to join us in Water, Energy and Environmental Engineering Research Unit at Faculty of Technology. DigiPeat project develops digital tools for peatland restoration monitoring that will support digital and green transition in restoration actions. By digitalizing processes and changes spatially and temporally, we assess and project the effects of peatland restoration on topography, vegetation, hydrology, and biogeochemistry. The project participates in documenting the first national intensive peatland restoration monitoring site with high spatio-temporal resolution. Digitalization will increase the acceptability and efficiency of peatland restoration and help to improve the peatland restoration success estimates. DigiPeat is Kvantum-institute Spearhead-project and is done together with Geography Research Unit.
Postdoctoral researcher task description The postdoctoral researcher will (1) use high-resolution hydrological and aquatic biogeochemistry monitoring data to evaluate peatland restoration impact, (2) Improve hydrological and biogeochemical modelling in peatland restoration cases, (3) Improve restoration success estimates for hydrological function and leaching in restored peatlands, and (4) make a synthesis on how high-resolution digital tools to can improve monitor of peatland functioning.
These work tasks will primarily focus on data processing and analysis, numerical modelling and written reporting of the work, but there can be some fieldwork related to high-frequency data collection and background data collection for numerical modelling purposes. There is a possibility for a research visit hosted by our collaborators in Germany or Scotland.
