Assistant professor quantitative modelling of human interactions with water systems (0.8 – 1.0 FTE) |

Job description |

Imminent and future climate change and socio-economic development have profound impacts on the global water cycle. This, in turn, leads to major challenges for mankind, such as increases in droughts and water scarcity and related threats to ecosystems and food and energy supply. Such severe impacts may be further exacerbated by geopolitical developments and conflicts. As humans are an integral part of the water cycle, it is imperative that we include the human dimension and interactions in future pathways of water systems and when searching for effective management strategies and solution options to mitigate detrimental impacts on water systems. |
