Postdoc opportunity in probabilistic post-fire hillslope processes and novel radionulide methods
Colorado School of Mines, Colorado, United States
Apply before: 30 June 2023


We invite applications for a postdoctoral researcher to join an NSF-funded project examining the impacts of climate-driven shifts in wildfire frequency on hillslope sediment transport processes and long-term erosion rates. The project uses a combination of novel short-lived radionuclide analysis, high-resolution topographic data and field measurements to calibrate a probabilistic model for bioturbation-driven postfire erosion and particle motion under changing surface conditions associated with wildfire and post-fire recovery.

Primary responsibilities will be to 1) conduct and publish independent research related to sediment transport mechanics and novel radionuclide methods, and 2) assist in managing a research group of undergraduate and graduate students. Funding is available for 1 year with possible extension.

Start date: The position start date is targeted for July 15, 2023; however this date is negotiable.

Qualifications

  • PhD in Earth science, geoscience, or related field (must be complete before starting)
  • Expertise in hillslope sediment transport processes and familiarity with short-lived radionuclide dating for soils (e.g., Cs-137, Pb-210, Be-7).
  • Strong publication and/or grant writing record.
  • Quantitative, organizational and time-management skills.
  • Ability to mentor a team of undergraduate and graduate students.

Salary: $68,000 + full benefits

How to apply: Applications must be submitted electronically through the application portal below and should include the following:

  • CV
  • Cover letter outlining your relevant research interests, experience and skills, and how these align with the position.
  • Contact information for 3 professional references (name, title, professional relationship, email address).
