Postdoctoral Position – Isotope Hydrology
The Isotope Ratio Ecology and Hydrology (IREH, www.purdue.edu/eas/ireh) group in the Earth and Atmospheric Sciences Department is soliciting applications for a Postdoctoral Associate to conduct research on forensic water resource assessment using light stable isotopes. The research will develop tools allowing investigators to rapidly determine source(s) of water within distribution systems of varying complexity.
The successful candidate will be quantitatively-oriented and willing to travel within the USA and internationally to establish water sampling programs. Preference will be given to candidates with a strong background in isotope hydrology and experience with GIS and geospatial data. The Postdoctoral Associate must hold a Ph.D. at the time of appointment and must be a U.S. citizen.
The position offers competitive salary and benefits and is available Aug. 15, 2009 with an initial 1-year appointment and possibility for renewal up to 3 years. Applications will be reviewed beginning immediately and until the position is filled.
