We are seeking applications for a post-doctoral research associate. The project is a joint effort between the University of Wisconsin – Madison and the Northern Research Station of the USDA Forest Service. The research will focus on: 1) assessing decadal-scale baseline shifts in lake chemistry in northern Wisconsin, and 2) mechanistic experiments to discern effects of changing atmospheric deposition and climatic variability on lake chemistry.
Responsibilities include:
• Establishment of a productive collaboration with researchers at the Center for Limnlogy on the University of Wisconsin campus in Madison, WI (advisor Dr. Emily Stanley); at the Forest Service office and laboratory in Grand Rapids, Minnesota (advisors Dr. Stephen Sebestyen and Dr. Randy Kolka); and at the North Temperate Lakes Long Term Ecological Research site in Boulder Junction, WI as well as with resource managers on the Chequamegon-Nicolet and nearby National Forests.
• Participation in field sampling campaigns for a series of study lakes, completing laboratory analyses on water chemistry samples for major solutes, and data processing.
• Designing and conducting studies focused on mechanisms affecting spatial and temporal variation in lake water chemistry
• Leading the preparation of publications for peer-reviewed scientific literature.
Qualifications: Ph.D. in limnology, hydrology, biogeochemistry, geochemistry, ecology, or related fields prior to appointment and experience with field work in aquatic environments. Experience/interest in use of large data sets is desirable. This duration is envisioned to be two years. Salary includes standard benefits of the University of Wisconsin Madison. The position closes September 1st and could begin as early as October13th.
For more information on the position contact both Dr. Stephen Sebestyen (ssebestyen@fs.fed.us) and Dr. Emily Stanley (ehstanley@wisc.edu).
