Postdoctoral Position, Carbon Cycling by Fine Roots and Mycorrhizal Fungi, University of New Hampshire (Durham, New Hampshire) and Jones Ecological Research Center (Ichauway, Georgia). A 3-year post-doctoral position is available starting Spring-Summer 2008 to study the effects of precipitation on belowground carbon allocation and storage by fine roots and mycorrhizal fungi in pine savannas. The field site is at the Jones Ecological Research Center in southern Georgia; additional labwork will focus on isotopic analyses including compound-specific measurements and be carried out at the University of New Hampshire. Either location could be the home institute. This project is funded by the Department of Energy's National Institute for Climate Change Research. For inquiries, please contact Dr. Robert Mitchell at the Jones Ecological Research Center ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) or Dr. Erik Hobbie at the University of New Hampshire ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). Candidates with an interest in carbon dynamics, isotopic analyses, or belowground processes are preferred.
