The Hydrology group at the University of L … The Hydrology group at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland, is seeking candidates for 2 fully funded Ph.D. positions. Expected start between February-October 2024.</br></br>'''Position 1: Water Transit Times and Water Quality in Catchments (apply: https://shorturl.at/OPT13)'''<br></br>This position aims to improve our understanding of the links between water transit times (see Benettin et al., 2022; https://doi.org/10.1029/2022WR033096) and solute transport in catchments. Possible initial topics for this position include: tracer-based estimation of water transit times in natural landscapes; relationships between water flow and rivers’ water quality; effects of urbanization and climate variability on water transit times. This position involves theoretical/modeling work (40%), data analysis (40%), and fieldwork (water sample collection and analyses for water stable isotopes and major ions, 20%).</br></br>'''Position 2: Ecohydrology (apply: https://shorturl.at/tLNPY)'''<br></br>This position aims to better understand the interactions between water and vegetation (see Fatichi et al. 2015; https://doi.org/10.1002/wat2.1125), especially using tracers like the water stable isotopes (see Penna et al., 2018; https://doi.org/10.5194/bg-15-6399-2018). The initial topic of this position will be understanding how vegetation (in particular grape vines) may use old/deep water stored in the soil during periods of water stress. Examples of additional possible topics include: monitoring and modeling urban vegetation dynamics; modeling water circulation in forested/agricultural landscapes; quantifying water transit times within a tree, from roots to leaves. This position involves data analysis (50%), and then a flexible ratio of modeling and/or fieldwork.</br></br>'''Desired Qualifications'''</br>* Master’s degree in environmental science/engineering, geochemistry, soil physics or closely related disciplines</br>* Some experience with applied mathematics (for example, statistics, differential equations)</br>* Some experience with programming (for example, in Python/R/Matlab)</br>* Some experience with field work and experimental data collection</br>* Enthusiasm for environmental research</br>'''How to apply'''<br></br>Applications are only managed through an institutional platform: Position 1 (https://shorturl.at/OPT13), Position 2 (https://shorturl.at/tLNPY). Deadline: 30.10.2023. Applications to both positions are possible, if duly motivated. For any questions, feel free to contact Paolo Benettin (paolo.benettin@unil.ch).</br></br>The University of Lausanne is committed to equal opportunities and diversity.</br></br></br> </br>Paolo Benettin (he/him)<br></br>Assistant Professor, Institute of Earth Surface Dynamics, UNIL<br></br>Research Associate, Laboratory of Ecohydrology, EPFL<br> UNIL<br>
