Postdoctoral researcher

We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher with proven experience in the Eddy Covariance technique willing to apply for a competitive fellowship in order to study CO2 fluxes in the intertidal communities of saltmarshes using eddy covariance.

The postdoc will play an active role in both the field component of this project and the
data synthesis effort. Potential activities include operation and interpretation of eddy
covariance flux (methane, carbon dioxide) measurements, supervising personnel and
interfacing with other team members making measurements of isotopes, soils, vegetation,
and associated environmental measurements. The postdoc will be expected to organize,
analyze, and maintain large data sets generated from a number of sensors and gas
exchange measurement systems, and participate in data analysis and publications.

Candidates with a background in climate science, biogeochemistry, ecosystem ecology,
plant or soil science are encouraged to apply. Experience with gas exchange, eddy
covariance equipment, Campbell data loggers, R programming, data and metadata
processing would be essential. The postdoc will generally spend some large portion of
time during the field season in Alaska working with the field project, and winters spent in
Flagstaff, AZ on networking and data synthesis.

A Post-doctoral Scholarship is available at the Department of Forest Ecology and Management, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), Umeå, Sweden, for exploring rewetting effects on the greenhouse gas balance of historically drained peatland forests in boreal Sweden.

At present, the question on how to manage these historically drained boreal landscapes in a climate-smart way is a critical issue within Fennoscandia. This project is part of larger recently funded multi-disciplinary research framework that aims at addressing this question at the recently established Bullmark Experimental Rewetting infrastructure.

The project will be based on conducting Eddy Covariance and chamber flux measurements of CO2 and CH4 exchanges, combined with estimates of aquatic carbon export and a suit of supporting soil and vegetation measurements.
