Phd Position On The Human Dimensions of

River deltas have been growing for thousands of years, but their future is uncertain. Internal geomorphological feedbacks may push deltas past a tipping point, leading to rapid land loss. This project aims to quantify the life expectancies of global deltas. We offer two positions — a PhD on Holocene delta modelling and a PhD or postdoc on human impact —...

**Your job**: While considerable experience has been gained in geological carbon storage, large-scale hydrogen storage presents unique challenges. Hydrogen’s properties, such as low density, low viscosity, and high diffusion coefficient, make it highly mobile and prone to escaping from geological structures. Additionally, the cyclic nature of hydrogen...

This PhD position is part of a larger interlinked PhD programme that is set up as a cooperation between four universities in the Netherlands (RUG, TUD, TU/e and UU), RWE and TNO.

**Work Activities**: The _Photonic Forces _group at AMOLF is looking for a PhD student to join our team working on nanomechanical systems in the quantum regime. Our group is fascinated by the ability of light to measure and control mechanical motion in new and powerful ways. In a new project, in collaboration with multiple European partners, we seek to...

The immune system helps plants resist pathogen infections and has been well studied. However, it becomes increasingly clear that enhancing defense comes at a cost, as plants slow down growth even if the infection is successfully combatted. In this project, you will investigate the poorly understood process of how plants control their growth during and after...
