The Hawkesbury Institute’s multidisciplinary team of scientists is addressing key questions about the impact of climate change on the function of the plants, animals and soil microbial organisms that inhabit the earth’s terrestrial ecosystems http://www.uws.edu.au/hie.
The Institute is seeking to appoint an energetic academic to a Level A position. This 3-year, full-time, Postdoctoral Fellowship will focus on research related to an Australian Science and Industry Endowment Fund (SIEF) grant ‘Forests for the future: making the most of a high CO2 world’.
The research will utilise a novel strategy that rapidly identifies trees that exhibit a strong, positive growth response to elevated CO2 (eCO2), and the genetic attributes underlying these responses. We will use two commercially important eucalypt species grown under varying CO2, temperature and soil moisture conditions to characterise the impacts of eCO2 on key physiological traits underpinning forest tree growth. We are harnessing decades of research within our laboratories on climate impacts on plant growth and physiology, and subsequently linking it to modern genetic finger-printing, in order to provide a fast, reliable and inexpensive method to select winners and losers in a high CO2 world.
