Doctoral Student in Plant Water Relations in Urban

vor 2 Wochen


Basel, Schweiz ETH Zürich Vollzeit

The Grassland Sciences Group is a vibrant and international working group at the Department of Environmental Systems Science. We are looking for a reliable, enthusiastic and highly motivated doctoral student with a passion for science to join our team. Our research focuses on the process
- and system understanding of the biosphere-atmosphere greenhouse gas exchange and its drivers in forests and agroecosystems, in response to management and climate.

**Project background**:
The doctoral project is part of an interdisciplinary project on Feedback between vegetation, carbon, energy, and water cycles in the urban environment (_UrbaNature_). Within the framework of Switzerland’s Global Climate Observing System and Global Atmosphere Watch programmes, _UrbaNature_ aims to create new knowledge and develop methodologies for observing and simulating the role of vegetation in carbon, energy, and water cycles in the urban environment. Together with colleagues from the University of Basel, the University of Zurich as well as Empa, four doctoral students will collaborate closely, co-supervised by one other leading scientist from the _UrbaNature_ consortium.

**Job description**:
The doctoral project will focus on urban plant ecophysiology in the cities of Zurich and Basel. In more detail, the tasks include:

- the quantification of in-situ photosynthesis and transpiration of plant functional groups representative of urban environments,
- the identification of hydraulic strategies of urban vegetation during relevant phenological phases using stable water isotopes, and
- the evaluation of plant ecophysiological responses to the urban environment.

You will work together with the other three doctoral students from the University of Basel, the University of Zurich and Empa, who will focus on urban plant modelling, urban climate modelling, and urban vegetation remote sensing, respectively. The full-time position is funded for 4 years. Salary and social benefits are provided according to ETH Zurich rules.

**Your profile**:

- Upon starting, you must have a completed Master’s degree in biology, ecology, or environmental sciences, or a closely related science field with experiences in plant ecophysiology, micrometeorology, and/or biogeochemistry.
- You must have very good statistical skills, experience with fieldwork, and programming experience (e.g. in R or Python).
- A good standard of written and spoken English as well as a driver’s license are mandatory.
- Good writing skills and the ability to work in an interdisciplinary environment are expected.
