The aim of the project “NPP-SOL” is to prevent surface and ground-water bodies from agricultural non-point source pollution under Mediterranean conditions using modelling and technological tools. The project integrates site-specific best management practices to improve soil, water, fertilizers, and crop management with site-tailored, affordable-cost and sustainable tecnologies designed to intercept the pollutants before they reach the groundwater and surface water bodies.

Overall, the Tasks to be performed will be to dinamically participate and provide support to all project activities in which UB is involved as partner, with special focus on those to be implemented at the spanish Case Study (Constructed Wetland in Zaragoza province).

Namely, the research scientist will be in charge of:

Water sampling campaigns and other activities at field site.

Supporting the design, set-up and implementation of field experiments on denitrification, with different electron donors. Design calculations, water sampling and measurements of physico-chemical parameters, installation and maintenance of sensors and field equipment; follow-up of piezometers installation etc.

Correction and interpretation of geochemical and isotopic analytical results (especially, isotopic composition of nitrate and other nitrogen species) and preparation of analytical reports.

Active participation in meetings and interactions with the local stakeholders involved in water management and uses: administrations, users, local communities, etc.

Implementation of project Tasks, participation to project meetings and workshops; support to the activities of dissemination of scientific results and to the preparation of project reports/deliverables; writing scientific papers for international journals, participation to international and national Conferences.

Supervising undergraduate, MSc, and/or interchange students and laboratory technicians, and working closely with PhD students and postdocs, within an interdisciplinary research team.

Potential involvement in laboratory management and Quality Assurance Systems.
