Postdoc in plant hydraulic conductivity and water relations: We are looking for a highly motivated individual to work on an NSF funded project dealing with plant hydraulic responses to CO2 enrichment. Persons with a PhD in appropriate fields including plant water relations, ecophysiology, ecohydrology, are encouraged to apply. Experience/familiarity with root and shoot measurements of hydraulic conductivity, gas exchange, sapflow, water relations and tissue nitrogen chemistry is highly desirable. Demonstrated ability to publish peer-reviewed papers and effective written and oral communication skills is also a plus. The work will include travel to FACE facilities at Duke University and SOYFACE in southern Illinois as well as travel to Harvard University. Salary is competitive and commensurate with experience.
