德国阿尔弗雷德韦格纳研究所-亥姆霍兹极地和海洋研究中心2024年招聘博士后（海洋生物地球化学）

PostDoc in Marine Biogeochemistry for the Project "KomSo" (f/m/d)

AWI - Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research

Background

KomSo is a collaborative project of the marine research institutes AWI, GEOMAR, Hereon an IOW, as well as the Federal Agency for Nature Conservation (BfN) and the NGO German Federation for the Environment and Nature Conservation (BUND). The overarching goal is to record and evaluate the carbon storage potential of marine sediments in the German Baltic Sea and identify regions worthy of protection and suitable for restoration. Specifically, we seek to combine measurements of sedimentary organic carbon content and remineralization rates with sedimentation rate measurements and the spatial distributions of controlling environmental parameters in order to:

quantify the sedimentary organic carbon (OC) content for Baltic Sea sediments;

assess their OC accumulation rate and OC storage capacity;

parameterize OC sedimentation and remineralization and extrapolate rates in the Baltic Sea.

Your Tasks

You will be responsible for:

the planning and conduct of ship-based sampling campaigns;

the measurement and analysis OC content and improvement of measurement accuracy by conducting an intercalibration of methods between project partners;

determining sedimentation rates using isotope geochemistry (210Pb and 137Cs);

collecting and merging existing data sets of OC accumulation and controlling parameters;

applying diagenetic models and conducting a meta-analysis with Baltic Sea boundary conditions; and

presenting results in scientific journals and to non-experts in a comprehensible form.

Your Profile

PhD in geoscience, bioscience, or environmental sciences;

Expertise in organic carbon mineralization processes;

Expertise in sediment transport and depositional processes in coastal waters;

Experience in carbon analytics and isotope geochemistry;

Experience in data-based inverse modeling;

Willingness and capability to participate in seagoing expeditions.

Further Information

For any questions you may have, you are very welcome to get in touch with Dr. Moritz Holtappels (Tel: +49 471 4831 2030, moritz.holtappels@awi.de) or Prof. Dr. Sabine Kasten (Tel +49 471 4831 1936, sabine.kasten@awi.de).

This is a full-time position, limited to 32 months. It is also suitable for part-time employment. The salary will be paid in accordance with the Collective Agreement for the Public Service of the Federation (Tarifvertrag des öffentlichen Dienstes, TVöD Bund), up to salary level 13.
