A fully-funded PhD position is available in the Institute of Earth Surface Dynamics (IDyST) at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland, focussing on understanding Quaternary sedimentary dynamics at the global scale. Wind-blown deposits accumulate under specific climatic conditions and provide valuable archives of palaeoenvironmental change. Over the past few decades, an enormous amount of data has been generated constraining these records (timing of deposition, environmental properties). In this project, we seek to compile these data into a database and to apply…
