The Faculty 7: Natural and Environmental Sciences invites applications for a PhD position
in Environmental Sciences / Environmental Physics for a joint project of the Institute for Environmental Sciences at the Campus Landau/Pfalz, and the Federal Institute of Hydrology (BfG) in Koblenz, Germany.
The initial appointment is for 1 year and
can be extended to 3 years; salary will be according to the German public service salary scale (50% TV-L 13).
Position details:
The PhD project aims at a quantitative and process-based understanding of the flux paths of
dissolved oxygen and nutrients in managed rivers. The relevant sources, sinks and transport rates, e.g. sediment-water fluxes, will be investigated as a function of discharge, turbulence and temperature stratification using state of the art measurement techniques.
This interdisciplinary study is integrated into the BfG project KLIWAS (Consequences of climate
change for navigable waterways and options for the economy and inland navigation) and the
emerging research theme Land-Water Ecotones at the Institute for Environmental Sciences.
Please contact Prof. Dr. A. Lorke (lorke@uni-landau.de) for further information.
Requirements:
Applicants must have completed a Master of Science or Diploma in a field relevant for the required tasks. We further expect advanced education and a strong interest in environmental physics and applied mathematics.
It is the policy of the University of Koblenz-Landau to increase the percentage of female
employees. If equally qualified, preference will be given to female applicants. Disabled candidates are given priority, if equally qualified. International candidates are highly encouraged to apply.
Applications should include a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, documentation of previous teaching and research activities and research interests. Applications using the reference number 34/2009 must be sent to the following address: Universität Koblenz-Landau, Präsidialamt,Isaac-Fulda-Allee 3, 55124 Mainz, deadline: April 20, 2009.
