The appointment will initially be for one year, but is renewable for one additional year. The position requires a Ph.D. in Chemistry, Oceanography, Geochemistry or a related field obtained within the last three years. The successful applicant should have expertise in isotopic methodologies preferably utilizing compound specific isotopic analysis of carbon at natural abundance. There are also opportunities to participate in a current project involving the biogeochemistry of petroleum in sediments. The appointment is time-limited with an end date of July 2018. </span></b></p><p style="margin:0px"><b><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman','serif'"> </span></b></p><p style="margin:0px"><b><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman','serif'">The successful candidate will work primarily on a currently funded NSF grant investigating the relative proportions of biofuel and biogenically derived ethanol in rainwater by compound specific stable carbon isotope analysis. The research is important and timely given the United States is at a pivotal crossroads with respect to ethanol usage as a fuel and because virtually nothing is known regarding its atmospheric aqueous phase reactivity under environmentally relevant conditions. The postdoc will also have the opportunity to teach undergraduate classes, mentor undergraduate and graduate students, and work on additional projects in MACRL.</span></b></p><p style="margin:0px"><b><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman','serif'"> </span></b></p><p style="margin:0px"><b><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman','serif'">All necessary analytical instrumentation is available and located within the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry or at the Center for Marine Science at UNCW.
