PhD in Experimental Soil Hydrogeochemistry University of Lausanne in Switzerland

UNIL (University of Lausanne) is advertising a fully funded PhD position in Experimental Soil Hydrogeochemistry within the Hydrology group at the Institute of Earth Surface Dynamics (IDYST) . The project is supervised by Prof. Paolo Benettin and is based at the Lausanne Mouline (Géopolis building) campus in Switzerland. The research focuses on how vegetation regulates soil water fluxes and geochemical reactions , especially during dry periods and drought. The PhD candidate will work at the UNIL ...

Postdoc opportunity at Utrecht University in ocean acidification and the marine phosphorus cycle. The project, PHOSFLUX, is an NWO-funded collaboration between Utrecht University and NIOZ that investigates how ocean acidification may alter CaCO3 fluxes, phosphorus cycling, ocean fertility, and CO2 uptake. The postdoctoral researcher will focus on biogeochemical modelling and develop a reactive-transport model for phosphorus dynamics in sinking and deposited marine snow. The work includes process...

UNIS (University Centre in Svalbard) is advertising a PhD position in Arctic Water Quality Change as a consequence of Permafrost Thaw in Longyearbyen, Svalbard. The project uses Svalbard as a natural laboratory to study how climate-driven permafrost degradation exposes pyrite-rich shales, leading to oxidation processes that can release sulphuric acid, nutrients, trace metals such as manganese and iron, mercury, and other solutes into surface waters. The research combines geochemistry , environme...

University College Dublin is advertising a Post-doctoral Research Fellow Level 1 in the School of Earth Sciences for a fixed term from 1 November 2026 to 28 February 2027 (4 months). The project is part of the Research Ireland Centre for Applied Geosciences (iCRAG) and focuses on understanding the geological processes responsible for the formation and distribution of cobalt mineralisation in the Central African Copperbelt , a major source of cobalt and copper. This is a postdoctoral opportunity,...

Open postdoctoral position in Lyon at the Laboratoire de Géologie (LGL-TPE), École normale supérieure de Lyon , France. The project is centered on inverse modeling for source-to-sink reconstructions using geochemical and mineralogy data. The research topic addresses millennial-scale changes in the Patagonian ice-sheet inputs (rivers, dust) to South Atlantic sediments , within the French ANR EXODUST project. This is a postdoc opening , not a PhD or master's call. The post does not specify salary,...
