University of Sydney 2022 Soil Organic Carbon Postgraduate Research Scholarship: (Deadline 4 July 2022)

This scholarship aims to support a student undertaking a PhD on approved projects funded by ARC within the Faculty of Science.

This scholarship aims to support a student who focus their research on the stability of organic carbon associated with different clay minerals and artificial soils using advanced spectroscopic studies including nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (NanoSIMS), Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS), and synchrotron based – scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM) and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS).

About University Of Sydney

When William Charles Wentworth proposed the idea of Australia’s first university in 1850, he imagined “the opportunity for the child of every class to become great and useful in the destinies of this country”.
