to host a total of 70 doctoral students over a period of 12 years. This is a
dedicated programme of the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) that promotes
doctoral research and education at the highest standards and provides
excellent opportunities for cross-disciplinary research. International
networking is facilitated by a mobility programme with a spectrum of
attractive international partner institutions and a comprehensive guest
scientist programme.
Eight PhD student positions are available in the following research themes
related to Water Resource Systems:
. Flood-hydrology
. Regional nutrient management
. Aquatic microbiology
. Soil moisture remote sensing
. Diffuse water pollution
. Mechanics of structures
. Socio-hydrology and environmental economics
. Micro-meteorology
Applicants for the PhD student positions must have a Master's degree (or
equivalent) in a discipline related to water resource systems. The working
language of the programme is English. Students are expected to work across
disciplines and in cooperation with others. A capacity and willingness to
integrate and collaborate is essential.
The Programme provides a salary according to the FWF scheme, together with a
significant allowance for travel and research support. TU Wien is an equal
opportunities employer. The contracts will be for three years and extension
to a fourth year is possible. The preferred starting date is Oct. 1, 2012.
Candidates should send a letter of application, a statement of research
interests, copies of education certificates and a Curriculum Vitae to
office@waterresources.at (pdf format), or as a hard copy to The Centre of
Water Resource Systems, c/o Dr. Gemma Carr, Vienna University of Technology,
Karlsplatz 13/222-2, A-1040 Vienna, Austria. Please quote reference:
DK-WRS.
Application deadline is April 30, 2012. Short listed candidates will be
invited to a selection seminar. Financial support towards travel expenses is
available on request.

Halley Professorship of Physics
UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD in association with Jesus College
Start date: 1 October 2012 or as soon as possible thereafter.
The Halley Professorship of Physics was established in 1991 as an
upgrade of the long-standing statutory Readership in Atmospheric Physics
and was renamed the Halley Professorship in 2000. The post has a history
stretching back continuously to G M B Dobson (discoverer of the Earth's
ozone layer) in the 1920s. The person appointed will be an exceptional
physicist with an international reputation in one or more areas of
atmospheric, oceanic, climate and planetary physics and an outstanding
research and publication record. He/she will exercise leadership in
research and teaching, will be keen to interact with members of
Atmospheric, Oceanic and Planetary Physics (AOPP) and other groups
within the department and the University, and will play a strategic role
in advancing further the research portfolio of AOPP in Oxford. AOPP at
Oxford has grown significantly in recent years and has consolidated its
reputation in a range of research areas, including atmospheric and
oceanic observations of the Earth and other solar system planets; remote
sensing instrumentation and data analysis; numerical modelling of the
Earth's climate system and of the climate of other planets; physical
oceanography, climate dynamics and geophysical fluid dynamics.
Please see the further particulars at
<http://www.ox.ac.uk/about_the_university/jobs/fp/> for more details
about the post and for full instructions before making an application.
Applications, including a covering letter and full CV, and naming three
referees should be received no later than 30 April 2012 by Dr Gwen
Booth, Personnel Officer, Senior Appointments at
<professorships@admin.ox.ac.uk>. If you have a query about how to apply,
please contact Mrs Elaine Eastgate at <professorships@admin.ox.ac.uk> or
telephone: 01865 280189.
Applications are particularly welcome from women and black and minority
ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in academic posts in Oxford.
