (NCAP) working Group III

Principal Investigator:  Dr. Abhijit Chatterjee

Funding Agency:  MoEFCC

Job Description:  

The project will involve in finding sources of carbonaceous aerosols with seasonal and spatial resolution. Receptor modelling approaches using aerosol chemical species concentrations and meteorological parameters as inputs will be used toward this end. This proposal will involve operation of a regionally representative sampling site, Darjeeling (270 01’N, 880 15E, 2200 m asl), a high altitude station at eastern Himalaya using specified criteria. The specific objectives of the project are the identification of a regionally representative location for particle sampling for
black carbon source apportionment, analysis of seasonal variations in source contributions to ultrafine aerosols as related to meteorology (using trajectory analysis and trajectory based receptor models) and emissions (from emissions inventory), studies on the role of carbonaceous aerosols as cloud condensation nuclei and their effect and interaction with precipitation; studies on the effect on fine mode effect and interaction with precipitation; studies on the effect of fine mode aerosols and its carbonaceous components on atmospheric radiative forcing and heating
rate over high altitude Himalayan station, Darjeeling.

Application Instructions :

Interested and eligible candidates may apply on plain paper quoting “Advertisement No.” and “Application for the post of JRF/PA for NCAP” on the envelop as well as application with complete Bio-data giving e-mail ID / Phone No. and details of qualification i.e. examination passed, year, division, percentage of marks from Secondary onwards with Attested copies of testimonials addressed to the Sr. Prof. & In-Charge, Registrar’s Office, Bose Institute, P–
