Post-doctoral position in Ecosystem-Atmosphere Exchange of CO2 at San
Diego State University

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position to conduct
ecosystem-atmosphere exchange of carbon with stable isotope ratio
measurements at AmeriFlux sites. Carbon-13 ratios and concentrations of
atmospheric CO2 are being measured at weekly intervals at ten sites
where simultaneous measurements of eddy covariance CO2 fluxes also are
available. We seek a motivated individual to conduct modeling activities
with focuses that will (1) demonstrate factors that regulate seasonal
and interannual variability of carbon isotope ratio of ecosystem
respiration, (2) integrate stable isotope and eddy flux measurements for
interpreting controls of NEE fluxes, and (3) develop regional models
that use network-wide isotope data as constraints for regional estimates
of carbon budget.

The successful candidate is expected to produce peer-reviewed
publications that address the project objectives. Desired applicants
should have a Ph.D. degree in Ecology, Earth System Science,
Micrometeorology or a relevant discipline and fluent proficiency of the
English language. Strong quantitative skills in data analysis and
numerical modeling with MATLAB are advantageous. The ideal candidate
would have experiences in modeling biosphere and ecosystem processes and
applying stable isotope ratio technique in carbon studies. Training and
experience in geographic information systems is a plus. Salary will be
commensurate with experience.

Appointments can begin as soon as a suitable candidate is found. To
apply, please send your curriculum vitae including a list of
publications, a research statement, and a list of three references to:
