<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">We seek applications for a postdoctoral research associate in wetland greenhouse gas fluxes at Clemson University for a period of two years with the possibility to extend.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Overview/background<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Increasing understanding of the sources and controls on emissions of potent greenhouse gasses (GHGs) including carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>), methane (CH<sub>4</sub>), and nitrous oxide
(N<sub>2</sub>O) remains a global research priority. Wetlands and agricultural systems have been identified as understudied emission hotspots. Coastal South Carolina has a diverse land use and land cover types that are experiencing pressures from human development
as well as changing climate and sea level rise. More information is needed on how biogeochemical processes and GHG fluxes in these diverse soils, spanning natural and managed ecosystems, will respond to environmental change.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">The postdoc will be expected to lead research efforts using a new, NSF-funded, integrated soil greenhouse gas flux measurement system, including a Cavity Ringdown Mass Spectrometer coupled
to up to 16 automated soil gas flux chambers. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">The postdoc will be co-advised by Dr. Tom O’Halloran (biometeorologist) and Dr. Alex Chow (biogeochemist) and will have the opportunity to work as part of a collaborative team, with members
located at Pee Dee and Coastal Research and Education Centers as well as Clemson University main campus, that includes Dr. Rongzhong Ye (soil biogeochemist), Dr. Raghupathy Karthikeyan (agricultural and environmental engineer), Dr. Brian Ward (horticulturalist),
and Dr. Barbara Campbell (microbial ecologist) to investigate multiple dimensions of soil GHG emissions.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
