The University of Sheffield, United Kingdom
Job Reference Number: UOS005461
Job Title: Post-doctoral Research Fellow
Contract Type: Fixed term for 3 years
Department: Department of Geography
Salary: £28,401 - £ 31,020
Closing Date: 12th November 2012
Summary:
Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow to
participate in a UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC)-funded
project entitled "Permafrost catchments in transition: hydrological
controls on carbon cycling and greenhouse gas budgets". The principal
objective of this post is to quantify and understand the biotic/abiotic
controls on carbon fluxes in permafrost environments, with particular
emphasis on the interface between the water and carbon cycles, and on
the implications for global radiative-forcing. You will become part of a
world-class UK and international research team, but have specific
responsibility for aspects of the work-programme dealing with plant-soil
interactions, and with surface-atmosphere exchanges of carbon dioxide
and methane. Overall, the team will measure the capture of carbon from
the atmosphere, its distribution in plants and soils, and the
biological, physical and chemical controls of carbon transport and
delivery from soils to freshwaters, and ultimately to the atmosphere as
carbon dioxide and methane.
You should have a PhD in ecology or biogeochemistry, or another relevant
area of environmental /ecological science, and have experience of
designing, developing and publishing research. This is an opportunity
for an outstanding researcher to join a vibrant and successful unit in
one of the UK's leading research-intensive universities. The opportunity
offers significant potential for professional growth and exposure in
Europe and North America.
This post is fixed-term with a start date of 1 January 2013 and an end
date of 31 December 2015.
