Post Doctoral Fellow in Atmospheric Sciences -- University of Illinois



The Energy Biosciences Institute at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to conduct innovative research examining the biophysical implications of large scale biofuel production as part of an interdisciplinary research program. The specific duties include the integration of an existing biogeochemical cycle model with an agriculture crop model to explore our understanding of how biogeochemical systems interact with land cover and land use and agriculture crops. This research will also investigate the implications of large scale production of biofuels in the U.S. and other countries for agricultural land use, soil carbon sequestration and greenhouse gas emissions.


A Ph.D. in atmospheric sciences or another related field in the sciences or engineering is required. The applicant should have working experience with high speed super fast computers, numerical simulation models and ability to analyze satellite data for land use changes and dynamics of the agro-ecosystems. Key factors in our hiring decision will be intelligence, thoughtfulness, creativity, motivation, productivity, and a record of successful scientific publication.


Applicants should send the following materials by email to Prof. Atul Jain at jain1@uiuc.edu (1) curriculum vita, (2) a letter describing research interests and experience, and (3) names and contact information for three references. Review of completed applications will begin January 15, 2008 and continue until position is filled.
