M.S. and Ph.D. in Environmental Soil Chemistry Project 1: M.S. and Ph.D. Graduate Research Assistantships. Two positions are available for highly motivated graduate students to join a project funded by the USDA to explore the role of native iron minerals in the cycling of nitrogen in Kentucky soils. A strong background in soil science, geochemistry, chemistry, or a related field is desired. The candidates will be expected to conduct reactivity experiments studying pertinent processes such as electron transfer, adsorption/desorption, precipitation, and complexation using advanced analytical and spectroscopic tools (GFAAS, UV/VIS/NIR, EPR, and XAS). The assistantships are available IMMEDIATELY and include competitive annual stipends and tuition waiver.
