Job description

We are looking for a postdoc in the field of permafrost hydrology modeling to join our team at the European Centre for Geoscience and Environmental Research (CEREGE) in Aix-en-Provence, France.

It is a 2-year postdoc funded by my current research project. It should focus on reconstructing the ground thermo-hydrological regime of Tibetan catchments to understand how climate change induced ground warming may affect the water cycle in Tibet and contribute to the observed lake level variations. It is expected to start between September and November 2024 and will involve collaboration with China, the Netherlands and Norway.
