**Post-Doctoral Research Fellow**:
**Job description**
- We are seeking to recruit an ambitious and independent Post Doctoral Research Associate to work on the NERC-funded project, InsPIRE - Investigating Peatland Initiation in Retreating Glacier Environments - which examines how deglaciation stimulates peatland initiation and carbon sequestration. InsPIRE will assess spatio-temporal patterns of proglacial peatland formation to determine the processes of peatland development in response to past, present and future glacier recession. The project combines novel observational data and state-of-the-art model simulations to quantify the influence of glacier-related peat patches in carbon cycling. We seek an enthusiastic and highly skilled individual to reconstruct proglacial peatland dynamics, a role that will involve both fieldwork in Alaska and multi-proxy laboratory analyses, to provide a holistic assessment of glaciological controls on peatland formation.
- Working here means you’ll have access to a wide range of benefits including our generous pension schemes, excellent holiday entitlements, flexible working, reduced study fees, subsidised fitness facilities and a lot more.
