Application Due: 03/13/2012

Type: Full Time

A post-doc position is available to join a research group focused on
eddy covariance and chamber measurements, and modeling of greenhouse
gases (GHGs) emissions, plant growth, irrigation and fertilization for
agricultural lands. Prospective candidates need to have a strong
background in boundary layer meteorology, as well as extensive IT and
programming skills.

The position is aimed to improve the capabilities of an existing plant
growth model to simulate the soil-water-fertilizer-plant-air interaction
to improve water and fertilizer efficiency and yield, and reduce GHGs.
Finally, the model will be converted to an online geospatial tool so
that stakeholders can easily access and use.

Requires a PhD in boundary-layer meteorology, computer science, ecology,
agricultural engineering, geospatial information, or related field;
modeling and instrumentation (eddy covariance) experience preferred;
demonstrated record of writing and/or publishing of manuscripts.
