Postdoc opportunity at Utrecht University in multi-risk adaptation pathways for river delta systems . This 2-year postdoctoral project is based in the Faculty of Geosciences, Department of Physical Geography at Utrecht University in the Netherlands . The research focuses on river delta regions facing sea-level rise and extreme hydrological events, with an emphasis on designing robust adaptation pathways for complex multi-sectoral systems. The project builds on the Dynamic Adaptive Pathways Plann...

The University of Edinburgh is offering a PhD opportunity supervised by Professor Lindsay Beevers and Encarni Medina Lopez on future hydrological extremes in a changing climate . The project will quantify how floods and droughts may change under future climate change using the Reference Observatory of Basins for International hydrological climate change detection (ROBIN), a global network of near-natural catchments, together with global multi-model climate projections such as ISIMIP. It will inv...
