<span lang="EN-US">The Marine Micropaleontology working group led by Prof. Dr. Denise Kulhanek at Kiel University in Germany is looking for a Postdoctoral Researcher to begin on or after 3 December 2025. The position is initially for three years, with the opportunity
to extend for an additional three years. The researcher will join the SVALCLIME project, which aims to explore deep-time Mesozoic climate archives from the sedimentary record of Svalbard and compare with other regional and worldwide records to examine ecosystem
response and resilience to environmental perturbations caused by large igneous province volcanism. The researcher will also have the opportunity to develop their own research program and seek external research funding. There is also a teaching requirement
associated with this position.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
