Hello all,
I am on a search for outstanding candidates to partake in this postdoctoral
fellowship:
Subject: Postdoc Position - Experimental Geochemistry for Geologic
Hydrogen at UNC Charlotte
The Department of Earth, Environmental and Geographical Sciences at UNC
Charlotte seeks a postdoc researcher for a DOE/ARPA-E funded project on
geologic hydrogen generation.
Position: 2-year postdoc in Experimental Geochemistry
Focus: Molecular hydrogen from serpentinization reactions ("orange
hydrogen")
Start: ASAP
Project:
- Evaluate geochemical controls of orange hydrogen generation
- Implications for clean energy and early Earth conditions
- Collaboration with Lawrence Berkeley National Lab
- Utilize advanced analytical techniques: isotopic tracers, Mössbauer
spectroscopy, magnetic methods, and gas chromatography
Research Approach:
- Experimental examination of fluid chemistry effects on serpentinization
and hydrogen production
- Employ thermodynamic modeling and spectroscopy/chromatography methods
- Quantify reaction progress and characterize iron speciation in products
Requirements:
- PhD in Geochemistry or related field
- Experience with hydrothermal geochemistry, isotope geochemistry, and
analytical techniques preferred
To apply: Contact Dr. Drew Syverson (dsyverso@charlotte.edu) with CV and
reference contacts.
Please use this link to provide the required documents:
https://jobs.charlotte.edu/postings/58084
This is an exciting field to consider given that we few have experimental
constraints on low-T serpentinization processes. Further, beyond modern
Earth, these proposed experiments in this fellowship will be informative
for seawater-ultramafic crust interactions at a range of relevant ancient
geologic and hypothesized astrobiological conditions.
