[William Riley]

POSTDOCTORAL SCHOLAR - TERRESTRIAL BIOGEOCHEMICAL MODELING –
U.C. Berkeley and Lawrence Berkeley National Lab
<https://www.facebook.com/hawkes.lab>

This postdoctoral researcher position is for a scientist with expertise in
analyzing agricultural systems, terrestrial biogeochemical processes, plant
dynamics, and interactions with climate. The successful candidate will
focus on California agriculture and challenges associated with climate
change, and will be part of a large, multi-institution, and
multi-disciplinary project.

The position calls for expertise in numerical methods for land-surface
modeling; uncertainty quantification; parameter estimation; and microbial,
abiotic, and plant processes and interactions. The position offers an
excellent environment for working with a highly skilled interdisciplinary
team and will require strong motivation and excellent oral and written
communication skills. The postdoctoral researcher will also have
opportunities to collaborate with researchers across our multi-institution
project.

The successful candidate may focus on several groups of
agriculture-relevant processes, including coupled hydrological and
biogeochemical dynamics, nutrient and carbon interactions, plant and
microbe interactions, and management. We are also interested in developing
methods to evaluate, against observations, process-level and emergent model
responses, and in developing model benchmarking approaches.

Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience and generous
benefits are included (http://vspa.berkeley.edu/postdocs
