Working time: 100 % (39 hours per week), at first limited to 3 years, earliest possible starting date: 1st April 2019
Your tasks:
- Set-up and application of numerical models for coupled groundwater-surface water systems at key TERENO field sites
- Simulation of hydrologically mediated biogeochemical turnover
- Explorative modeling to develop new parsimonious model concepts for water and solute dynamics (e.g. via dynamic residence times)
- Support of scientists and students in the department in modeling tasks
- Development of a research profile within the interdisciplinary team of the department in line with the programme oriented research at UFZ in the respective field
Your profile:
The potential candidate should have a Ph.D. degree and a strong background in at least one of the following disciplines: hydrology/hydrogeology, geosciences or environmental sciences (with a focus on water), civil or environmental engineering or related natural sciences. Skills in hydrologic modelling of coupled groundwater-surface water systems are mandatory. Experience in numerical codes for the coupled simulation of groundwater-surface water systems (e.g. HydroGeoSphere, OGS, InHM, PARFLOW or similar) as well as skills in the simulation of biogeochemical processes and transport are additional assets.
