Opis stanowiska

We are pleased to announce a Postdoctoral position to investigate biogeochemical cycling in deep sea benthic environments using in situ technologies. This position is based at the Department of Biology, University of Southern Denmark (SDU) in Odense, Denmark, and involves close collaboration with the Deep-Sea Ecology and Technology group at the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) in Germany and with our international academic and industry partners.The successful candidate will be embedded within , an international research section focusing on biogeochemical cycling, earth evolution, and microbial processes. Nordcee houses a Center of Excellence for deep sea studies called . The Postdoc is expected to work closely with mechanical engineers and technicians at SDU and at AWI, and with our partners in industry to develop the next generation of our in-situ sensing technologies to investigate carbon cycling in deep sea environments. Specific tasks may include but are not limited to:

• Testing underwater frames and instrumentation, including sensor testing and calibration
• Quantifying benthic biogeochemical fluxes and momentum fluxes in situ from high-density datasets (e.g. using eddy covariance)
• Quantifying biogeochemical fluxes in the laboratory (e.g. using oxygen microprofiling and sediment incubations)
• Sediment solid phase and porewater analyses
• Coordinating shipment of equipment, including servicing and maintenance
• Joining expeditions aboard research vessels
• Presenting results at scientific conferences and thematic workshops, and publishing peer-reviewed articles in international journals

The ideal candidate would have a PhD in geoscience, marine science, environmental engineering, or related disciplines, would have experience handling in situ instrumentation and working alongside technicians and engineers, and would have good writing and communication skills. The position is for 2 years with possibilities for extension.About Nordcee
