Job description
The Nationwide Snow and Ice Knowledge Heart (NSIDC), inside the Cooperative Institute for Analysis in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) welcomes functions for a Permafrost Mercury Modeling Publish-Doctoral Affiliate. The Publish-Doctoral Affiliate (Postdoc) will develop cutting-edge fashions of mercury dynamics within the terrestrial biosphere in permafrost areas leveraging current fashions of carbon biogeochemistry. Northern hemisphere permafrost represents the most important pool of mercury on the planet, certain to frozen natural matter. The Postdoc will construct a process-based, terrestrial mercury mannequin wanted to grasp the impacts of permafrost thaw on the Arctic and world mercury cycles. The Postdoc will combine the mercury mannequin right into a full-physics, land floor parameterization with coupled carbon, water, and power cycles representing the terrestrial biosphere. Solely three such fashions exist as we speak, providing a singular alternative to develop the frontiers of terrestrial biogeochemical modeling.
This place is a three-year appointment. The Postdoc will report back to Kevin Schaefer, PI for the venture. The profitable applicant will have interaction the broader scientific neighborhood with our outcomes by presenting outcomes at conferences and conferences. The Postdoc will take part in working teams, conferences, and related conferences specializing in bettering the worldwide mercury cycle. The Postdoc will take part in and assist write new analysis proposals to develop their analysis past the three-year time period of this place.
The College of Colorado Boulder is dedicated to constructing a culturally numerous neighborhood of college, workers, and college students devoted to contributing to an inclusive campus setting. We’re an Equal Alternative employer, together with veterans and people with disabilities.
