Subject: [Fluxnet-Community] post doc opportunity carbon-nutrient cycle model development and evaluation, MPI Biogeochemisty, Jena, Germany
The terrestrial biosphere modelling group (https://www.bgc-jena.mpg.de/bgi/index.php/Research/GlobalModelling) at the Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry in Jena, Germany, has immediate openings for two postdoctoral researchers. The successful candidates will work as part of an interdisciplinary team to advance scientific understanding on a) soil-vegetation interactions under elevated CO2 using a novel ecosystem model that accounts for nutrient cycles and the effects of microbial interactions and mineral stabilisation for soil organic matter decay; b) the capacity and limits of global carbon-nitrogen cycle models that will be used for the upcoming climate model intercomparison project (CMIP6). More details can be found here: https://www.bgc-jena.mpg.de/bgi/index.php/Jobs/QUINCY
Your profile
- PhD degree in a quantitative natural science (e.g. geo-ecology, environmental science, biology, or applied mathematics)
- profound knowledge of soil organic matter dynamics (job #1), model evaluation (job #2), as well as ecosystem modelling, and global biogeochemistry
- very good programming skills
- demonstrated ability to write publications in scientific journals, preferably in the field of soil and plant sciences
- good communication and organisational skills
- good knowledge of English
The conditions of employment, including upgrades and duration follow the rules of the Max Planck Society for the Advancement of Sciences and those of the German civil service (TVöD-Bund). The Max-Planck Society is committed to increasing the number of individuals with disabilities in its workforce and therefore encourages applications from such qualified individuals. Furthermore, the Max Planck Society seeks to increase the number of women in those areas where they are underrepresented and therefore explicitly encourages women to apply.
Please send your inquiries and/or applications including a letter of interest, CV, and the names and contact information of two references to Dr. Sönke Zaehle (szaehle -at- bgc-jena.mpg.de), or directly to the institute’s address (S. Zaehle, Max-Planck-Institut für Biogeochemie, Postfach 10 01 64, 07701 Jena, Germany).
