PhD PosiƟon in Salt Marsh Soil Biogeochemistry
UGA
The successful candidate will conduct research characterizing soil mineralogy and organic maƩer
composiƟon in salt marshes along the Georgia coast. This broad spaƟal characterizaƟon will be
complemented by lab‐based experiments tesƟng physical and chemical mechanisms of organic maƩer
protecƟon under varying redox condiƟons. In addiƟon to advancing wetland soil science theory, this
research will assiststate and federal partnersin idenƟfying properƟes of dredge material that can enhance
carbon burial in beneficial use projects.
The student will gain experience in advanced geochemical and organic maƩer characterizaƟon techniques.
