PhD opportunity in Environmental Analytical Chemistry at the University of Stuttgart , within the Research Facility for Subsurface Remediation (VEGAS-IWS) . The project is part of the DFG-funded IRIS-PFAS initiative and focuses on PFAS , stable isotopes , Orbitrap mass spectrometry , and environmental forensics . The successful candidate will develop novel Orbitrap-based stable isotope methods for PFAS source identification. This is a research-intensive position at the interface of analytical ch...

Max Planck Institute for Biogeochemistry (MPI-BGC), Jena, Germany, is advertising a postdoctoral scientist position in atmospheric inverse modeling to constrain high-latitude greenhouse gas budgets . The project focuses on the Arctic and boreal carbon cycle, with particular attention to methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) fluxes, permafrost-related processes, landscape disturbance, and links between land-surface dynamics and atmospheric greenhouse-gas mixing ratios. The successful candidate wi...

MSc opportunity at the University of Guelph in the School of Environmental Sciences (SES), located in Guelph, Ontario, Canada . This thesis-based MSc project focuses on microplastics in agricultural soils , with particular attention to how microplastics enter soils through municipal composts and biosolids . The research aims to develop and validate innovative methods for detecting and characterizing microplastics by combining simultaneous thermal analysis (STA–FTIR) and FTIR microscopy . A key g...
