Job description

The Department of Geosciences and Natural Resource Management (IGN), University of Copenhagen is recruiting a three-year Postdoc in the Field of soil stable isotope biogeochemistryThe main objectives of the postdoc work will be contribution and development concerning ongoing as well as new activities addressing the biogeochemical dynamics of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) in soil. The research has a specific focus to utilize stable isotope analysis for explain the dynamics of isotopes in soluble and reactive components, e.g. TOC/TN, mineral N, and gaseous forms of N and C.The work will include implementation of newly achieved isotope instrumentation for soluble C analysis as well as facilitation and improvement of gaseous isotope analysis. This work is linked to two ongoing projects (Land-CRAFT.dk) and “KlimaKalk” (Climate-chalk) and will be in a close collaboration with scientists from IGN-geography as well as national and international collaborators.The candidate must have a strong background in soil CN-biogeochemistry and notably knowledge about stable isotope analysis will be considered favorable. An interest in working with advanced instruments (IRMS and isotope lasers) is expected for this position.The postdoc’s duties will include research outlined above, as well as teaching and supervision of BSc-, MSc- and PhD-students.Further information on the Department is linked at .Inquiries about the position can be made to professor Per Ambus (peam@ign.ku.dk).The position is open from 1/2/2025or as soon as possible thereafter.The University wishes our staff to reflect the diversity of society and thus welcomes applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal background.
