Open PhD position Germany The Institute of Landscape Ecology and Resources Management (ILR)
The Institute of Landscape Ecology and Resources Management (ILR) holds an open PhD position (Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter, 50% Bat IIa) for 3 years starting June 2008 (DFG project ?Ensemble modelling of hydrological and nitrogen fluxes in mesoscale catchments?)
The candidate will be responsible to set up a suite of hydro-biogeochemical models (HBV, LASCAM, SWAT, CMF) to investigate catchment scale water and nitrogen fluxes for catchments in Germany, Sweden and Australia. These models will then be pooled in model ensembles to investigate the effect of predictive model uncertainty. The work will be conducted in close cooperation with Swedish and Australian project partners.
Applicants should have strong skills in hydrological and/or biogeochemical modelling. The work will include programming and statistical data analysis as well as GIS based data evaluation. Candidates should be team-players, fluent in English, and have the ambition to publish their results in peer-reviewed international journals. The position requires travelling to Sweden and Australia and several weeks to months stay at the project partner?s institution.
Salary follows the rules of the German public service (Bat II a/2). The Justus-Liebig Universit?t Gie?en seeks to increase the number of female scientists and encourages them to apply. Handicapped persons with comparable qualifications receive preferential status.
