Offer Description
DRYvER is an EU H2020 project that aims at investigation how biodiversity, ecosystem functions, ecosystem services and their values in drying river networks are directly and indirectly altered by climate change through empirical and modelling work at relevant spatial and temporal scales. Furthermore, DRYvER will provide knowledge-based strategies and tools for cost-effective adaptive management of drying river networks in the EU and worldwide. The whole project is focused at the network scale, considering 6 cases studies in the EU (plus 3 more in South America) and results obtained will be used to derive patterns at the EU scale. The University of Barcelona is in charge of developing a prioritisation mapping tool for decision-making at network scale based on data obtained across the whole project (biodiversity, ecosystem processes, and ecosystem services), and considering current and future drying patterns. This job will consist of generating base data to develop the prioritisation mapping tool, by developing an optimisation algorithm that help to prioritise the spatial allocation of mitigation and adaptation measures, including Nature Based Solutions, to help to reduce the impact of climate change on biodiversity, ecosystem processes and ecosystem services.
