Thanks a lot in advance for your support in passing this on to suitable candidates! Best, Julia ABOUT US: Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit?t M?nchen is a leading research university in Europe. Since its founding in 1472 it has been committed to the highest international standards of excellence in research and teaching. The Chair for Physical Geography and Land Use Systems (Prof. Julia Pongratz) at LMU?s Department of Geography investigates the interactions between ecosystems and climate, and how these are altered by the anthropogenic use of land. Our group develops and applies the latest generation of land-use emission, vegetation and Earth system models and integrates them with observational data. Key research questions are the fate of ecosystems under the pressures of land-use and climate change, Earth system feedbacks via energy, water and biogeochemical cycles, and the role of vegetation and soils for greenhouse gas emissions reduction and CO2 removals in support of the Paris Agreement. The team is strongly involved in large national and international collaborations such as the Global Carbon Project, CMIP, IPCC, CDRterra, Horizon Europe projects and the national Earth System Modeling Strategy (natESM) [1]. [1] https://www.globalcarbonproject.org/ - https://www.wcrp-climate.org/wgcm-cmip - https://www.ipcc.ch/assessment-report/ar6/ - https://cdrterra.de/en - https://www.nat-esm.de/ We have several positions available: Scientific researcher (m/f/x) for ecosystem-climate interactions YOUR TASKS AND RESPONSIBILITIES: The scientific researcher is expected to conduct innovative research. Possible research topics include own model simulations and integration with Earth observations to understand the ecosystem response to future land-use change and assess feedbacks with the changing climate; further developments in our land-use emission model BLUE towards a terrestrial carbon cycle model; and contribution to an interdisciplinary assessment of carbon dioxide removal methods. It is not necessary (or expected) that the applicant works on all these topics. Instead, it is intended that one of them should become a main focus area for the applicant; priorities will depend on the interests of the applicant, the development of the research field and success in related research proposals by the working group. In all cases, tasks will be to ? advance the field of ecosystem-climate interactions and ecosystem modeling ? contribute to a better understanding of ecosystem-climate interactions and/or provide research results that are relevant for decision-making in support of sustainable land use and climate neutrality ? collaborate with other members of our group and other research institutions, with the option to co-supervise Bachelor, Master and Ph.D. students ? take a leading role in the development of scientific publications ? contribute to scientific outreach activities YOUR QUALIFICATIONS: ? a PhD in a natural or physical science subject (geography, environmental science, ecology, physics or similar) ? good programming skills (such as python or R) ? excellent communication skills in English (our working language), proven also by scientific publications ? Training or experience in Earth system or carbon cycle modeling is advantageous, but not essential. BENEFITS: ? the chance to be part of a dynamic team working at the frontier of Earth system science ? E13 TV-L position, commensurate with work experience, for three years starting May 2024 or soon thereafter, with the possibility to extend to a maximum of six years, based on performance, and to acquire a postdoctoral lecturer qualification (?Habilitation?). In the latter case, a contribution to teaching in the study programs of the Department of Geography is expected. ? career development through the LMU qualification program ? a stimulating working environment at one of Germany?s top-ranked universities. Our institute is located in the centre of the vibrant and internationally diverse city of Munich with excellent public transportation links. CONTACT: Please send an application outlining your fit for the position (including a cover letter, a curriculum vitae, copies of scientific degrees, and the names and contact information of two references) by e-mail (one PDF-attachment with max. 5 MB including all documents) with subject "SciRes-2024LMU" to climate.jobs at geographie.uni-muenchen.de . Deadline for application is March 18, 2024. For further information please contact Prof. Dr. Julia Pongratz (julia.pongratz at lmu.de ). Scientific programmer (m/f/x) for model-data integration (for two years with option for permanent position) YOUR TASKS AND RESPONSIBILITIES: Models are our main tool to project how ecosystems and climate evolve. But a key driver ? the vast usage of land through agriculture, forestry and urbanization ? is still lacking substantial detail in these models. This impairs our fundamental understanding of the interactions of humans, land, and climate, and is also critical as models are increasingly guiding political decision-making on land-use and climate to limit global warming. You can contribute to building the next generation of climate models, working at the intersection of numerical modeling, high-performance computing, and large-scale data analysis. You will contribute to strategic decision-making as well as to concrete design and implementation of land-use processes in our models.

ABOUT THE LAFI PROJECT: The quality of weather forecasts, seasonal simulations, and climate projections depends critically on the adequate representation of land-atmosphere (L-A) feedbacks. These feedbacks are the result of a highly complex network of processes and variables related to the exchange of momentum, energy, and mass. Significant challenges persist in understanding processes and feedbacks, which this initiative will address. The Land-Atmosphere Feedback Initiative (LAFI) is an interdisciplinary consortium, led by the University of Hohenheim, of researchers from atmospheric, agricultural, and soil sciences as well as from bio-geo-physics, hydrology, and neuroinformatics proposing a novel combination of advanced research methods. The overarching goal of LAFI is to understand and quantify L-A feedbacks via unique synergistic observations and model simulations from the micro-gamma (? 2 m) to the meso-gamma (? 2 km) scales across diurnal to seasonal time scales.

Marseille, France. Message-ID: 2 year postdoc: Atmosphere Microbial Habitability Modelling. Marseille, France. We are seeking a 24-month Postdoc (PhD-level position) in Marseille, France, to work on a Human Frontier Science Project (HFSP) funded project ?The atmosphere: a living, breathing ecosystem??. The project is a collaboration involving the MIO in Marseille (France), the University of Guelph (Canada), Monash University (Australia) and Arizona State University (USA). The position is under the supervision of Dr. James Bradley ( https://www.jbradleylab.com/). The overall aim of our project is to resolve the composition, capabilities, and activities of atmospheric microbes at a global scale, to distinguish whether the atmosphere exhibits structure and microbial activity characteristic of a true ecosystem, or if it is simply a passive dispersal medium for microorganisms. The postdoc will develop theoretical modelling approaches (including bioenergetics calculations and power-based ecosystem modelling) to investigate the potential habitability and ecological structure and function of microbial communities in the atmosphere. The initial focus for the postdoc is to model the habitability and ecological processes occurring in Earth's atmosphere, and then to translate the tools and knowledge generated to the atmosphere of other planetary bodies or exoplanets. The PDRA will develop, implement and apply microbial bioenergetics ecosystem modelling tools to study the atmosphere, including its resident microorganisms and its overall habitability. Modelling will focus on: (i) Connecting the physicochemical characteristics of the atmosphere with its (potentially) resident microorganisms. (ii) Determining plausible rates of energy-generating and energy-requiring reactions for atmosphere-dwelling microorganisms and assess catabolic and anabolic activity. (iii) Combining various (biological, geochemical and geophysical) datasets to assess the survival and potential growth of atmosphere-dwelling microorganisms (using data generated by the project, as well as existing data). (iv) Assessing habitability of Earth?s atmosphere and habitability indices of the atmospheres of other planetary bodies. The postdoc will be embedded within a larger international team of microbiologists, geochemists, engineers and astrobiologists who are working collaboratively to understand the atmosphere is as a 'living, breathing ecosystem'. The postdoc will be a full member of the HFSP research and as well as modelling, is expected to participate in the team?s data analyses and synthesis efforts, participate in cross-discipline collaboration, training and knowledge sharing exercises, and may take part in fieldwork. The position is based at the Mediterranean Institute of Oceanography on the Luminy Campus of Aix-Marseille University in Marseille, France, and will be expected to lead the presentation of findings at national and international conferences, and publish in leading academic journals. It is full time post for 2 years with the possibility of extension subject to available funds, with an expected start date in May 2024 or as soon as possible after that date. The successful candidate will be entitled to 49 days of holiday per year, with the possibility of remote working. The successful candidate will also enjoy a vibrant research group, access to excellent research facilities and platforms at the Mediterranean Institute of Oceanography and Aix-Marseille University, and be embedded in a team committed to high scientific integrity, open and reproducible science, and promoting inclusivity. Marseille is an affordable, vibrant and historic city on the Mediterranean coast, with culinary excellence, diverse cultural experiences, and a large international community. The candidate will be based in the Mediterranean Institute of Oceanography, on the Luminy campus of Aix-Marseille Universit?, which is surrounded by nature being nestled among the spectacular Calanques National Park. The Euraxess Center of Aix-Marseille Universit? informs foreign visiting professors, researchers, postdoc and PhD candidates about the administrative steps to be undertaken prior to arrival at AMU and the various practical formalities to be completed once in France: visas and entry requirements, insurance, help finding accommodation, support in opening a bank account, etc. The successful candidate should have: ? PhD (by time of appointment) in a relevant natural science discipline, and a track-record of research productivity, including peer-reviewed publications. ? Specialist knowledge and demonstrable experience in numerical, bioenergetic, ecosystem and/or habitability modelling. ? Strong mathematical skills and programming experience. ? Experience with analysis of observational and/or model-derived datasets. ? Strong understanding of microbial processes in the context of microbial ecology, habitability, astrobiology and/or extreme environments. ? Evidence of ability to publish research results in international peer-reviewed journals. ? Knowledge of the physics, chemistry, climate and biology of the atmosphere of Earth and/or other planetary bodies is desirable. ? Ability to organize and prioritize own work, and organize research within the project timetable. Informal enquiries should be made to Dr James Bradley ( james.bradley at mio.osupytheas.fr).

Are you interested in working on the development of practical modelling tools to predict and better understand the transport of PFAS in the soil-groundwater system, with the support of competent and friendly colleagues in an international environment? Are you looking for an employer that invests in sustainable employeeship and offers safe, favourable working conditions? We welcome you to apply for a xx position at Uppsala University. The Department of Earth Sciences at UU is Sweden?s largest and most versatile department of its kind with approximately. The research program for Air, Water and Landscape Science (LUVAL), has a long tradition of research on subsurface flow and contaminant transport, numerical modelling and model development as well as remediation studies related to contaminated soil, groundwater and sediments, including close collaboration with partners in industry and society. Our activities are interdisciplinary and combine natural science and technology with social science. For more information: The Department of Earth Sciences Project description Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are extremely persistent, harmful chemicals that have complex transport behaviors in the environment. To assess the risks and long-term environmental impacts of PFAS from contaminated hotspots, there is a great need for improved process understanding as well as modelling tools for PFAS fate and transport from source zones of contamination further into the environment and into recipients and drinking water resources. The overall aim of this project is to develop practically useful models for improved understanding and predictions of PFAS transport originating from contaminated hotspots. We will test existing models and further develop them to better account for transport processes and phenomena which are specifically important for PFAS, including retention processes at air-water interfaces, interaction/competition between chemical species and PFAS-specific sorption phenomena. Models for unsaturated and saturated zones will be tested and developed and will finally be integrated to create practical modelling tools to predict the transport from sources of PFAS contamination all the way to recipients. The project is a close collaboration between researchers at Uppsala University, the Swedish Geotechnical Institute (SGI) and the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. As a PhD-student you will be part of a dedicated research group working on PFAS. Data from contaminated sites connected to SGI's governmental assignment on PFAS will be used. The project is financed by the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency as part of a call on non-toxic life cycles which includes 6 projects in total. Duties Work on all parts of the research project, publish the results in scientific journals (these papers will be part of the PhD thesis), present results at national and international conferences as well as project meetings, contribute to the final technical project report and the dissemination of results.

Date: Tue, 27 Feb 2024 23:02:29 +0000 Subject: [ES_JOBS_NET] Funded Master's at Sacramento State Message-ID: Hello! We are hoping that you can help us spread the word about a funded master?s opportunity with Dr. David Shimabukuro's Water Resources Group at California State University, Sacramento. About our group: The Water Resources Group investigates potential connections between oil and gas production and potentially usable groundwater in California. We are funded by the California State Water Resources Control Board Regional Monitoring Program and US Geological Survey California Water Science Center. You can find more information about our research partners at the California Oil, Gas, and Groundwater program here. Our general approach is to use publicly available oil and gas well log records from the California Geologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM) to understand the 3-d relationship between stratigraphy, groundwater, and petroleum-production systems. We use borehole geophysical logs (resistivity, spontaneous potential, porosity) to map out the geologic framework of permeable rock and confining layers and to estimate groundwater salinity using petrophysical equations such as Archie?s equation. We then use detailed well construction histories to understand the depth of oil production and fluid/steam injection from casing perforations and the extent of physical barriers such as casing, annular cement, and plugs that prevent horizontal or vertical fluid migration. Visualization of the combined 3-d stratigraphic-groundwater-petroleum system can then be used to understand risk to potential usable groundwater. Our work is then presented to the California State Water Resources Control Board where it is used to inform regulatory decisions. All of our data is collected by our Water Resources Group, an amazing group of undergraduate and graduate students directed and managed by Theron Sowers. The primary data which we use only exists as CalGEM well records consisting of millions of pages of scans. Our students read through these documents, some of which are hundreds of pages and extend back into the 1800s, and extract important well construction data enabling us to have a better idea of potential threat to groundwater. We?re currently looking for prospective MS students that hold (or will hold) a bachelors in geology. Coursework in GIS, hydrogeology, geochemistry, and geophysics is useful but not necessary. All projects will require the use of the Python programming language but don?t let this scare you away as we can teach you from scratch. Note that our graduate program requires 2nd semester Calculus and Chemistry but these can be completed during the first year of our program. Future MS student projects could involve one or more of: 1) Mapping the salinity of groundwater in and around oil fields using borehole geophysical logs 2) Mapping the network of permeable sand layers that connect wells and aquifers 3) Documenting the evolution of water chemistry in aquifers through temporal changes in geophysical log response 4) Quantifying the role of well integrity problems that may allow vertical transmission. 5) Visit https://shimabukuro.squarespace.com/new-page for more examples of past projects Funding information: The Water Resources Group offers competitive funding at approximately $32,000 per year, with the opportunity to combine with teaching associateships. To apply: California State University, Sacramento Department of Geology offers a M.S. degree in Geology with While the formal application deadline for our program is March 1, 2024, late applications can be submitted through March 8 by contacting Dr. David Shimabukuro at dhs at csus.edu. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Link to job description and application submission website: PhD student to develop new methods for Critical Raw Material recovery from waste streams (hr-manager.net) PhD Student Opportunity: Develop New Methods to Recover Critical Raw Materials from Waste Streams (3-year, full-time, University of Copenhagen and Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland) Project description Many waste streams from essential services, such as drinking water treatment, have long been viewed as worthless by-products that require disposal via costly and unsustainable landfilling. However, the value of these waste streams is currently being redefined. Specifically, arsenic (As) has a global reputation as a toxic contaminant in drinking water, but in 2023, As was classified as a Critical Raw Material (CRM) in the EU and USA due to its growing use in high-value products needed for the Green Transition, including batteries and high-speed electronics. In addition, phosphorus (P) and antimony (Sb) are also valuable CRMs that occur at high levels in waste streams, including drinking water treatment sludge and the ash from municipal solid waste incinerators. With the recent CRM classification of P, As and Sb, these elements are also subject to the EU?s CRM Act, which sets recycling benchmarks for domestic production of all CRMs. Unfortunately, these waste streams continue to be viewed by the water treatment and waste management sectors with a linear-economic perspective, rather than being tapped for their high CRM recovery potential. This is largely due to the technical challenges of separating and upcycling P, As and Sb from heterogenous waste mixtures. This project aims to develop new CRM recovery technologies that extract P and As from drinking water treatment sludge and P and Sb from incinerator fly ash and convert each element into valuable compounds. These technologies will be based on chemical and electrochemical methods to first separate each CRM from their specific waste stream and subsequently purify and valorize each CRM. These objective can be performed, for example, by exploiting the different (electro)chemical properties of P, As and Sb, such as reduction potential, aqueous chemistry or affinity for binding to mineral surfaces. The PhD student will focus primarily on P, but will work closely with senior and post-doctoral researchers investigating As and Sb recovery from the same waste streams. This project also includes many potential opportunities for international research stays and field work in Berkeley, California and South Asia (i.e., West Bengal, India), where As contamination of groundwater poses a catastrophic health threat. Based on the potentially wide range of methods that can be used to recover resources from these wastes, a variety of expertise can contribute to this project. Therefore, qualified PhD students can have diverse technical backgrounds and interests, including environmental engineering, soil, environmental, physical, geo- and colloid chemistry and materials science. The project is a collaboration between the Department of Geochemistry at the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) and the Plant and Environmental Science (PLEN) Department at the University of Copenhagen. As such, the PhD student will be employed by GEUS with co-supervision by a senior researcher in the Department of Geochemistry and will be enrolled at UCPH with co-supervision by PLEN faculty. Your qualifications The appointment will be made on the basis of academic qualifications. You should have a MSc degree in environmental engineering, (nano)-geochemistry, electrochemistry, materials science or similar field or equivalent qualifications, and hands-on laboratory experience. The PhD student is also expected to have the following qualifications and interests: * Previous field work experience or interest in developing field work expertise is a plus, particularly in rural areas of South Asia * Interest or experience in synchrotron-based X-ray absorption spectroscopy and high-energy X-ray scattering methods to probe the structure and surface chemistry of (nano-scale) minerals is also a plus. * Curious and creative mind-set with a strong interest in technology design and sustainable solutions. Ability to teach undergraduate courses and proficiency in electrochemical methods is an advantage. But most importantly, we are searching for a highly talented, independent, motivated, and self-driven person who enjoys interfacing with researchers from different disciplines.

The United Nations set a goal to be carbon neutral by 2050, thus increased reliance on and construction of new carbon-neutral energy facilities is a key component in achieving the UN?s carbon neutral goal. Solar facilities development in the United States are identified as one of the frontrunners for carbon-neutral energy production and are projected to increase 3-4 times the current rate of construction. Concurrently, these solar farms eliminate hundreds of thousands of tons of carbon emissions annually while also transforming hundreds to thousands of acres to ground-mounted photovoltaic arrays and electrical infrastructure. Models predict that solar farms with native grasslands improve ecosystem services and increase pollinator biodiversity. However, we lack empirical evidence of the impact of vegetation management strategies employed by solar facilities on biodiversity in Texas. The goal of this project is to determine the ecological and economic impacts of current vegetation management strategies on biodiversity and compare them to alternative management strategies that may reduce costs and improve biodiversity metrics. The successful candidate will work closely with faculty in February and March 2024 to finalize the full proposal, as per the research program requirements and the position is anticipated to begin in summer/fall 2024. The graduate student will be housed in the Department of Rangeland, Wildlife and Fisheries Management at Texas A&M University in College Station, TX and field work will be completed in South Texas. Compensation is $2,800 per month. Required qualifications: * M.S. degree in range and wildlife management or closely related field conferred by May 2024. * Strong oral and written communication skills. * Demonstrated diligence and strong work ethic. * Driver?s license and ability to conduct independent field work in challenging conditions (e.g., heat, humidity, etc.). Preferred qualifications: * Working knowledge of South Texas plant identification. * Field experience in range and wildlife sampling methods. * Grant writing experience. * Experience working with a variety of stakeholders. The field work is scheduled for three years with an anticipated graduation date within 4 years. Please email a summary letter of interest and qualifications (3-page max.) and CV to: Dr. Stacy L.
