We are looking for a 3-year Postdoctoral Fellow in hydroclimatic ecosystems services of wetlands. Interested? Apply before 10 January 2025!

Read more and apply here: https://lnkd.in/dcS_6mnS

The candidate will work on the project Disclosing the Overlooked Wetlandscape Ecosystem Services (DOWES). The main objective of DOWES is to resolve the interlinkages between water availability in wetlandscapes, their responses and stressors, and the provision of ecosystem services within and beyond their area of influence through synthesis across multiple wetlandscapes.

The postdoc employed by this call will focus on the work packages 1 and 4 of DOWES, that is, WP1) quantifying changes in water availability with space-base technologies such as altimetry, InSAR, Gravimetry and SWOT, and WP4) quantifying the provision of hydrological and hydroclimatic ecosystem services of wetlandscapes beyond the area of influence with hydrological and hydroclimatic modeling.

Figures describling the research:
Figure 1. a. Differences between a wetland unit and its wetlandscape. The ecosystem services provided by a wetland unit (i.e., ES1-3) are expected to be much smaller than those provided by the entire wetlandscape (e.g., WES1-3). Analysis at the wetlandscape scale may also uncover overlooked ecosystem services only detectable beyond the area of influence, such as downstream, downwind, or down-the-chain of wetlandscape products (e.g., WES4-5; pink patterns). b. Example of a wetlandscape: The Magdalena floodplain wetlandscape (MAG; red) and its two wetland units protected by Ramsar (black squares). The MAG comprises the main river, floodplains, riverine communities, and various wetlands systems.
