A full-time postdoctoral position has recently been opened at the
Max-Planck-Institute for Biogeochemistry in Jena, Germany. The
announced position shall be filled as soon as possible, and incoming
applications will be reviewed immediately. The position will remain
open until filled, and new applications will be considered
accordingly. Final application deadline is April 15, 2015.<br>
<br>
The main focus of the work will be on the modeling of methane
emissions from highly structured Arctic ecosystems at local to
regional scales, using the terrestrial ecosystem model JSBACH. A
particular focus will be placed on testing the existing
representation of subgrid scale variability in hydrological
conditions, refining it for the landscape scale, and evaluating its
impact on the simulation of net methane emissions. Model performance
will be tested against reference datasets at plot (ecosystem chamber
fluxes), landscape (eddy-covariance fluxes) and regional scales
(atmospheric inverse modeling), with the final product anticipated
as a modeling tool to bridge these scales. <br>
