Phd Position Urban Water Balance Under Drought Conditions
3 weken geleden
**PhD Position Urban Water Balance Under Drought Conditions**:
**_Sustainable urban water management: research how drought-resilient cities can be realized in the Netherlands._**
**Job description**:
As droughts become more frequent, many Dutch municipalities struggle to adapt their urban water management strategies. This leads to financial, ecological, and social consequences. A lack of understanding of the urban water balance before and during drought, the impact of evaporation, and unclear responsibilities hinder the transition to a climate-resilient urban environment.
- Setting up and maintaining monitoring networks to quantify urban water fluxes, with a focus on urban green infrastructure.
- Conducting data analysis to better understand water fluxes and evaporation.
- Conceptualizing and modeling the urban water balance before and during drought conditions.
You will closely collaborate with other project members and stakeholders within the Thirsty Cities project. This project aims to develop knowledge, tools, and strategies for a climate-proof and water-sensitive built environment.
More information about the project: Thirsty Cities - NWO
**Job requirements**:
- An MSc degree or equivalent in sanitary engineering, (urban) hydrology, or a related field.
- Affinity with field work.
- Strong analytical skills and experience in data analysis and modeling.
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to work in a team.
- Proficiency in Dutch (required due to close collaboration with Dutch municipalities and industry partners).
Are you passionate about contributing to innovative solutions for urban water management and eager to work in a practice-oriented research environment? Then we encourage you to apply
