PhD Student at The Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry in Jena

Overview
The Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry in Jena is inviting applications for a 3-years position of a PhD student in Modelling the effects of air pollution on terrestrial carbon and nitrogen cycles.

The PhD-project will be integrated into a large-scale European research effort to better understand the effects of air-pollution on land ecosystems. Using a global carbon-nitrogen cycle ecosystem model, the project will exploit ecological data bases and/or ecophysiological theory to improve the representation of critical plant physiological processes and plant-soil interactions. The improved model will then be evaluated using results of ecosystem studies and manipulation experiments and used to estimate the likely present-day and future effects of air pollution on terrestrial carbon sequestration and reactive nitrogen losses.
