The postdoctoral scholar is responsible for independent and collaborative
development, implementation, and analysis of scientific research in the
discipline of hydrogeophysics. The scholar will perform lab, field, and
modeling studies using geophysical methods to understand the influence of
climate change on solute transport in coastal soils and aquifers associated
with sea water intrusion and the discharge of contaminants from point and
non-point sources ( e.g., concentrated animal feeding operations, leach
fields, and waste water treatment systems). Responsibilities include
management of all aspects of field, lab, and modeling efforts for the
hydrogeophysical study of solute fate and transport in porous media. Duties
include: hypothesis development, literature review, collection, analysis,
and visualization of field and lab data, instrument maintenance, report
writing, and supervising of undergraduate research students and graduate
research students, overseeing data collection procedures, supervising
experimental procedures, review of data for quality control, data
management, supervision of data entry/data analysis, analysis of research
hypotheses using modeling, inverse methods, and multivariate statistical
methods, and the development of independent and collaborative presentations
and peer-reviewed publications. Scholars are expected to demonstrate
compliance with established guidelines and regulatory standards for research
including biosafety, responsible conduct of research and human subjects
training. Approximately 80% of the postdoctoral scholar's time will be
devoted to research. Approximately 20% of the postdoctoral scholar's time
will be devoted to managing the day-to-day activity of undergraduate and
graduate research students in the laboratory and field.
