[ES_JOBS_NET] PhD Position Biogeochemistry focus (Coastal and Marine System Science Program) Texas A&M University – Corpus Christi

[Felix, Joseph]

PhD Position Biogeochemistry focus (Coastal and Marine System Science Program)

Texas A&M University – Corpus Christi

A PhD opportunity is available with the Felix Research Group in the Department of Physical and Environmental Sciences at Texas A&M University – Corpus Christi starting in the fall of 2024 (or as early as summer 2024). The group’s research focuses on using stable isotope techniques to investigate the sources, transport, and fate of reactive nitrogen and volatile organic compounds in the environment. The group’s research across various earth systems provides a unique research experience that balances fieldwork with sample processing, sample analysis and development of novel stable isotope analysis techniques.

The student’s research will focus on natural air-sea and land-air reactive nitrogen exchange and its impacts on coastal air and water quality. The student’s work will incorporate aspects of several ongoing projects funded by NASA and the state of Texas to better understand air and water quality in semi-arid regions. PhD applicants should have an MS by spring/summer 2023 and provide evidence of a strong research record. Desired qualifications include experience with atmospheric chemistry models, federal equivalent method air quality instrumentation and stable isotope techniques. The position will start out with a research assistantship appointment with opportunity for renewal and/or teaching assistantships. The PhD student will matriculate through the Coastal and Marine System Science graduate program (http://gradschool.tamucc.edu/degrees/science/coastal_marine_sys_science.html).

Interested candidates should contact Dr. J. David Felix (joseph.felix at tamucc.edu) and provide a short statement of interest, a CV, and a first author publication or other scientific writing sample.
