英国约克大学2021年招聘博士后职位（重大文化转型对海洋生态系统功能和生物多样性的影响）

Research Associate X 2

University Of York

Description

The Project

The departments of Archaeology and Chemistry wish to appoint two postdoctoral Research Associates to contribute to the project “SEACHANGE: Quantifying the Impact of Major Cultural Transitions on Marine Ecosystem Functioning and Biodiversity”. This 6-year grant is funded by the European Research Council and led by Professor James Scourse at the University of Exeter with collaborators at the University of York, Johannes Gutenberg University, Copenhagen University, University of Queensland and University of Bergen. The project will apply a structured and systematic approach to the reconstruction of marine ecosystem baselines and quantify the impact of cultural transitions on marine ecosystems. It will investigate five key cultural transitions: the European transition to farming (8000 to 5000 years BP; WP1), the European pre-industrial to modern (last 2000 years; WP2), the Australian hunter- gatherer (aboriginal) to colonial (last 6,000 years; WP3), the Viking age settlement of Iceland (WP4) and the advent of intensive whaling/fishing in Antarctica.

The Roles

The Department of Chemistry wishes to appoint an analytical chemist/geochemist to be responsible for conducting amino acid research from modern and ancient marine specimens under the direction of Professor Kirsty Penkman with the support of Dr Sam Presslee.

Skills, Experience & Qualification needed

First degree and PhD in Chemistry, Earth Science, Environmental Science, Biology, Archaeological Science, or related subject

Knowledge of chemistry and its application to ancient samples

Experience of carrying out both independent and collaborative research in a relevant subject area

Experience of working with chromatography and/or mass spectrometry

Highly developed communication skills to engage with a wide-ranging audience, both orally and in writing, using a range of media

The Department of Archaeology wishes to appoint an isotope geochemist to be responsible for conducting stable isotope analysis of tissues from ancient and modern marine organisms under the direction of Professor Oliver Craig with the support of Dr Helen Talbot.

Skills, Experience & Qualification needed

First degree and PhD in Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science, Archaeological Science, or related subject

Expertise in stable isotope analysis with analysis of compound specific isotopes

Experience of carrying out both independent and collaborative research in a relevant subject area

Experience of writing up research work for publication

Highly developed communication skills to engage with a wide-ranging audience, both orally and in writing, using a range of media

Expertise in marine ecosystems is desirable

The Department of Archaeology and the Department of Chemistry are internationally renowned for their research and strive to provide working environments that allow all staff and students to contribute fully, to flourish, and excel. Both departments are proud of their Athena Swan Awards (Gold, Department of Chemistry; Bronze, Department of Archaeology).

Postholders will be part of the BioArCh group, which hosts a range of archaeological and environmental scientists working on palaeoecology and palaeoenvironmental reconstruction and will work collaboratively with the larger SEACHANGE team of over 30 scientists, including other isotope geochemists, marine ecologists, zooarchaeologists and oceanographers.

Applicants should indicate the role they wish to be considered for in their application.

For informal enquiries: please contact Professor Kirsty Penkman, Department of Chemistry (kirsty.penkman@york.ac.uk) or Professor Oliver Craig, Department of Archaeology (oliver.craig@york.ac.uk).
