The Institute of Arctic Biology (IAB), at the University of Alaska
Fairbanks, invites applications for a postdoctoral position to conduct
metadata analysis and research for the project "Assessing the Role of
Deep Soil Organic Carbon in Interior Alaska: Data, Models and Spatial /
Temporal Dynamics."

The successful candidate will conduct studies that include (1) the
compilation of soil carbon data from a number of collaborative projects
into a relational database, and (2) development and application of
multivariate statistical models, to estimate deep soil carbon storage in
a spatially explicit fashion throughout Interior Alaska. Individuals
interested in combining research interests in soil dynamics and
hydrology with quantitative ecological analysis are strongly encouraged
to apply. A PhD (already received or awaiting receipt with all
requirements fulfilled) is required.

Applications for this position can be submitted at the following URL:
