The University of Queensland is offering both PhD and postdoctoral research opportunities in the Soil Science group, focusing on nutrient management and potassium cycling in soils and plants. The research aims to understand how fertiliser potassium behaves in diverse Australian soils and to improve potassium nutrition in grain systems using advanced techniques. The group is led by Professor Peter Kopittke, an expert in soil science and plant nutrition, and includes Timothy McLaren. Candidates for the PhD position should have a strong background in soil science, agriculture, or related fields, while postdoctoral applicants must hold a relevant PhD and have experience in nutrient cycling research. The positions are based at The University of Queensland, a leading institution in agricultural innovation.
