Biogeochemistry
Development of molecular markers for the study of carbon and nitrogen biogeochemistry
Biogeochemistry and Geomicrobiology
A graduate research assistantship is available to pursue research in microorganism– mineral interactions...
Climate and Tectonics in the Andes and Central Asia
Highly motivated PhD and MSc students are sought to work on a variety of problems in tectonic geomorphology with Lindsay Schoenbohm. Students are needed in particular for two recently funded projectsin the Andes and Turkey.
Contaminant Hydrogeology and Deep Subsurface Biogeochemistry and Astrobiology
Projects are available in the areas of Contaminant Hydrogeology and Deep Subsurface Biogeochemistry and Astsrobiology
Contaminant Hydrogeology and Deep Subsurface Biogeochemistry and Astrobiology
Projects are available in the areas of Contaminant Hydrogeology and Deep Subsurface Biogeochemistry and Astsrobiology
Geochemistry
Hydrothermal ore systems and processes, Chemistry of the ocean/lower atmosphere and fluid/vapur/melt inclusion research techniques
Global biogeochemical cycles/marine geochemistry
We are always looking for M.Sc, Ph.D., and post-doc colleagues to join our team. We use cutting edge analytical equipment and a transdisciplinary approach to explore new frontiers in science. We use computer modeling, stable isotope geochemistry, microcosm culture experiments, and field data to investigate the feedbacks between life and geological processes.
Paleomagnetic study of the Matachewan dyke swarm
A position is available for a Ph.D. student to study the evolution of the 2.45 Ga Matachewan dyke swarm.
Plio-Pleistocene dinoflagellate cysts and paleoceanography of the North Atlantic region
A PhD studentship is available for the NSERC-funded program: "Pliocene dinoflagellate cysts, geochemistry, and paleoceanography of the North Atlantic region" in the Department of Earth Sciences, University of Toronto, Canada.
Stratigraphy and sedimentology
Field-based projects to better understand the mechanisms of stratigraphic preservation and to expand our knowledge of the architecture and sequence stratigraphy of nonmarine deposits.
Tectonophysics
Various research projects in large-scale tectonophysics. These primarily involve reconciling geodynamic modeling with geophysical/geological/geodetic observables in specific tectonic regimes.
