What are the responsibilities and job description for the Post Doctoral Research Associate position at The University of Texas at Arlington?
Job Summary
The Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at The University of Texas Arlington invites applications for a full-time Post Doctoral Research Associate position in Tracer Hydrology and/or Environmental Geochemistry.
The candidate should hold a Ph.D. in Earth and Environmental Sciences, Hydrology, Hydrogeology, Geochemistry, or a related field, with a strong track record of peer-reviewed publications, conference presentations, and participation in proposal writing. Her/his technical proficiency should encompass isotope geochemistry, hydrogeology, and numerical modeling. A deep understanding of serpentinization processes, including water-rock interactions, hydrogen and methane production, and mineral phase transformations, is an asset. The candidate should be adept at scientific programming languages such as Python or R (preferentially), with demonstrated experience in handling complex geochemical databases, data visualization, and statistical analysis. Her/His research background should include field experience in groundwater/surface water sampling and laboratory expertise in isotope and geochemical analyses, complemented by proficiency in groundwater age modeling. The ideal candidate should also demonstrate strong collaborative abilities, including excellent written and verbal communication skills, experience in interdisciplinary team environments, and the capability to mentor students while contributing to grant proposals and research funding initiatives. Our tracer hydrology and geochemistry analytical strengths include the on-campus Shimadzu Institute for Research Technologies ( https://shimadzuinstitute.org/ ), particularly the Shimadzu Center for Environmental, Forensics, and Material Science, and the Tracer Hydrology Group ( https://tropicalwaterscr.wixsite.com/hydro ).
Required Qualifications
Applicants should have a PhD in Earth and Environmental Sciences, Hydrology, Hydrogeology, Geochemistry, or a related field.
Preferred Qualifications
Preference will be given to candidates with a track record of research and scholarly activity in the expected research areas.
Essential Duties And Responsibilities
The primary responsibility of the research faculty will be to work as an active researcher with the faculty mentor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences. This will include conducting research leading to publications and participating in the development and submission of related research grant proposals in the areas of tracer hydrogeology, serpentinization, and characterization of natural hydrogen generation conditions.
