Job Description:
The post-doctoral fellow will conduct research on the short-term fluxes of carbon in terrestrial ecosystems and the influence of weather events and climate on these fluxes. The project aims to analyze and characterize the rain-induced carbon fluxes using eddy-covariance data and improve the quantification methods for their contribution to the ecosystem budgets. The duties include conducting research, participating in Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services in a Changing Climate (BECC) activities, supervising degree/master/PhD projects, and actively seeking external research funding. Teaching may be included up to 20% of working hours.
