The Landscape Evolution and Luminescence Geochronology Laboratory at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln studies how landscapes evolve and change due to environmental and anthropogenic drivers. Much of the lab’s work involves dating sediments or artifacts with luminescence dating methods.
As a Geology Research Technician, you will:
Process sediment samples and analyze sediment and soil samples in the laboratory. Analyses will include dating sediments with optically-stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating and particle size analysis of samples using a laser diffraction particle size analyzer.
Subsample sediment and soil cores for analysis.
Assist with generating materials for publications, including geologic maps and other manuscripts.
This position is part-time, 20 hours per week. Within the UNL system, this position is classified as a Research Technician III.
Application Review begins Jan 12.
