Assistant Professor in biogeochemistry of forest/wetland soils in boreal landscapes

The research direction of the position is open, but should focus on biogeochemical processes in forest and/or wetland soils in boreal landscapes. The research should include biological, chemical or physical aspects of biogeochemistry, and may include the interaction between soils and the biosphere-hydrosphere-atmosphere.

Applicants using theoretical, experimental as well as modelling approaches are welcome.

Postdoctoral Position in Carbon Biogeochemistry in Boreal Peatlands

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researchers with focus on: Carbon biogeochemistry in boreal mires.
The main focus of this position will be determined very much by the experience and interest of the successful candidate.Examples of possible field of interest include ecosystem modeling, studies on organic matter decomposition, control on land atmosphere exchange of CO2 and CH4, isotope studies, importance of plant species both for carbon fixation and for decomposition etc.

Postdoctoral Position in Trace Gas Fluxes in Boreal Peatlands

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher with focus on: Exchange of carbon (CO2, CH4 and DOC), energy and water between the mire and the atmosphere and hydrosphere.
This position requires skills and experience from micrometeorology and Eddy-Covariance measurements. The core activity of this position will be to interpret, analyze, synthesize, and write up papers from existing data resulting from eddy covariance (carbon, water and energy exchange, etc.), chamber (CH4 and CO2), water runoff measurements (CO2, CH4 and DOC) e.t.c. Experience from manipulation and evaluation of large data sets are therefore essential, also knowledge of programming languages for data manipulation and statistical analyses is a merit. You will however also to some extent be involved in maintenance and measurements at the field site.
