From CSDMS
PhD project with focus on geophysical monitoring of groundwater processes
Lund University, , Sweden
Apply before: 11 January 2023


We seek a PhD student for the research project "Blue Transition - How to make my region climate resilient". The project is financed by the EU Interreg North Sea Region and Sweden Water Research. The project team consists of experts in groundwater resources and applied geophysics, and is a collaboration between universities, government agencies, water supply companies, river water councils, etc. The PhD student will work with monitoring of hydrogeological processes in the ground through geoelectrical measurements, in natural ground and in connection with MAR (managed aquifer recharge).


The investigation area will be in the south of Sweden, in particular in the Vomb Trough area and in the Bolmen area. In both areas, a monitoring system will be installed which will run for several years. This will be accompanied with geophysical measurements in adjacent areas, which may include ground based, air- and water-borne geophysical data acquisition. The data should then also be used to develop resp. improve the hydrogeological model. In parallel to the geophysical measurements, also hydrogeological, geochemical and microbiological investigations will be made to provide reference data to interpret the geophysical properties. Furthermore supporting laboratory investigations are conceivable. https://lu.varbi.com/what:job/jobID:572901/?lang=en Please forward to potential candidates
