PhD Position - CO2 transport and storage: Key to the European energy transition

Area of research:Promotion Job description:Your Job:The transformation of the European energy system to greenhouse gas neutrality will promote independence from fossil fuels. However, it raises the question of how to deal with emissions that cannot be avoided for technical or economic reasons. In the future, these must be captured and stored, used as raw materials, or offset by negative emissions. It can be assumed that storage and utilization sites will not be located directly at the source of emissions, which will require transport infrastructure. As part of this work, you will model spatially resolved transformation paths for the energy system in Germany and Europe and analyze the role of CO2 infrastructures in the design of energy infrastructures. Based on the findings of a related doctoral thesis, options for CO2 capture and utilization and options for negative emission will be integrated into the model. In doing so, you will explore various questions, such as: Where do remaining emissions occur and how can they be dealt with? What infrastructure is needed? What is a cost-effective design for this infrastructure and what framework conditions need to be created? To answer these questions, you will perform the following tasks: <ul><li> Identifying relevant technologies for mapping CO2 infrastructure in integrated energy system models </li><li> Enhancing an existing energy system model focusing on CO2 infrastructures </li><li> Analyzing the impact of CO2 on the energy systems design in Germany and Europe </li><li> Active participation in scientific and public discourse (including publishing in peer-reviewed scientific journals) </li></ul> Your Profile:<ul><li> A completed Master`s degree in the field of natural or (industrial) engineering, informatics, or a related field of study </li><li> Very good knowledge of energy technology, energy economics and energy politics </li><li> Initial experience in energy system modeling is advantageous </li><li> Good programming skills (e.g., Python) </li><li> High degree of independence and willingness to show great commitment </li><li> Very reliable and conscientious work style </li><li> Fluent written and spoken English and German </li></ul> Our Offer:We work on highly topical, socially-relevant issues and offer you the opportunity to actively shape change! We offer you optimal conditions for the successful completion of your doctorate: <ul><li> The opportunity to complete a doctoral thesis within 3 years through professional supervision and internal support services </li><li> A highly motivated working group as well as an international and interdisciplinary working environment in one of the largest research institutions in Europe </li><li> Active further development of a comprehensive energy system model in order to support energy policy decision-makers in a scientifically sound manner </li><li> Excellent scientific and technical infrastructure </li><li> Opportunity to participate in (international) conferences and project meetings </li><li> Continuous professional support by your scientific supervisor(s) </li><li> A large research campus in the countryside, which offers the best opportunities for networking with colleagues as well as for a sporty balance besides work </li><li> Best conditions for successful work in a home office (moving to the Aachen-Düsseldorf-Cologne region is not absolutely necessary) </li><li> 30 days of annual leave and provision for days off between public holidays and weekends (e.g. between Christmas and New Year) </li><li> Further development of your personal strengths, e.g. through an extensive range of training courses; a structured program of continuing education and networking opportunities specifically for doctoral researchers via JuDocS, the Jülich Center for Doctoral Researchers and Supervisors: <a href="https://www.fz-juelich.de/en/judocs" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">www.fz-juelich.de/en/judocs</a> </li><li> Targeted services for international employees, e.g. through our International Advisory Service </li></ul> In addition to exciting tasks and a collaborative working atmosphere in Jülich, we have a lot more to offer: <a href="https://go.fzj.de/benefits" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">go.fzj.de/benefits</a> The position is initially for a fixed term of 3 years.

PhD position - Inverse design of microstructures for novel sustainable structural metals

Work group:IAS-9 - Materials Data Science and Informatics Area of research:Promotion Job description:Your Job:Digital methods for inverse materials design are essential to efficiently create new, sustainable and recycling-adapted structural metals.

PhD Position - European energy transition – Modeling and analysis of challenges for successful implementation

Area of research:Promotion Job description:Your Job:The transformation of the European energy system towards greenhouse gas neutrality is fundamentally changing our energy landscape. In the future, wind and solar power plants are expected to provide most of our electricity. Hydrogen and its derivatives are becoming increasingly important - and even during periods of low wind and sun, new, emission-free technologies and strategies are necessary to ensure a stable supply. For the European energy transition to succeed, key infrastructure measures must be implemented in a timely manner. These measures include retrofitting existing power plants and transport networks to other energy sources and expanding new infrastructure. Planners and policymakers face several challenges, including long construction and retrofitting lead times, which can be several years, and requirements for suitable locations, such as availability of cooling water or adequate space. In this thesis, you will systematically evaluate the challenges of the energy transition and derive scenarios and strategies for its successful implementation.

Area of research:Scientific / postdoctoral posts Part-Time Suitability:The position is suitable for part-time employment. Job description:PostDoc for Co-Creation of biodiversity monitoring based on environmental DNA (d/m/w) Background The manifold human interventions in coastal marine ecosystems, such as shipping, the construction of wind turbines, fishing, nutrient input or tourism, are increasingly leading to conflicts between the users of marine resources and nature conservation objectives. These conflicts have recently been exacerbated by the ambitious expansion targets for offshore wind farms (OWF) associated with the energy transition. In this societal context, the project ´CREATE-2´ in the sustainMare research mission of the German Marine Research Alliance (DAM) is developing solution-oriented knowledge for better marine protection, resolving conflicts of interest and the efficient marine monitoring necessary to achieve nature conservation goals. In particular, ´CREATE-2´ pursues three objectives: 1) The co-creation and transfer of non-invasive monitoring strategies to monitor the marine environment, 2) The assessment of the biodiversity and connectivity of marine protected areas (MPAs) in the context of multiple uses, and 3) The co-creation of socially acceptable marine conservation measures and MPAs, associated governance structures and marine education measures. 'CREATE-2' addresses these goals through a transdisciplinary approach in which concrete products are co-developed together with relevant stakeholders and transferred to them. This takes place in the context of three real-world laboratories in the North and Baltic Seas.

PostDoc in physical oceanography (m/f/d)

Area of research:Scientific / postdoctoral posts Job description:PostDoc in physical oceanography (m/f/d) Background Warm Atlantic Water flows northward in the eastern Nordic Seas toward the Arctic Ocean. Along this pathway atmospheric cooling leads to water mass transformation. The Atlantic Water then leaves the surface in Fram Strait between Greenland and Svalbard in a region where the horizontal density gradient at the surface is large. The properties that are set in Fram Strait affect both the mid-depth interior Arctic Ocean and the overflow water forming North Atlantic Deep Water. We have deployed three moorings in a triangle in Fram Strait to resolve submesoscale gradients in this last region of water mass transformation of the Atlantic Water. Here we advertise a Postdoc position at AWI that will analyze this unique mooring data set. A particular focus will be on quantifying the temporal variability from hours to seasons of submesoscale gradients in the surface mixed layer in Fram Strait. Dynamical analyses will reveal the processes participating in the transformation of Atlantic Water. You may participate in shipboard work in Denmark Strait and Fram Strait in 2026 (mooring deployment and recovery). Historical data from those areas may also be analyzed to better quantify the background conditions in which the novel submesoscale resolving observations are embedded. You'll be part of the DFG-AEI collaborative project MIXSED; more details on the position can be found here <a href="http://www.mixsed.uni-hamburg.de/news.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">www.mixsed.uni-hamburg.de/news.html</a>.

PhD Position - Emerging Urban Emissions and their Impact on Atmospheric Composition

Area of research:Promotion Job description:Your Job:Urban aerosol particles pose one of the greatest global risks to human health. A substantial fraction of these particles is secondary – formed through atmospheric reactions of emitted trace gases. While motor vehicle emissions have been reduced through regulation, attention is shifting to understudied sources such as volatile chemical products (VCPs) and cooking emissions, which are now emerging as key precursors to ozone and secondary organic aerosol (SOA) in urban areas. CHANEL aims to identify the key volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that lead to SOA and ozone pollution.
