| AIO Milieu-economie en Natuurlijke Hulpbronnen De Wageningen UR Leerstoelgroep Milieu-economie en Natuurlijke Hulpbronnen behorend bij het departement Maatschappijwetenschappen verricht theoretisch en toegepast onderzoek naar oplossingen voor milieuproblemen en het duurzaam gebruik van energie en grondstoffen. Voor het door het Kennis voor Klimaat gefinancierde onderzoekgetiteld "Tools for adaptation strategies" zijn wij op zoek naar een promovendus (m/v). Wageningen UR, Monday 30 August 2010 |
| PhD Knowledge for Climate - Climate proofing Urban Areas (job application has been expired) The objective of this PhD research is to define how natural landscapes help Dutch cities to adapt to the effects of the expected climate change. The research will be carried out within the framework of the Dutch Knowledge for Climate research program. Wageningen University, Thursday 22 July 2010 |
PhD position Economic Freshwater Resource Modeling f/m (job application has been expired) Climate change has important implications for the stock and flows of freshwater resources. A significant share of the Dutch economy depends on the availability of these freshwater resources. The main objective of the PhD study is to develop an integrated economic model to support policy and decision-making towards economically efficient water allocation across different water users and river basins. This project is part of the KfC research program “Tools to support adaptation to climate change”. VU University Amsterdam, Thursday 20 May 2010 |
PhD position Economic Flood Damage Modeling f/m (job application has been expired) How do flood risks impact behavior of firms and households and regional economic development? The approach will be to combine the RAEM E3 CGE-model with modeling approaches based on evolutionary economic concepts such as multi agent modeling to arrive at an integrated model framework for pre-flood and post-flood behavior of economic agents. This project is part of the KfC research program “Tools to support adaptation to climate change”. VU University Amsterdam, Thursday 20 May 2010 |
PhD position Interactive land use planning f/m (job application has been expired) Adaptation and spatial planning have become increasingly interrelated. As a result, land use change plays a central role in the development of adaptation strategies. Within this project the relevant decision processes will be described and tools will be developed to support map related tasks within the negotiation process. This project is part of the KfC research program “Tools to support adaptation to climate change”. VU University Amsterdam, Thursday 20 May 2010 |
| Postdoc Global Land Use Modelling (job application has been expired) For this postdoc project the specific objective is to create a new, innovative, method for land-use modelling at global scale based on a high-resolution representation of land use systems. This conceptual model should potentially benefit multiple integrated assessment models. The researcher will build a new global scale land use model and parameterize this model based on a global level land use systems classification. VU Amsterdam - IVM, Tuesday 4 May 2010 |
| Promovendi Bestuurskunde (vacature is verlopen / job application has been expired) Voor de projecten De Multilevel Governance van Klimaatadaptatie en Multifunctioneel Landgebruik en Klimaatadaptatie, activiteiten van KvK, zoekt Erasmus Universiteit Rotterdam promovendi. U hebt succesvol uw studie Bestuurskunde, Planologie, Sociologie, Politicologie, of een vergelijkbare studie afgerond en u hebt affiniteit met thema’s als klimaatadaptatie, waterveiligheid en ruimtelijke vraagstukken.

| PhD researcher on project Analysis of the behavior of extremes under non-stationary climate (job application has been expired) The PhD researcher is going to work at the Department Climate and Seismology, within the Climate for Knowledge Research Program. The PhD researcher will contribute to statistical modeling and analysis of extreme values in observations and in projections with regional climate models, with an emphasis on extremes in precipitation and temperature. KNMI, Tuesday 20 April 2010 |
| PhD position on uncertainties in global and regional climate projections (job application has been expired) Job opening at the Global Climate Division of the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI): PhD position on uncertainties in global and regional climate projections. The candidate will assess
uncertainties in output from global and regional climate models. KNMI, Thursday 15 April 2010 |
| 3 PhD positions and 2 Post-doc positions in Spatial Economics and Transport Economics (job application has been expired) The Department of Spatial Economics of the VU University Amsterdam is engaged in many economic problems in which space, transport and environment play prominent roles. This Department is looking for candidates for the following vacancies "Spatial economic analysis of land use and multimodal transport in urban areas", "Climate change impacts on transport system reliability, an economic analysis", "Climate change and the reliability of electricity supply systems, an economic analysis" and "Socio-economic effects of flexibility oriented adaptation approaches with respect to climate change".

| PhD position on the framing and governance of climate adaptation (job application has been expired) The Public Administration and Policy Group at Wageningen University offers a position for a 4-year PhD project on “Making sense of climate impacts: understanding and dealing with the variety of climate change frames in governance processes”. The project is part of the broader Knowledge for Climate programme on the governance of climate adaptation carried out by five Dutch and three international universities.
