Read MoreUniversität Salzburg – two 3 years PhD positions in Geomorphology (w/m/d)
The positions are funded through the project Climate change impacts on mountain river basins (CLIMB), that aims at understanding the impact of climate warming on the sediment flux from the mountain cryosphere. CLIMB will involve both, field- and laboratory-based work, as well as numerical modelling and GIS-analyses. The two successful candidates will work closely together. One will focus on reach scale, employ a monitoring and mapping approach, and utilise field and lab techniques to characterise and source-trace sediments. The second candidate…
