    Default job background
    Description
    Postdoctoral Fellow - Crop Ecophysiology Location:
    202C BRC, Clemson, SC
    Open Date:
    Feb 13, 2024
    Description:

    A postdoc position is available in the Crop Ecophysiology laboratory ( in the Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences at Clemson University, Clemson, SC, for three years.
    Project Description
    Clemson University, in partnership with South Carolina State University and 27 other entities, is executing a pilot project, "Building Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities in South Carolina", to provide incentives to farmers to implement selected climate-smart production practices (cover crops, reduced tillage, mulching, nutrient management, incorporation of legumes in forages, and uneven-aged silviculture). The project will measure and verify the carbon and greenhouse gas benefits associated with climate-smart practices and will support the development of markets for the resulting climate-smart commodities. The state-wide project will focus on representative agricultural production sectors of South Carolina and the Southeast, including vegetables, peanuts, beef cattle, and forest products, and will ensure meaningful involvement of small and underserved producers.
    In the Peanut sector, the project collaborators will evaluate cover crops as single species or mixtures under conventional and reduced tillage to determine cover crop-by-tillage interaction effects on soil moisture retention, greenhouse gas emissions, soil carbon, and crop productivity. The proposed activities will determine suitable cover crops for the state and identify their benefits compared with conventional monocropping practices.
    The Crop Ecophysiology Lab is part of the 'peanut group'. The postdoc will make measurements on cover crop and cash crop aboveground and belowground biomass and water. The postdoc will work with other collaborators in the measurement team to quantify other parameters and with the extension team to coordinate measurement activities in grower fields.
    Essential Duties and Responsibilities
    The postdoc will also participate in other crop ecophysiology projects apart from the 'Climate-smart' project. The postdoc will be responsible for setting up experiments, collecting and analyzing data, coordinating student work and other associated personnel, and writing up and disseminating results. The postdoc will work with field and lab technicians and mentor and guide graduate and undergraduate students.
