Aquatic Physics Research Opportunity

This research position is part of an exciting project at Eawag focused on advancing our understanding of lake dynamics and their ecological implications. We are seeking a highly motivated candidate with a master's degree in a relevant field, such as physics, physical oceanography, or environmental science. The successful candidate will work in the Aquatic Physics group led by Damien Bouffard at Eawag Kastanienbaum (Luzern).

Key responsibilities include integrating high-tech in-situ experiments with modeling techniques, focusing on understanding interbasin exchange rates, associated turbulent mixing, and the impact of winter exchanges on deep-water formation and ventilation. The multi-basin Lake Lucerne and Lake Zug are proposed as ideal natural laboratories for this project. Strong English communication skills and the ability to work effectively in teams are essential qualities we are looking for.

Requirements
  • Master's degree in a relevant field
  • Strong English communication skills
  • Ability to work effectively in teams

Application Process
  • Submit an application letter describing your interests and their relevance to this position
