cycling across the Arctic (based in Abisko)

Dear colleagues,



Johan Olofsson and I, in collaboration with Sara Hallin and Karina
Clemmensen in Uppsala, are re-advertising a* postdoc-position (3 years)
focussing on year-round plant and microbial carbon and nitrogen cycling
across the Arctic.* I hope you will help us spread this information to
suitable candidates!



Deadline for application: *2 January 2023*



https://www.umu.se/en/work-with-us/open-positions/postdoc-position-3-years-focusing-on-plant-and-microbial-carbon-and-nitrogen-cycling-across-the-arctic-_567456/



The holder of the position will investigate year-round seasonal
(a)synchronies in plant and microbial carbon and nitrogen cycling in
terrestrial ecosystems across the Arctic, and how these are driven by
large-scale environmental and community variation.



The position is part of a large interdisciplinary project that aims to
understand and quantify how processes during the arctic winter may be
decisive for overall feedbacks from arctic tundra to the global climate.
Arctic ecosystems store large amounts of organic carbon in plants and soil.
Uptake of carbon by arctic plants is strongly limited by their access to
nutrients, especially nitrogen, due to competition by microbes. Year-round
carbon and nitrogen balances thus depend the activities of plant and
microbial communities and their seasonality. This multidisciplinary project
will involve a research team of about eleven senior and postdoctoral
scientists, four PhD students and three technical staff. Together, we will
advance basic knowledge of plant and microbial activities during the cold
season. The project will further assess the environmental drivers and
community traits that may be used to up-scale and predict effects of
asynchronies on year-round carbon and nitrogen balances of tundra.



The position will be based in Abisko. More information can be found via the
links above. We welcome all applications!





Thanks for your help, and apologies for cross-postings.



Best wishes,



Ellen
