Student Assistant (m/f/d)

Student Assistant (m/f/d) for Measurements of Gas Fluxes between the Atmosphere and the Rur Reservoir

Weekly working hours: 6 hours

Start: as soon as possible

Project Content: The project aims to quantify the carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) fluxes from the Rur Reservoir, their impacts on the global carbon cycle and climate change based on direct measurements at the reservoir.

Tasks: The student assistant will support the team from the Geoscientific Institute, Department of Meteorology, and the Environmental Modeling Working Group at the Institute for Crop Science and Resource Conservation. Tasks include preparing the measurement sensors in the form of a floating chamber, planning the measurement campaign logistically, conducting the on-site measurements, and analyzing the collected data.

Requirements:
• Reliability, independent working style, and communication skills
• Interest in field measurements and working in connection with nature
• Interest in English as a working language
• Interest in interdisciplinary work
A driver's license is an advantage

Application: Interested students should send their application with CV and motivation letter by June 15, 2024, to Prof. Dr. Ana Meijide (ameijide@uni-bonn.de) or Junior Prof. Dr. Leonie Esters (lesters@uni-bonn.de).

PhD Researcher
in the field of hydrology and geodesy

100% (E13 TV-L) | All positions are fixed-term, initially until December 31st, 2025, with the possibility of an extension

In project B01, we are looking for a PhD researcher at University of Bonn with knowledge in hydrology and geodesy and Earth system modelling to estimate discharge and water storage change from space to be used in the validation and improvement of model results. Final goal is to study surface water variability and its causes, in particular the impact of natural and human disturbances.
