Postdoctoral Scientist, Stanford: Scaling methane emissions in boreal and arctic environments


Stanford University, Stockholm University, and Ohio State University seek a full-time postdoctoral earth scientist in remote sensing, geospatial analyses or biogeosciences to improve spatial scaling of methane emissions in boreal and arctic environments. The successful candidate will have expertise in remote sensing and geospatial analysis-to refine mapping of land forms relevant to the methane cycle-and/or experience in field sampling of methane emissions and permafrost and peatland soils. Project investigators include Rob Jackson (jacksonlab.stanford.edu), Gustaf Hugelius (http://www.su.se/english/profiles/chuge-1.184251), and Kaiguang Zhao (http://senr.osu.edu/our-people/kaiguang-zhao).  This international collaboration is part of a larger effort to improve understanding of sources and sinks in the global methane cycle through the Global Carbon Project (globalcarbonproject.org). The postdoctoral scientist will also have opportunities to interact with other researchers examining wetland and tropical methane emissions on the same grant and to link with other international efforts, including the Permafrost Carbon Network and COUP (Constraining uncertainties in the permafrost-climate feedback). Send a CV, statement of interests, and three letters of recommendation to: rob.jackson at stanford.edu. Stanford is an equal opportunity employer; minority applicants are strongly encouraged to apply. Applications will be reviewed as they are received. Please apply by February 4th, 2017, for full consideration.


Best wishes, Gustaf Hugelius
