Description

Associate Professorship in Deep Sea Marine Aggregates

At the Department of Biology, University of Southern Denmark, we seek a colleague with an expertise in microbial ecology and biogeochemistry. The position is a 30% part time position offered at the level of associated professor from 1 April 2021 or as soon as possible thereafter. Application deadline: 2 March 2021.

Danish Center for Hadal Research, HADAL, is a centre of excellence funded by the Danish National Research Foundation, exploring the biogeochemistry and microbiology of hadal trenches. We are looking for a person who has a proven record of investigating diagenetic processing and nitrogen cycling in sediments and microbial aggregates. Experience with micro sensing technology, 15N incubation approaches and high-pressure effects on microbial performance is mandatory. The successful candidate will be part of a team exploring pelagic and benthic carbon and nitrogen turn-over as a function of hydrostatic pressure.

The selected candidate will also work within the wider research group of the Nordcee centre that focus on the dynamics of modern ecosystems as they control the cycling of bioactive elements on both local and global scales, and the evolution of biogeochemical cycling over geologic time. Opportunities for interaction also include other members of the Department of Biology and in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.

The selected candidate will be expected to have and further develop an internationally recognized research profile. Teaching responsibilities include upper-level courses in biogeochemistry and microbial ecology, as well as lower-level basic courses in biology.
