Our group aims at a process-based understanding of ecohydrological systems in a changing climate by integrating state-of-the-art ecohydrological modelling and data-based analyses. The focus of the advertised position is on model implementation across multiple catchments, assessing and improving model performance using in-situ and satellite-derived data and model analysis aiming at better understanding climate-induced hydrological changes (e.g., linkage between changes in snow cover and evapotranspiration, effects of an increased frequency of warm-dry periods or feedbacks with changes in vegetation). The ideal candidate should be experienced in combining process-based understanding with strong numerical modelling skills.

Scientist Position Ecohydrological Modelling in a Transient Climate
Your tasks
- Process-based ecohydrological modelling in multiple catchments
- Model evaluation with in-situ and satellite-derived data
- Model analyses aiming at quantifying and better understanding climate-induced hydrological changes
- Publication of results in scientific journals
Your profile
- A PhD or equivalent in hydrology, meteorology, geoecology or a related field of environmental science or engineering (or being close to receiving a PhD); in case of an excellent MSc and a good fit of the profile, the position could be adjusted into a 3-year PhD position (65% E13) requiring a Master’s degree in one of the fields mentioned above
- Expert knowledge in the application of numerical models, e.g. for hydrological, land-surface and/or vegetation modelling
- Excellent programming skills (e.g. R, Python or another scripting language; experience with C/C++ is advantageous)
- Experience in model development, multi-criteria calibration and in use of remote sensing data for hydrologic purposes is an asset
- Expertise in working with large data sets, high-performance computing systems and use of version-control systems is advantageous
- A strong publication record in internationally leading journals (commensurate with career stage)
- Strong English language skills both in oral and written communication
- Ability to work independently and in a team environment
