We are looking for a highly motivated PhD candidate to join the Hydrological and Climate Variability Group at the Czech University of Life Sciences, Prague starting in autumn 2024. The PhD research will contribute to the understanding how climate change affects extreme weather events. Particular attention will be given to the impacts of extreme weather events on the hydrological cycle (regional to global scale). The candidate should have an MSc degree in environmental science, hydrology, meteorology, climatology or equivalent.

We seek candidates with:
Sound programming/noscripting skills (e.g., R, Python).
A big advantage would be the ability to work with large-scale datasets and familiarity with netCDF format is appreciated.
Interest and good knowledge of statistics.
Familiarity with basic hydrologic and climate characteristics.
Fluent English.
The PhD candidate will be requested to write scientific publications and present results at international conferences. International collaboration is expected within the PhD project (e.g. Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research – UFZ, Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Germany).

Please send your motivation letter and CV as a single pdf file to Dr Oldrich Rakovec rakovec(at)fzp(dot)czu(dot)cz by 15th August 2024.

We are seeking a Postdoctoral Associate to join our project team using a model-experiment (ModEx) approach to explore the exciting prospect that significant dormant-season plant nitrogen (N) uptake occurs in northern forests, thereby acting to alter the overall coupled carbon-nitrogen (C-N) cycle. The postdoc will work with our project team to interpret and model measurements of 15N tracer studies of cold-season N uptake at two experimental sites. In addition, they will explore the significance of cold-season uptake in altering the coupled C-N cycle under a future climate using an Earth System Model. The postdoc will be based at Cornell University in Ithaca, NY.
 
The Postdoctoral Associate will be supervised by Peter Hess (BEE) and Christine Goodale (EEB) at Cornell, on a project collaborative with Qing Zhu (LLNL) and Peter Groffman (Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies).
Required Qualifications:
• Ph.D. in a discipline relevant to climate/ecosystem modeling (e.g. physics, mathematics, atmospheric science, ecology, engineering).
• Proficient programming skills in at least one major scientific computing language (e.g. Fortran, Python, Julia, C++, etc.).
• Strong quantitative and data analysis skills.
• Willingness and ability to assume a leadership role in and conduct research as part of a larger team.
• Good communication and interpersonal skills.
Preferred Qualifications:
• Experience and proficiency with model formulation and simulations in state-of-the-art Earth System Models.
• Experience with model formulations of the C-N cycle.

🌟 PhD Opportunity: Water Scarcity Governance 🌟
📍 Location: Wageningen University
📅 Apply by: August 12, 2024

Are you passionate about the social science dimensions of climate change and water scarcity? Do you want to contribute to knowledge on how everyday citizens, policymakers and water service providers are responding to Day Zero situations where water sources become critically low? Then this PhD may be for you!

Join the Wageningen Centre for Sustainability Governance as a PhD Researcher to explore diverse societal responses to hydroclimatic risks.
This role involves studying disruptions from severe droughts and examining water scarcity in varied societal contexts (e.g. USA, South Africa, India, Nepal, and Kenya). You will link risk governance with social practice theories, review literature and policy documents, map stakeholders, conduct qualitative fieldwork with everyday citizens, policy and provisioning actors, and analyse practices. You will also engage in science-policy activities and produce academic publications.

We seek candidates with a strong social science background, expertise in quantitative and qualitative methods, experience in fieldwork abroad and a Master’s in a relevant field. Strong research skills and fluency in English (CEFR C2 level) are essential.

You'll be part of the Public Administration and Policy Group @WUR and the Environmental Policy group (ENP), supervised by myself (Johanna Koehler, (PAP) and Mary Greene (ENP).
