Offer Description

The Institute of Environmental Assessment and Water Research (IDAEA-CSIC) is looking for a postdoctoral researcher to work on collaborative research projects funded by international (PRIMA-2023) and national (TRANSMISIONES-2023) calls. Overall, projects address groundwater related issues (quantity and quality) under the current context of global change, and are focused, among others, on the development of numerical models (catchment and local scales) for predicting (i) the impact of climate change on groundwater resources and (ii) the evolution of inorganic and organic pollutants, assessment of groundwater potential uses considering quality aspects and the development of adaptation solutions to climate change and mitigation strategies against its consequences on water resources.

The candidate must hold a PhD in hydrogeology or related fields.
