I have a new opening for a PhD student wit … I have a new opening for a PhD student within the project “Flood Seasons: Impact of seasonality shifts of flooding and ice on river dynamics,” where we aim to assess how current and future changes in the flooding and ice regime in Nordic rivers impact streambank erosion and channel morphology. In order to understand how climate change will affect ice-related bank erosion and sediment transport, this project will combine various methods, including environmental seismology, river-ice modelling, evaluating historical hydrological and ice cover data, and field work to examine ice- versus flood-induced bank erosion.</br></br> </br>The position is in Lina Polvi’s fluvial geomorphology research group at the Department of Ecology & Environmental Science at Umeå University in the vibrant town of Umeå (64° N) in northern Sweden that has a large international community, is close to lots of outdoor activities (especially great winter sports!), and is a cultural hub of northern Sweden. PhD students in Sweden are considered employees with a contract and get a full salary for 4- 4.5 years (depending on additional teaching), benefits, paid vacation, and all other social benefits provided in Sweden (e.g., medical care, parental leave, etc.). The PhD student will be co-supervised by Dr. Eliisa Lotsari (Aalto University, Finland) with potential research exchanges to Finland.</br> </br>We are seeking motivated applicants interested in examining the bi-directional effects of ice dynamics on fluvial geomorphic processes. The candidate should have a MS in geomorphology, physical geography, geology, or similar field and should ideally have experience with field work in rivers and/or in cold conditions and experience with any of the following is a strong merit: hydraulic modelling, hydrological analyses, or environmental seismology. The successful applicant should further have a good ability to write and speak English, strong quantitative skills, creativity, power of initiative, independence, good interpersonal skills and the ability to collaborate.</br></br>The application deadline is 13 September 2024. The start date is flexible during the Fall 2024.
