Job description

The Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at Syracuse University seeks applicants for a Postdoctoral Researcher to assist in the management of the Noble Gas Geochemistry laboratory and perform noble gas geochemistry research. This is a fully funded, full-time, one-year position, subject to renewal. The candidate is expected to work in person.

The Noble Gas Geochemistry laboratory contains two state-of-the-art noble gas mass spectrometers (a Helix SFT and an Argus VI) and two extraction and purification lines (one for fluids and one for rocks). The Noble Gas Geochemistry laboratory will be able to analyze the full suite of noble gases in gas, water, and rock samples. The candidate will conduct experimental noble gas work in shallow and deep groundwater, natural gas, and rock samples. The candidate will be expected to collaborate with faculty members in ongoing research projects with the possibility to conduct independent research. The successful candidate will also have the option to participate in teaching, including lectures and laboratory teaching of both undergraduate and graduate students.

Applicants should also have a demonstrated record of research and publication and hold a PhD in geochemistry or a related field before starting this position.

Applications will be evaluated as soon as they are received and the position will remain open until filled.
