Offer Description
The GroundedExtremes project is a European funded research project that aims to investigate key processes controlling the development of hydrological extremes and the potential for improved groundwater management as a powerful adaptation strategy to both droughts and floods. In GroundedExtremes six postdoctoral researchers will study and compare groundwater dynamics, management and governance across four case studies: Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Sweden.
At the University of Oslo, we are now searching for a postdoctoral researcher with a groundwater data and statistical/physically-based modelling background to join our team. The postdoc will analyse groundwater level observations and related climate and site-specific data to assess the development, duration and recovery of groundwater droughts, their climate drivers, subsurface characteristics, vegetation and water use, as well as effects of ongoing and future global changes. Focus is on drought, but include situations of high groundwater table/head as groundwater can act as a buffer to both flood and drought. We will analyse and compare groundwater dynamics in the four case studies, with a specific focus on Sweden. Emphasis will be on (compound) drivers of groundwater drought across the case studies, including large-scale climate drivers and local scale characteristics, taking into account the importance of wet extremes in the development and recovery of groundwater drought.
We are looking for a person who is interested in interdisciplinary research and enjoys working collaborative within a diverse international group. Additionally, we are seeking a person who is positive to support the project administration and management and engage in joint project activities. The postdoc will be based at the Section for Geography and Hydrology at the Department of Geosciences and will collaborate closely with the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Gothenburg on the Swedish case study.
