Research officer III

The International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) seeks to recruit a Research officer III - Eddy Covariance to supervise the performance of two existing experimental sites with eddy covariance (EC) flux towers and other environmental sensors in two semi-arid areas in Machakos County, Kenya to measure ecosystem CO2, CH4 and H2O exchange, and to manage and process the resulting GHG flux data jointly with other environmental sensing data.
ILRI works to improve food and nutritional security and reduce poverty in developing countries through research for efficient, safe and sustainable use of livestock.
