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:

Design, preparation, implementation and coordination of laboratory (batch, column) and field (biostimulation) experiments on denitrification, with different electron donors. Water sampling, pretreatment of samples and chemical/isotopic analysis.

Interpretation of geochemical and isotopic results (especially, isotopic composition of N and O in dissolved nitrate and other nitrogen species), drawing conclusions and integration into project reports.

Coordination of working teams, follow-up and revision of the technical/ economical development of the project; implementation of project Tasks, participation to project meetings and workshops; support to the activities of dissemintation of scientific results; preparation of project reports, deliverables and scientific works for international jounrals; presentation of results at international and national Conferences.

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