Postdoctoral Position in Stable Isotope Geochemistry

Position Overview:
The posted UC salary scales set the minimum pay determined by rank and/or step at appointment.
See Table 23: Postdoctoral Scholar-Employee, Postdoctoral Scholar-Fellow, Postdoctoral Scholar-Paid
Direct, Fiscal Year. The salary range for this position is $66,737-$80,034. 'Off-scale salaries', i.e., a
salary that is higher than the published system-wide salary at the designated rank and step, are offered
when necessary to meet competitive conditions, qualifications, and experience.

Join the DRIAR (Dry Rifting in Albertine and Rhino Graben) project at UC Davis' Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences and contribute to cutting-edge research on magma-poor rifting in the East African Rift System (EARS). The department offers a world-class, intellectually stimulating environment that values its people and fosters innovative research aimed at addressing significant scientific and societal challenges in Earth and Planetary Sciences.

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher in geochemistry and stable isotope geochemistry to contribute to an integrated 3-D geophysical, geological, geochemical, and geodynamic study. In this role, the postdoctoral fellow will:

Investigate the chemical and isotopic signatures of volatiles (CO2 and 3He/4He) and gas flux (CO2) to assess the extent of magma sources beneath the rift system.
Use He-C relationships to quantitatively assess volatile inputs from the mantle to the crust and surface.
Quantify the variability of tectonic CO2 flux to the atmosphere associated with rifting.
Compile and synthesize published and unpublished data for hot springs in amagmatic and magmatic continental Rift systems.
Perform other duties as assigned.

Desired Qualifications:

Doctoral degree in geochemistry or a related field.

Strong computational, modeling, and analytical skills.

Experience with stable isotope ratio mass spectrometry (a must).

Ability to mentor graduate and undergraduate students.

Proven ability to conduct independent research and disseminate results in peer-reviewed journals and conference proceedings.

Application Materials: Please submit your CV, a cover letter outlining how your research experience and interests relate to the geochemistry and stable isotope geochemistry of aqueous systems and gases, and the contact information for three referees who will provide letters of reference.

Application reviews will begin on December 1, 2024, and continue until the position is filled.
Be part of a multidisciplinary research team advancing understanding of continental rifting processes!
