5. Postdoctoral Position in project Gastronomic Landscapes

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

In the project, we are seeking to use the lens of gastronomy as an entry point for possible solutions to the challenges of the global food system, highlighting how culinary craftsmanship and innovation, from cooks in local communities to chefs of leading restaurants, have the potential to drive shifts towards sustainability. We are hiring a Postdoctoral fellow to focus on the role of gastronomy for biosphere stewardship in land- and seascapes.

The research will focus on learning from case studies of links between landscape/seascape management and gastronomy. Diverse knowledge systems have developed techniques for getting both nutrition and cultural satisfaction from diverse land- and seascapes, in ways that are also embodied in local cuisines. The Postdoctoral fellow will also analyze the potential role of gastronomy in incentivizing changes in dietary patterns, from food with high to low environmental impact.

6. Postdoctoral Position in Arctic Paleoceanography

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

The Department of Geological Sciences (IGV) is expanding the analytical capacity of its marine and lacustrine core-processing laboratory. We are adding an X-ray CT scanner and a Hyperspectral infrared (IR) core imaging system, as well as upgrading our current Multi-Sensor core logger and XRF-core scanner. The X-ray CT system provides detailed images of sedimentary structures, and allows volume reconstructions of pore space properties, and quantification of important sedimentary features (i.e. ice-rafted detritus and bioturbation).

Hyperspectral infrared imaging of marine and lacustrine sediments is gaining increased popularity and has been used to quantify the amount, type and source of organic matter (marine vs terrestrial), and identify crypto-tephra that can provide critical geochronological information for paleoceanographic studies. This two-year post-doctoral project is aimed at developing applications for these systems on Arctic marine, and possibly lacustrine, sediment cores on recent (Holocene) or longer (Pleistocene) timescales.This includes developing user-friendly application-specific processing routines for the large data-sets generated by both systems.

Application Deadline: 1 December 2022

7. Postdoctoral Position in LSST DESC

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

We are searching for a highly motivated individual to work partly on innovative research projects and partly to develop scientific software infrastructure for the international Dark Energy Science Collaboration (DESC), which aims to make high-accuracy measurements of fundamental cosmological parameters using data from the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) observed by the Vera C. Rubin Observatory.

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory is a next-generation astronomical facility currently under construction in Chile. Rubin’s LSST will be one of the largest and most comprehensive astronomy surveys of its kind, enabling countless discoveries in astronomy and physics. To take best advantage of the LSST data, DESC develops new methods for obtaining state-of-the-art, robust cosmology constraints and builds robust, high-throughput software pipelines to simulate, re-process and analyze images and catalogs at LSST scale.

Application Deadline: 7 November 2022

8. Postdoctoral Position in Ecology

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

The position will be associated with the project “Developing a cost-efficient control program for the invasive plant Lupinus polyphyllus” financed by the Swedish Transport Administration and the research council FORMAS. The overall aim of the project is to develop a cost-efficient program to control the invasive species Lupinus polyphyllus in Sweden. To reach this aim, we use a two-fold approach. First, we examine in what geographic regions and under what environmental conditions that Lupinus constitute a potential problem. Second, we assess how cost-efficient different management practices are to reduce long-term population growth rates in areas where the species constitute a potential problem.

9. Postdoctoral Position in Environmental Analytical Chemistry

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

The position will be associated with the project “Persistent organic chemicals in high-altitude atmosphere and ecosystems” financed by the Swedish Research Council FORMAS. Persistent organic chemicals (POCs) were recently found also at high altitude at the world’s highest atmospheric observatory (5240 masl), the Chacaltaya GAW station (CHC) in Bolivia.

This project examines the hypothesis that the free troposphere is a critical long-range transport medium and leads to increasing POC contamination and subsequent risk to humans and ecosystems at high altitudes. The project aims to understand FT-mediated pollutant transport and potential sources, through close collaboration with atmospheric, meteorological, geological, and environmental scientists from European and South American institutes.

Application Deadline: 30 November 2022
