The Department of Earth Sciences at Carleton University invites applications from qualified candidates for a 2-year appointment in geophysics at the rank of Instructor. The candidate will be expected to teach courses, beginning September 1, 2018, in geophysics, geodynamics at the second, third and fourth year levels, and to co-supervise undergraduate Honours student research projects and independent studies.
This project has the overall goal to provide tools to study past bottom water deoxygenation, and advance the field of proxy calibration via a novel combination of biological processes and biomineralization studies. The project will use modern foraminifera from low-oxygen environments and study their geochemistry, perform mesocosm experiments with forams, and genetically characterize forams. This is a four-year fully paid PhD position and includes full Swedish social system benefits.
