**Your job**: **Position 1: Poetics of Eco-violence**: This subproject will contribute to recent scholarship on eco-poetics by exploring the aesthetic, political, and affective affordances of literature, specifically poetry, for representing eco-violence, past and ongoing. Special attention will be paid to how contemporary poets are reimagining genres and...

**Your job**: Many of the standard equations in mathematical physics are based on the fundamental assumption that matter is continuous. In this project, we will revisit such equations by dropping this continuum assumption. We will consider spatial networks - random graph-like structures that permeate space - as the basis and attempt to describe commonly used...

How many Wadden Islands will still exist in 2100? The answer to this question depends not only on sea-level rise scenarios, but also on our ability to design clever adaptation strategies that can prolong the lifetime of barrier islands such as the Wadden Islands. Many examples exist of successful coastal adaptation to sea-level rise, but it is not yet clear...

Intensive livestock farms are hotspots for zoonotic pathogens, posing risks to both human and animal health worldwide. To enhance disease prevention and control, it is essential to uncover airborne spread of zoonotic bacteria and viruses between livestock farms and their surroundings. Therefore we need to advance technologies in air sampling approaches,...
