The Department of Natural Resource Sciences of McGill University invites applications for a tenure-track position in Environmental Soil Chemistry. The successful candidate will conduct research with a focus on the chemistry of degraded soils, particularly as it applies to urban and peri-urban agricultural and contaminated sites. Research areas of particular interest include the remediation and restoration of soil quality of degraded and contaminated sites, and the behavior, bioavailability and transport of trace metals and organic contaminants.
