Vos missions en quelques mots
BRIEF ROLE DESCRIPTION :
Ultra-fine particles (UFP) in the atmosphere have an impact on air quality and human health. In Lille, the concentration of particles with diameters between 20 and 30 nm has been rising steadily for the past 7 years. UFPs come from a complex combination of primary and secondary sources, both natural and anthropogenic (fossil fuel combustion, industrial emissions and road traffic), contributing to the diversity of their composition and characteristics.
In this thesis, we will use the particle number size distributions (PNSD, measured using a Mobility Particle Size Spectrometer - MPSS) and particle chemical composition (synergy between the Aerosol Chemical Speciation Monitor – ACSM – and AE33 Aethalometer instruments), measured continuously at the ATOLL (ATmospheric Observatory of LiLle) site since 2017. Intensive campaigns with the new VOCUS equipment acquired via the CPER ECRIN will provide information on their organic precursors. A factorization algorithm will be applied to the PNSDs to determine a limited number of PNSD groups characteristic of the site. Each group of PNSDs will then be associated with chemical and meteorological characteristics that will help refine the origin(s) of these UFPs.
The PhD student will be highly involved in the regional CPER ECRIN (https://ecrin.cper-hautsdefrance.fr/) and European ACTRIS (https://www.actris.eu/) communities. The results will also contribute to the newly-accepted Cross-Disciplinary Program “Aerosols at the heart of the Earth-Atmosphere system” (AREA) included in the Hub “Science for a Changing Planet” (http://www.isite-ulne.fr/index.php/en/science-for-a-changing-planet-hub/) from the University of Lille Excellence Initiative, in which both labs are strong contributors. Scientific research promotion is expected through national/international conferences and workshops as well as peer-reviewed articles.
Involvement in teaching may be possible through courses, students’ project supervision and/or practical work.

Descriptif du service
This position is based in :
1) the CERI EE, in the research axis Observations, Sources and Processes in the Atmosphere. OSPA’s research focus is on the physicochemistry of atmospheric trace species through laboratory and field experiments, aiming to achieve a better understanding of air pollutant characteristics, origins and fate. The CERI EE offers a multicultural working environment, with labs based in Douai, a mid-sized town close to Lille, a cosmopolitan metropolis with a thriving cultural scene and lively atmosphere.
2) the LOA, in the Aerosol-Radiation Interactions research group. The ARI research themes focus on a better understanding of particles (chemical, physical, optical and hygroscopic) properties and their distribution within the atmosphere in order to evaluate their role on Earth's energy balance. The LOA is part of one of the largest university in France (in terms of student number) and is located on a green and lively campus. The LOA hosts and maintains the ATOLL (ATmospheric Observatory in LiLle) site equipped with state-of-the-art aerosol instrumentation (https://actris-nf-labelling.out.ocp.fmi.fi/facility/42).
Ideally positioned at the heart of Europe, an hour away from Paris, 30 min from Brussels and an hour and a half from London, CERI EE and LOA are located on two main campuses dedicated to research and higher education in Douai and Lille metropolis, respectively.
