We know some organic nitrogen compounds are critical for plant nutrition and soil fertility, but not the processes that control their production and consumption. This is particularly true in grasslands, where grazing animals move large proportions of nitrogen to create spatially complex landscapes with disconnected nitrogen supply and demand. This work will use New Zealand?s natural soil development chronosequences to investigate how urine deposition from grazing animals affects the production, bioavailability, and loss of organic nitrogen from ecosystems. The PhD position will involve field work in potentially remote locations, as well as glass house and laboratory experiments. Candidates will be based at Lincoln University near Christchurch, New Zealand, and work under the direct supervision of Prof Tim Clough (Lincoln University), along with Dr Naomi Wells (Lincoln University) and Prof Charles Warren (University of Sydney). Applicants must have an Honours or Masters degree in a related field such as biogeochemistry, soil science, environmental chemistry, biochemistry, or closely related science, and demonstrate significant English writing experience (e.g., degree undertaken in English). The project will involve periods of intensive field measurements, laboratory work, and data processing. Experience with organic chemistry techniques (e.g., GC-MS) and the nitrogen cycle will be viewed favourably. Scholarships will provide a generous tax-free annual stipend of $33,000 for three years, and tuition fees are waived. Interested applicants should send a CV and short (< 1 page) statement that highlights their research background (with respect to the criteria above) and motivation for applying for the position to Dr Naomi Wells (naomi.wells at lincoln.ac.nz).

The position is part of the recent National Science Foundation Learning the Earth with Artificial intelligence and Physics (LEAP) Science and Technology Center (STC), https://leap.columbia.edu/, a large multi-institutional center effort meant to improve climate projections using novel artificial intelligence for better climate adaptation. This project aims to revisit assumptions at the very core of calculations of radiative transfer calculations. The two-stream approximation used for computing the fate of sunlight, for example, makes assumptions about the angular distribution of light in the sky and how this co-varies with the light scattered from individual particles. Assumptions made almost half a century ago remain in wide use and are one cause of persistent radiation errors. This project will focus on using machine learning to revisit and revise assumptions like these, aspirationally using techniques such as equation discovery to ensure interpretability and distill the results for wide-spread use. The researcher is expected to present findings at national or international scientific conferences and to prepare publications for submission to scientific journals. The postdoctoral research scientist will collaborate with a team of scientists including Prof. Robert Pincus (Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Columbia University), Prof. Carl Vondrick (Computer Science, Columbia University) and Prof. Laure Zanna (Courant Institute, New York University). The Postdoctoral Research Scientist will join both the vibrant research community at Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory and LEAP?s burgeoning transdisciplinary team at the interface between machine learning/data science and climate sciences, including research scientists, faculty members, PhD students, undergraduate and Bridge-to-PhD researchers. * * _*Qualifications:*_ Candidates should have completed or be nearing completion of a Ph.D. in in Atmospheric, Climate, or Earth System Science, Chemistry, Applied Mathematics, Engineering, or related fields.

Yet, few tenable large-scale CO2 removal applications exist. It is now time for us to radically re-imagine the way we live on this planet. Enhanced rock weathering (ERW) of primary silicate minerals (e.g., olivine) has been proposed as a viable strategy for global-scale carbon capture, with a notable net 0.5-5 Gt CO? yr-1 potential proposed by recent modelling work. Additional potential economic and environmental benefits of ERW on pasture could include: (1) offsetting the need to add lime to pastures; (2) offsetting marine and terrestrial acidification; (3) reduced nitrous oxide (N?O) flux; (4) release of essential nutrients (e.g., Ca, Mg, K, Si, Fe, Zn); (5) enhanced ecosystem carbon storage;and (6) increased crop yield. Despite the massive potential, there are currently no natural field data to corroborate the rates of carbon dioxide capture deemed possible in model space. As part of this project, the PhD student will perform ERW trials on agricultural land (e.g., permanent pasture), using both dunite and basalt. This work will be tackled with a toolbox consisting of geochemical (elemental and mineralogical) analysis, reaction transport models and machine learning techniques in collaboration with a well-rounded supervisory team. This project constitutes only a portion of the PhD thesis, there is room for the candidate to lead the way in shaping the remainder of it. Prior experience in any of the following areas: geochemistry, carbon cycling, geospatial analysis, reaction transport modelling, machine learning is highly valued. The PhD candidate will be based at the Tauranga campus, as part of the Earth-Life InteractionsResearch Group (habitablearth.com). This 3-year scholarship covers stipend and fees. *As part of your application package, kindly include: * 1. CV (including information for 2-3 referees) 2. Cover Letter (this can include: a description of why you want to undertake a PhD; how your previous experiences have prepared you for the research project that you are applying for; what your passions are within or outside of academia) Review of applications will commence on 30th June 2021 and continue until the position is filled.

We have an exciting new applied science position with The Nature Conservancy (TNC) in Virginia. The coastal bays of Virginia host the largest seagrass restoration in the world, and our team (with our partners) has established the world's first blue carbon seagrass project. We are currently hiring a Blue Carbon Specialist focused on co-benefits to seagrass restoration. The position description is below and attached to this email. A LITTLE ABOUT US Founded in 1951, the Nature Conservancy is a global conservation organization dedicated to conserving the lands and waters on which all life depends. Guided by science, we create innovative, on-the-ground solutions to our world's toughest challenges so that nature and people can thrive together. Our global priorities are to tackle climate change and protect biodiversity at an unprecedented scale. One of our core values is our commitment to diversity. Therefore, we strive for a globally diverse and culturally competent workforce. Working in 72 countries, including all 50 United States, we use a collaborative approach that engages local communities, governments, the private sector, and other partners. To learn more, visit www.nature.org or follow @nature_press on Twitter. YOUR POSITION WITH TNC TNC's Volgenau Virginia Coast Reserve is a 50-year old program launched to protect the globally significant barrier island, coastal bays, and mainland portion of Virginia's Eastern Shore. With ownership of all or parts of 14 barrier islands and thousands of acres of mainland property, TNC's programs focus on migratory bird conservation, marine habitat restoration, land protection, coastal resilience, research partnerships, and community engagement. In collaboration with academic, state, and federal partners, we have been successfully restoring eelgrass to Virginia's coastal bays for the past 20 years, and the project's success - the largest seagrass restoration on the planet - was instrumental in the development of a methodology to estimate the net greenhouse gas emission reductions and removals resulting from the restoration of seagrasses. Using the approved methodology, TNC and partners have developed and are in the process of having verified the first registered blue carbon seagrass project in the world. . While we have a relatively robust understanding of the greenhouse gas emission reductions associated with the restoration, the scale of the project provides numerous co-benefits to the Virginia Coastal Bays, such as increased fish biomass and water clarity, which we would like to further explore. The Blue Carbon Specialist will work to expand the understanding and evidence of co-benefits of eelgrass restoration through research, analysis, collaboration, and publication of a scientific paper. The Blue Carbon Specialist will conduct data analysis and provide technical support in statistical analysis, modelling, environmental accounting, and GIS or other relational database technologies. The Blue Carbon Specialist provides technical and scientific support for conservation and carbon initiatives in Virginia to help fill critical capacity and knowledge gaps and contribute to larger-scale expansion of Natural Climate Solutions (NCS). NCS provide climate change mitigation via conservation, restoration, and sustainable management of forests, wetlands, grasslands, and agricultural lands. As part of a larger learning network at TNC, the NCS Prototyping Network, the Specialist will connect and regularly engage with the NCS Prototyping Team and similar projects in multiple global geographies to share information and support peer-to-peer learning. The Blue Carbon Specialist position will be based at the VCR in rural Nassawadox, on Virginia's Eastern Shore and be part of a dynamic, professional team.
