Offre d'emploi en Nouvelle Zélande : Pedometrician

Purpose
To undertake research, consultancy and research support for soil and landscape mapping, modelling and information management to support and verify sustainable and wise use of natural assets (soil, water, carbon, and as well as a range of ecosystem services).
Primary Objectives
The position is part of the Soils & Landscapes team within Landcare Research.  The team comprises more than 40 staff, at five sites across New Zealand.  We lead research on understanding the complex inter-relationships that control the response of soils and landscapes to climatic and human-induced pressures, evaluating current risk, offering sustainable land use and natural resource allocation options.
This position will contribute to research on the characterisation and evaluation of New Zealand’s soil and land resources.  Specifically the researcher will:

  • Conduct research and application in digital soil mapping (pedometrics), soil carbon accounting, morphometrics and proximal sensor interpretation.
  • Contribute to on-going development of S-map and soil information, its spatial coverage and fitness to support key models and tools. This will include soil attribute mapping (e.g. soil carbon).
  • Be expected to support, and in time develop sizable research or consultancy contracts on soil-land-water interaction
