The appointees will conduct research in the international and interdisciplinary 'SSF Fast and invisible: Conquering Subsurface Stormflow through an Interdisciplinary Multi-site Approach' Research Unit.

One of the PhD positions at the University of Zurich will focus on the spatial and temporal variation in shallow groundwater levels across the study catchments, how these variations depend on soil and landscape characteristics, and how these data can be used in the calibration of hydrological models.

The other PhD position at the University of Zurich will focus on the interception of SSF by roads and tile drains and how this is then quickly routed to the streams. These new measurements of SSF interception will be compared with the responses at the trenches and model simulations.

You will collect field data in three catchments in Germany, analyze the data and present and publish the project results at appropriate academic venues.

You have good data management and analysis skills. Knowledge of R or Python is a benefit.
You have good time management skills and are self-motivated.

Your benefits

You will work in a stimulating and supportive research environment, with ample opportunities for collaboration and exchange and be part of an international and collaborative research project.
You will receive regular mentoring and support in pursuing your academic career
You are part of a structured doctoral program.
You will get paid according to the salary scale of the Swiss National Science Foundation.
You will get a personal workplace with high-quality technical equipment (laptop and screen).

With around 30,000 students and 10,000 employees, UZH is the largest university in Switzerland.
