Sweden:PhD Researcher Sand Transport Beneath Broken Waves in Surf Zone

Posted: 30 Nov 2012 11:20 AM PST

The PhD position is embedded in the project 'Sand transport beneath broken waves in the surf zone' funded by the Dutch Technology Foundation STW. You will focus on the role of turbulence generated by wave breaking on sand suspension and subsequent transport. During wave breaking, surface-generated turbulent eddies are injected into the water column that, when they reach the sea bed, forcefully lift sand into the water column. ...Read More


Sweden:PhD Peat Evolution in a Holocene Delta

Posted: 30 Nov 2012 11:03 AM PST

Deltas are complex sedimentary environments. In peaty deltas, biological and sedimentary processes interact. With sea-level rise added, this creates a heterogeneous shallow substrate. The densely populated Netherlands provide a fine example of a complex peaty delta, facing a challenge of land subsidence and interrelated soil and water management, but on which an exceptional large amount of data and knowledge is collected. To a ...Read More


Sweden:PhD Researcher In-situ Spectroscopy of Photoelectrodes for Solar Fuel Production

Posted: 30 Nov 2012 10:30 AM PST

The photochemical conversion of solar energy into chemical fuels is currently one of the most topical research areas due to its potential contribution to the future energy supply of our society. This technology strongly relies on the development of efficient, stable, inexpensive and environmentally friendly catalysts to convert sunlight, water and CO2 into carbon-neutral liquid fuels. Metal oxide based semiconductors are amon ...Read More


Sweden:PhD researcher in the field of resource supply-demand modeling

Posted: 30 Nov 2012 10:13 AM PST

The research focuses on the construction of simulation models of the demand and supply of crucial resources, notably food, water, energy, materials and the interactions between them. The models build upon existing work and are related to ongoing activities on integrated assessment modeling of Global Change at PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency and Utrecht University (http://themasites.pbl.nl/en/themasites/image/in ...Read More


Sweden:2 PhD student-Postdoc positions Dispersal Ecology

Posted: 30 Nov 2012 09:03 AM PST

We are looking for two young researchers to extend the group's research line on plant dispersal. These two new researchers will work in the research program of Dr. Merel Soons on a project supported by her NWO VIDI grant 'Flying, floating or hitching a ride: the dispersal of plants in heterogeneous landscapes'. The goal of this project is to unravel the ecological and physical mechanisms of seed dispersal in realistic, hetero ...Read More
