The microbial biogeochemistry<https://www.njbouskill.com/> laboratory at Oregon State University has two postdoctoral positions.
* Disturbance microbiome position (see here<https://hr.oregonstate.edu/open-postdoctoral-scholar-positions/njb-microbiome-project>): looks at how disturbance in Rocky Mountain forests impact microbial trait distribution and biogeochemical cycling. This would be suitable for someone with a background in metagenomic and metabolomic analysis, and familiarity with isotope geochemistry (nitrogen & strontium). * Hillslope biogeochemical modeling (see here<https://hr.oregonstate.edu/open-postdoctoral-scholar-positions/hillslopetraits-project>): uses an ecosystem model (EcoSIM<https://github.com/jinyun1tang/EcoSIM>) to examine how the composition of hillslope traits (e.g., vegetation, soil properties, aspect, topography) regulates water, carbon and nitrogen cycling , and determines hillslope exports to watersheds under an increasing frequency and severity of drought conditions. This would suit someone with a strong background in ecosystem modeling, and biogeochemistry. Informal enquires can be directed to Nick Bouskill ([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>).
