********************************************************************************************************************************************
Niedersachsen Institutes of Technology (NTH) offer 9 PhD positions in the frame of "GeoFluxes" Graduate School.
The focus of the program is Georesources: The Role of Fluid Exchange
in Earth and Environmental Sciences.
The graduate school GeoFluxes explores the role of fluid exchange in
Earth and Environmental Systems, with particular attention to
Georesources and is devoted to promote the research of NTH in the
field of Geosciences. The graduate school benefits from the expertise
at NTH and at the Geozentrum Hannover, Germany. The research and the
teaching will focus on the formation and evolution of Georesources and
is best suited to complement the well-established applied research
field in Geosciences and to develop a transformative research
direction, from fundamental to applied Geosciences. GeoFluxes will
focus on the formation and evolution of the major Georesources Soils
and Metals and has the potential to integrate scientific excellence
across traditional disciplines within the Earth Sciences. GeoFluxes
associates abiotic processes occurring at depth (metal deposits,
active faults) with biogeochemical and physical processes occurring at
the critical zones of the Earth (e.g., organic material and metal
transfer in soils, landscape evolution).
GeoFluxes covers the most challenging and
emerging fields of research worldwide: it focuses on the critical
zones located close to the Earth surface where anthropogenic and
global changes will have particular socio-economic consequences in the
future. For further details and application procedure see attachment

Employment requirements
University degree (Diploma, Master or equivalent) in natural sciences,
preferentially geo- or related sciences, personal and social skills
