Einführung
The Helmholtz Centre Potsdam - GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher to work on the co-evolution of life and landforms using coupled numerical models. The research will focus on interpreting genetic and taxonomic data from hyper-arid regions, studying the impact of tectonic regimes on biodiversity distribution, and exploring the links between vegetation, river discharge, and erosion patterns in dry climate environments. The position offers the opportunity to collaborate with a diverse research team and support a PhD student at the University of Cologne. The role includes developing and using numerical models to investigate Earth's surface processes driven by tectonic activities and climate changes.
Aufgaben
- Use coupled numerical models of life and landscape evolution to interpret (phylo-)genetic and taxonomic data from hyper-arid regions
- Test whether the tectonic regime affects the distribution of biodiversity across a plateau margin
- Quantify the potential links between vegetation, river discharge, and erosion patterns in a dry climate environment
- Interact with other members of the Earth Surface Process Modeling Section at weekly group meetings and in other informal ways
Voraussetzungen
- Demonstrable knowledge in biogeography or in the use and interpretation of (phylo-)genetic and taxonomic data
- Creativity and critical thinking skills
- Ability to publish original and innovative publications
Benefits
- Support with finding a good work-life balance
- Workplace within walking distance of main train station
- Salary group 13 in 'TVöD Bund (Tarifgebiet Ost)' based on Collective Wage Agreement and personal qualifications
