The Institute of Environmental Assessment and Water Research (IDAEA-CSIC) is offering a two-year postdoctoral contract to work on the ERC funded project KARST (ERC, KARST, 101071836), aimed to establish novel tools to model groundwater flow and solute transport in karst systems at multiple scales based on strong physical principles using a combination of field, laboratory, and numerical experiments.

The selected person will be working on characterizing and quantifying conduit scale water flow and solute transport to achieve a new fundamental understanding of these processes, among other tasks.

Candidates must hold a Ph.D. in engineering, computational science, physics, applied mathematics, geophysics, earth science, or a related field; and experience in fluid mechanics (experimental/numerical), programming (Python/C++), and manipulating and analyzing large data sets.

Working conditions

Contract duration: 2 years
Estimated annual gross salary: 40.000€
