I am seeking a motivated PhD student to study carbon, water and energy fluxes in the discontinuous permafrost zone of western Canada using the eddy covariance and chamber techniques. The position is located in the Département de géographie at the Université de Montréal (http://www.umontreal.ca/) and is part of the NSERC-funded project “Influence of changing active-layer thickness on PERmafrost PeatLand trace gas EXchanges and carbon balance” (PERPLEX). The position is open immediately. The project provides a stipend of $20,000 CAD/yr for four years.
PhD Student Position – Atmospheric dispersion in stable conditions.
The Laboratory of Environment Transfers Modelling (LETM) and the Laboratoire d’Aérologie (LA) are seeking a PhD candidate. The 3-year position is funded by the French “Commissariat à l’Energie Atomique” (CEA). The PhD candidate is anticipated to commence in September or October 2012.
LETM is a research group of the CEA, aiming at the study of the dispersion of plumes from an emission area. For more details, see http://www-cadarache.cea.fr/fr/activites/fission/dtn/Plateformes/Environ...
We are seeking a bright and motivated individual to join our research team to study on soil carbon dynamic mainly based on an automated chamber network.

Title: Carbon flux / Southern temperate ecosystems in Chile
Organizations: Universidad de Chile and Institute of Ecology and Biodiversity
Location: Chile
Background:
A fully funded position is available for a PhD student to work at the Hawkesbury Institute for the Environment (HIE) in Richmond (Sydney), Australia.
The topic of the research will be the synthesis and analysis of plant water-use efficiency data at various scales, including canopy-scale observations from FLUXNET, leaf-level data, and more. The student will be advised by Remko Duursma (HIE), and work in close collaboration with Belinda Medlyn (Macquarie U.), Colin Prentice (Macquarie U.) and Almut Arneth (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology).
