Job Description: At the University of Calgary, the Applied Geochemistry Group has an opening for a postdoctoral scholar. This is a full-time position with the option to work in-person, or hybrid (or a combination of both) for up to 1 year (with potential for extension) with a preferred start date in early 2025. The ideal candidate combines experience in groundwater quality assessments with expertise in geospatial analyses and statistics. The project investigates the causes of decadal-scale changes in groundwater quality in Alberta. The successful candidate will use approaches including statistical and geospatial analyses of provincial-scale groundwater quality and land use datasets from the Alberta Biodiversity Monitoring Institute (ABMI) to identify land use impacts on the quality of shallow groundwater. The Investigations will focus on areas where increasing trends in nitrate and chloride have been found in shallow groundwater (<150 m). In combination with isotopic and geochemical data, the research team led by the post-doc will assess where anthropogenic impacts on shallow groundwater have occurred and which land use changes have facilitated change. The science is enabled by a provincial-scale historical groundwater quality dataset with over >6M results and the ABMI Human Footprint Inventory with >5M polygons delineated for >100 feature types from SPOT6 satellite imagery. Human footprint occupies 31% of Alberta, with agriculture covering 21%. Most of the human footprint in central and southern Alberta is a result of the province's farming legacy since the late 1800s. Previous studies in Alberta have shown the effects of agricultural land use on shallow groundwater contaminants including local changes in nitrate and chloride concentrations where confined animal feeding operations impacted groundwater quality from manure application at the land surface. While a province-wide picture of groundwater quality variations is emerging very recently, there has not yet an analysis of how temporal trends relate to land use changes throughout the last decades. The postdoc will join the Applied Geochemistry Group (AGG) at the University of Calgary (https://live-ucalgary.ucalgary.ca/applied-geochemistry-group). AGG researchers collaborate with the Geospatial Centre at the ABMI at the University of Alberta (https://abmi.ca/abmi-home/what-we-do/land-cover-and-land-use-mapping.html) led by Dr. Cynthia McClain, the Alberta Geological Survey (Dr. Jessica Liggett) and other collaborating agencies. Qualifications: The ideal candidate combines experience in groundwater quality assessments with expertise in geospatial analyses and statistics. We are looking for a candidate with 0 to 4 years of experience after completing their PhD. Minimum qualifications include a PhD degree in Science or a related field, significant experience in water quality assessments, and demonstrated experience in working with geospatial analyses and statistics related to land use information.

Project Synopsis Cities are expanding around the world, with unexpected impacts on the non-human organisms that live there. Recently, it was discovered that urban trees grow four times faster than rural trees, despite there being a multitude of environmental stressors in cities and the loss of typical belowground mechanisms for nutrient acquisition, stress tolerance, and pathogen protection. It remains a mystery how trees thrive in urban environments without their belowground support system for nutrition and stress tolerance. The objective of our project is to solve the mystery of accelerated tree growth in cities by determining the mechanisms of nutrient acquisition and stress tolerance for urban trees. We hypothesize that city trees operate by an alternative ?rule of life?, where urbanization shifts tree survival strategies from belowground roots to aboveground canopies, such that trees and their phyllosphere microbiomes take advantage of atmospheric pollution as sources of water, nutrients, and stress protection to support faster tree growth in cities. We will test this overarching hypothesis through two aims: Aim 1: determine urbanization effects on aboveground vs. belowground mechanisms of tree water and N uptake. We will take field-based measurements (Aim 1.1) of (i) N inputs from atmospheric deposition, (ii) natural abundance stable isotopic measurements of ?15N (for N) and ?18O and ?2H (for water) movement from the atmosphere to tree tissues, microbial biomass, and soils, and (iii) a field-based 15N isotopic tracer experiment across a recently established, model urban-to-rural gradient. We will also conduct a whole-tree level 15N tracer and microbiome manipulation experiment in growth chambers (Aim 1.2) to examine the fate of N into specific plant and microbial biochemical pathways using stable isotope probing (SIP) metatranscriptomics. Aim 2: determine urbanization effects on particulate matter (PM)-O3-tree physiology relationships. We will quantify relationships between atmospheric PM and O3 concentrations, leaf-level photosynthesis vs. photoinhibition, and stomatal clogging by PM in the field (Aim 2.1) using a combination of deposition monitoring, photosynthesis measurements, and high-resolution tree leaf surface imaging on trees across our urbanization gradient. To test for direct PM impacts on tree physiology, we will conduct a second growth chamber experiment (Aim 2.2) that simultaneously manipulates ambient O3 and PM levels and measures impacts on tree leaf photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, and plant growth rates. The data we generate on how trees cope with or exploit the urban environment has the potential to completely redefine our understanding of how organisms acclimate to a rapidly changing world. If atmospheric pollutants like N or PM in cities provide a source of nutrition and stress protection for city trees, then efforts to improve overall urban air quality could lead to progressive nutrient limitation in urban trees and make them more vulnerable to O3 phytotoxicity. Our study will provide data that directly informs these types of environmental regulation policies, optimizing them for specific components of air pollution (e.g. PM, N, O3) at local and regional-scales.
