Scholarship Description: The Marine Palynology group of the department of Earth Sciences, Faculty of Geosciences, Utrecht University, is looking for an enthusiastic Post-Doc researcher to work within the project “Reconstructing the evolution and the dynamics of the Antarctic cryosphere from Ocean Drilling: a dinoflagellate perspective” funded by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research, Netherlands Polar Program (NWO-NNPP). The project aims at reconstructing the cryosphere evolution and dynamics of Antarctica along with changes in its marine ecosystems from its inception during the Greenhouse-Icehouse transition (~34 Ma) through subsequent periods of major climate changes during the Oligocene, Neogene and Quaternary. This project will use material from sediment cores retrieved around Antarctica during IODP (Integrated Ocean Drilling Program) Expedition 318 (Wilkes Land, East Antarctic margin) and other coring/drilling Expeditions to the Ross Sea, Western Antarctic Peninsula and the Southern Ocean. This highly international and multidisciplinary project is primarily based on marine palynological (dinoflagellate cysts) and organic geochemical analyses. Close collaboration with colleagues from other disciplines makes a wide knowledge of proxies for climate reconstructions desirable.
