VAO Symposium 2025, 02.-04.04.2025 Kaprun/ Austria Every two years, the VAO Symposium facilitates the exchange of the latest research findings and future collaborative research pursuits in the Alps among members and interested individuals. The symposium emphasizes productive interdisciplinary collaboration among those working in the Atmosphere, Cryosphere, Hydrosphere, Biosphere, Relief, and Lithosphere fields. For this the symposium focuses more on transdisciplinary workshops than on individual talks and aims to develop future research ideas and projects over two days. Aim: Transdisciplinary…
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…

A 3-year Research Associate (Postdoc) position is available at the Institute of Geology, Mineralogy, and Geophysics at Ruhr University Bochum. The position is within the new working group ‘Geomorphology and Geohazards’, which focuses on the evolution of Earth’s surface during the Quaternary. The group uses a combination of field, laboratory, and numerical methods to understand the interplay between transport, weathering, and erosion processes, as well as their climatic and tectonic drivers at the Earth’s surface, including human-landscape interactions. The position…
