This post-doctoral project focuses on geomatics and hydromorphology , with an emphasis on improving methods to determine the bankfull level from LiDAR data collected from different sources, including IGN LiDAR HD and drone-acquired data . The researcher will also develop tools for QGIS and continue work on estimating bankfull width along river reaches, with results interpreted in relation to local anthropogenic constraints. The work builds on methods already developed within the Carhyce programm...

This postdoctoral project studies the recent upward shift of the upper forest limit in the Alps and the Pyrenees. The work examines how long-term vegetation history, past land-use change, and the ecological characteristics of colonised sites shape current forest-edge dynamics. The research is organised around two linked scientific goals. First, the project will connect forest-limit trajectories since 1850 with more recent changes detected by remote sensing, with particular attention to the legac...

The Alpine Ecology Laboratory (LECA), a joint research unit of the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), Grenoble Alpes University, and Savoie Mont Blanc University, is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for a project on the recent upslope shift of the treeline in the Alps and the Pyrenees. The project will examine how vegetation history, historical forests, land-use changes, and present-day site conditions have shaped recent changes in the upper forest limit. One research object...

About this position

This postdoctoral position at CNRS is part of the ANR ROCKMAPS project within the Trajectoires laboratory (UMR 8215). The research focuses on the rock art panels of Bedolina in Capo di Ponte, Lombardy, and their role as engraved cartographic representations carved into stone.

The selected researcher will investigate the relationship between the engraved motifs on panels R1, R4, R7, and R9 and their surrounding anthropic and natural environment. The project combines archaeological interpretation with spatial and statistical approaches to examine how the engravings relate to tombs, settlements, rock-art sites, specialized sites, springs, drainage networks, ridgelines, prominent landscape features, and mines across the Val Camonica.

A major part of the work is the creation of a georeferenced database covering archaeological occupations from the Neolithic to the Iron Age and notable natural sites across an area of about 1,500 km². This database will be built from aerial and satellite imagery, remote sensing, and a review of archaeological publications and grey literature.

The research also includes detailed analysis of the Bedolina engravings through 3D recording and surface study, using photogrammetry, stereoscopic scanning, and RTI. The postdoctoral researcher will contribute to typo-chronological study of the panels and their surface states, and will lead archaeological test pits at the foot of two engraved panels to refine chronology and geomorphological history.

The work is embedded in a collaborative network involving researchers from archaeology, geomorphology, geography, and geology, with project partners including UMR 8215 Trajectoires, UMR 6554 LETG, UMR 6118 Géosciences Rennes, EA 4451 CRBC, MAN, Inrap, and the Parco archeologico di Seradina-Bedolina. Fieldwork and data acquisition will take place in Val Camonica, alongside workshops in Paris and Brest and annual project meetings.

This position is clearly centered on interdisciplinary landscape archaeology, combining rock art analysis, spatial databases, remote sensing, 3D documentation, and geostatistics.
