PhD position in Soil Biogeochemistry of Proglacial Margins at University of Lausanne University of Lausanne in Switzerland

VAW Glaciology at ETH Zurich is hiring a Doctoral Student in Glaciology and Glacial Hazards for the #ICEFAL project, a Swiss-French collaboration focused on how rising ice temperatures affect the stability of cold hanging glaciers and their potential to trigger large ice avalanches. The project combines field measurements at high-elevation sites in the Swiss and French Alps with numerical modelling to build a data-driven hazard index for hanging glaciers. This is a strong fit for students intere...
