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?

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions is essential to limiting future climate change, with renewable energy systems playing a pivotal role in transitioning away from fossil fuels. Wind turbines, solar photovoltaics and hydropower form the backbone of low-emission (“green”) electricity generation. However, these technologies are inherently dependent on weather conditions, which are likely to be influenced by climate change. The PhD position is aimed at investigating the effects of future climate change on renewable energy production.

This Southern Ocean covers nearly 10% of the world’s total ocean space. It is a habitat for over 10,000 known marine species. Politically, it is special in that the majority of the space represents Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction (ABNJ). This means that much of the Southern Ocean is, theoretically, open to all nations and has no national-level governance. The region is currently governed through the international Antarctic Treaty System (ATS), with the Southern Ocean under the remit of the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR). Today, Antarctica and its surrounding waters are experiencing an increasing intensity of commercial, scientific, and political developments. The Southern Ocean is no longer a remote region (if it ever was). Scientists, fishers, and tourists travel to Antarctica and its surrounding waters to explore it, and also, in some cases, to exploit it.<br/> <br/> At the same time, the Southern Ocean, which plays a key role in regulating our climate through ocean currents, sea ice, and its ability to absorb heat and&nbsp;CO2 from the atmosphere, is undergoing climate-related changes. It is not beyond the reach of human-induced changes to our planet. In recent decades, environmental changes such as rising atmospheric and oceanic temperatures, reduced sea ice extent, ice shelf thinning, glacier retreat, and increasing ocean acidification have been observed. Record values have been reported, such as in February 2023, when the lowest sea ice extent since satellite observations began in 1979 was recorded at just 2.01 million km. These environmental changes are having profound biological effects, including changes in primary production, community composition, and poleward shifts of species. Species that are endemic to the high southern latitudes and specially adapted to cold conditions are particularly vulnerable, as their habitats with optimal environmental conditions become increasingly scarce. All in all, these ongoing changes highlight the urgent need to rethink the management of this unique region, ensuring that it remains resilient in the face of both human pressures and climate change.<br/> <br/> We invite applications for four positions, under the umbrella topic “The dilemma of the Southern Ocean: Ecosystems, sustainability and competing interests at the edge of the world" covering natural and social science perspectives, that will cohere around the ‘dilemma’ facing the Southern Ocean: how competing interests impact its governance, but also drive the need for greater science to understand its changes.<br/> <br/> Postdocs in the cohort will undertake independent projects in collaboration with a Principal Investigator (PI) and relevant staff, while also meeting as a unit to work together on joint goals related to the overarching research topic. The Southern Ocean focus is well supported by a recent Antarctic Strategy at the Alfred Wegener Institute and its long-term investment in polar science, as well as its engagement in providing the best available science to policymakers in CCAMLR.<br/> <br/>The HIPP&nbsp;(HIFMB Integrative Postdoc Pool) is also designed to allow networking between (marine) institutions. We therefore offer the possibility for candidates to foster external relationships, or in consultation, to bring in additional advisors from institutions outside of HIFMB. HIFMB continues to strive for transformation and to bridge the science-policy interface. Therefore, experience or interest in transfer activities is a plus.<br/> <br/> Project #1: Geopolitical dilemmas for management: transfer of governance&nbsp;for the Southern Ocean<br/><br/> The Southern Ocean is both remote and connected: an international body of water that sits under the remit of the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) and the countries party to it, who manage its use through best available science. Yet as use intensifies, a number of governance challenges arise for its protection, shaped not only by the changing physical state of the planet, but also by its ever-changing geopolitical shape. Whilst there is ample research on the geopolitics of the Antarctic region, including the Southern Ocean, and ample research on its changing environmental state, this project aims to combine the two in exploring the political challenges, impacts, and possibilities that underscore environmental governance decision-making, to work towards best available social science for understanding the dilemmas for management and how they may be overcome.<br/><br/><br/>Your Tasks<br/>This project works at the interface of the three other projects in the HIPP 2026 cohort, reflecting on the geopolitical challenges of realizing management measures (existing and exploratory), and working to investigate optimal modes of transfer to relevant policy realms (including but not limited to CCAMLR). The project will ask questions, to be defined by the post holder, but which may include:<br/><ul><li>What (geo)political histories shape the dynamics of policy-making, as related to each cohort project?</li><li>What governance mechanisms currently exist and how functional are they (or the concept of them)?</li><li>What are the alternatives to dominant modes of managing the Southern Ocean and ensuring sustainable use aside from those currently deployed or planned? What science might be needed for them (over what time frames, with what resources)?</li><li>How might science be best transferred (via what mechanisms, forums, approaches)?</li></ul> <br/><br/> You’ll be working in the Southern Ocean Conservation and Governance Group, as well as the Transfer Office of HIFMB, in connection with the Environmental Policy at AWI. The post offers membership to the HIPP cohort and wider HIFMB postgraduate community, and the candidate will liaise between the Working Groups relevant to the position, for example, Marine Governance, Ocean Acoustics, and Ecophysiology of Pelagic Key Species.<br/> <br/> Further details:<br/> As a Helmholtz Institute, the HIFMB contributes to one of the Helmholtz Research Programs (currently ‘Changing Earth – Sustaining our Future’) as part of a particular topic (6, Marine and Polar Life). The cohort work will directly contribute to the scope and challenges of topic 6 by researching how marine ecosystems will adapt and respond to human impacts (e.g., fishing, tourism), and by assessing options to remedy and mitigate human impacts.<br/> <br/> Within topic 6, this cohort work attends especially to subtopic 6.1, which is central to the HIFMB mission on "Future Ecosystem Functionality," and subtopic 6.4, "Use and Misuse of the Ocean." Within subtopic 6.1, it aims to work towards the central goal of understanding biodiversity change and its human impacts and effects, while investigating new and evaluating existing concepts for marine conservation and marine governance. Additionally, the emission of anthropogenic noise places significant additional pressure on the Antarctic ecosystem. The work of the cohort contributes towards deliverables aimed at improving projection capabilities of future marine biodiversity and its role in maintaining key ecosystem functions such as productivity and strategies for sustainable management of selected marine ecosystems.<br/><br/><br/>Your Profile<br/><ul><li>PhD in a social or political science discipline (i.e., IR, Political Science, Planning, Human Geography, Sociology, Political Ecology, Law) or in a natural science discipline where explicit and considerable interdisciplinary experience has been gained (i.e., Ecology, Biology, Oceanography)</li><li>Strong skills and evidenced experience in textual analysis (i.e., policy or discourse analysis)</li><li>Knowledge of the marine social sciences</li><li>Highly motivated and eager to work in an interdisciplinary marine research context</li><li>Excellent communication and teamwork skills, with the ability to collaborate effectively across disciplines.</li><li>Very good English knowledge (approximately equivalent to CEFR level C1)</li><li>A background in Antarctic research is a plus, though not required</li></ul><span><br/></span><br/><br/>Further Information<br/>The AWI is characterized by<br/><br/>The AWI is characterized by<br/><ul><li>our scientific success - excellent research</li><li> collaboration and cooperation - intra-institute, national and international, interdisciplinary</li><li> opportunities to develop – on the job and towards other positions</li><li>an international environment – everyday contact with people from all over the world</li><li>flexible working hours&nbsp;</li><li>health promotion and company fitness</li><li> support services and a culture of reconciling work and family</li><li>occupational pension provision (VBL)</li></ul><span><br/></span><br/><br/><span>AWI values diversity and actively promotes gender parity, as well as an open, inclusive environment that provides equal opportunities.

Record values have been reported, such as in February 2023, when the lowest sea ice extent since satellite observations began in 1979 was recorded at just 2.01 million km. These environmental changes are having profound biological effects, including changes in primary production, community composition, and poleward shifts of species. Species that are endemic to the high southern latitudes and specially adapted to cold conditions are particularly vulnerable, as their habitats with optimal environmental conditions become increasingly scarce. All in all, these ongoing changes highlight the urgent need to rethink the management of this unique region, ensuring that it remains resilient in the face of both human pressures and climate change.<br/><br/>We invite applications for four positions, under the umbrella topic “The dilemma of the Southern Ocean: Ecosystems, sustainability and competing interests at the edge of the world" covering natural and social science perspectives, that will cohere around the ‘dilemma’ facing the Southern Ocean: how competing interests impact its governance, but also drive the need for greater science to understand its changes.<br/><br/>Postdocs in the cohort will undertake independent projects in collaboration with a Principal Investigator (PI) and relevant staff, while also meeting as a unit to work together on joint goals related to the overarching research topic. The Southern Ocean focus is well supported by a recent Antarctic Strategy at the Alfred Wegener Institute and its long-term investment in polar science, as well as its engagement in providing the best available science to policymakers in CCAMLR.<br/><br/>The HIPP (HIFMB Integrative Postdoc Pool) is also designed to allow networking between (marine) institutions. We therefore offer the possibility for candidates to foster external relationships, or in consultation, to bring in additional advisors from institutions outside of HIFMB. HIFMB continues to strive for transformation and to bridge the science-policy interface. Therefore, experience or interest in transfer activities is a plus.<br/> <br/> Project #2: Sustaining the keystone: Rethinking Antarctic krill fishery management under climate change<br/> Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is a keystone species in the Southern Ocean ecosystem, essential for the survival of many species’ that depend on it. This ecologically critical species is also the target species of the largest and fastest growing fishery in the Southern Ocean, regulated by CCAMLR. CCAMLR&nbsp;aims to manage this fishery sustainably, relying on ecosystem-based approaches incorporating data on predator population, ecosystem state, and krill biomass and distribution. The krill fishery is concentrated in the southwest Atlantic Sector of the Southern Ocean (CCAMLR Area 48), a krill hotspot that supports many krill-dependent air-breathing predators, including penguins, seals, and baleen whales. Simultaneously, this region is experiencing rapid warming and ecological shifts, including in krill biomass. In Subarea 48.1, at the Antarctic Peninsula, krill fishery catches have risen steadily, with the annual allowable catch limit reached 10 times in the past 13 years, intensifying fishing pressure in neighbouring Subareas, such as 48.2 (South Orkney Islands). A critical development occurred during the October 2024 CCAMLR meeting: the expiration of Conservation Measure (CM) 51-07, which previously mandated that the maximum annual allowable catch of 620.000 t be spatially distributed among Subareas 48.1 to 48.4. With no consensus among member states to renew this measure, the fishery now has unrestricted spatial allocation within area 48, heightening concerns over localised overexploitation.<br/><br/><br/>Your Tasks<br/>This project will investigate krill fishing activities before and after the expiration of conservation measure 51-07 in CCAMLR fishing area 48 in conjunction with existing conservation measures, including those implemented by the fishing industry voluntarily. In addition, the project requires addressing and answering key questions regarding krill fishery management, such as:<br/><ul><li>Does the current management concept adequately address&nbsp;the emerging challenges posed by climate change and a fast-growing fishery?</li><li>How can the management concept be improved, potentially by learning from&nbsp;management concepts of other global fishries?</li><li>How can an improved management concept be effectively implemented in CCAMLR?</li></ul><br/><br/> You’ll be working in the Southern Ocean Conservation and Governance Group.

This Southern Ocean covers nearly 10% of the world’s total ocean space. It is a habitat for over 10,000 known marine species. Politically, it is special in that the majority of the space represents Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction (ABNJ). This means that much of the Southern Ocean is, theoretically, open to all nations and has no national-level governance. The region is currently governed through the international Antarctic Treaty System (ATS), with the Southern Ocean under the remit of the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR). Today, Antarctica and its surrounding waters are experiencing an increasing intensity of commercial, scientific, and political developments. The Southern Ocean is no longer a remote region (if it ever was). Scientists, fishers, and tourists travel to Antarctica and its surrounding waters to explore it, and also, in some cases, to exploit it.<br/><br/>At the same time, the Southern Ocean, which plays a key role in regulating our climate through ocean currents, sea ice, and its ability to absorb heat and CO2 from the atmosphere, is undergoing climate-related changes. It is not beyond the reach of human-induced changes to our planet. In recent decades, environmental changes such as rising atmospheric and oceanic temperatures, reduced sea ice extent, ice shelf thinning, glacier retreat, and increasing ocean acidification have been observed.

This goal, recently incorporated into the post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework of the Convention on Biological Diversity, underscores the urgent need for enhanced ocean conservation. Aligned with these global efforts, the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) has a long-standing commitment to conserving Antarctic marine life by establishing a representative system of marine protected areas (MPAs) around Antarctica. To date, CCAMLR has successfully designated two MPAs: one near the South Orkney Islands and another in the Ross Sea. However, consensus on four additional proposed MPAs has remained elusive, primarily due to (geo)political disagreements among member states, particularly concerning the balance between conservation priorities and economic interests. In this challenging context, the scientific community must continue to generate robust data and disseminate reliable results. Science-based decision-making is key to overcoming political obstacles and advancing MPA proposals that will secure the long-term protection of the Southern Ocean in a rapidly changing world.<br/><br/><br/>Your Tasks<br/><span></span>This project requires addressing and answering key research questions regarding the current status of the Southern Ocean, expected ecosystem changes, and their implications for systematic conservation planning.

Moreover, tourist fleet shipping routes, destinations, and vessel movement strategies are laid out to include encounters with Antarctic wildlife, as these often form a crucial part of the Antarctic tourist experience. The International Association of Antarctica Tour Operators (IAATO) is an organization of virtually all the commercial tour operators to the Antarctic. IAATO has established guidelines for tourist landings on the Antarctic mainland and ships encountering marine life in the ocean. But still, IAATO is self-regulatory, and adherence to these guidelines is voluntary. Currently, there are no boundaries to Antarctic tourism. Antarctic waters form crucial habitats for many marine mammal species, some of which undertake long-distance migrations to exploit Antarctic prey patches, synchronizing their arrival with conspecifics to optimize collective foraging strategies. Other species rely on ice-covered Antarctic waters for breeding, thereby timing the rearing of young to the availability of specific sea-ice habitats as a birthing and lactating platform. The success of these strategies critically relies on the timing of behavior to match the narrow summer season window during which the environmental conditions meet the critical seasonal- and species-specific habitat requirements for foraging and breeding. This, along with the vital role that underwater sound plays for these species in coordinating behavior and navigating dark and under-ice habitats, reveals the enormous impact potential of increased human presence in Antarctic waters. Particularly given the crucial temporal overlap in habitat function and usage during the narrow summer season window, with the timing of increased human presence in the area.<br/><br/><br/>Your Tasks<br/>This project focuses on mapping spatio-temporal overlaps in the presence of both human and marine mammal activities. By using sighting data and ship positional data, as well as passive acoustic recordings, the project will provide an overview of how hotspots in human and marine mammal presence are distributed in affected areas. Acoustic ship models will furthermore help to understand and gauge the acoustic footprint of ships in various types of Antarctic habitats as well as their cumulative impact on seasonal soundscapes and their cumulative impact on the local underwater noise budgets of human hotspots. In addition, the project seeks to place human presence in the broader context of the drastic effects of climate-induced changes and address questions related to improving management, such as:<br/><ul><li>How can vulnerable areas best be monitored? Can local noise budgets be accounted? What are the potential designs of effective monitoring setups?</li><li>Can operators and tourists be sensitized to the impact of their presence, and how can knowledge contribute to modes of management and self-management?</li><li>What measures may improve the sustainability of Antarctic tourism, if at all?</li></ul> <br/><br/> You’ll be working in the Southern Ocean Conservation and Governance Group.

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. Using existing ICE-2 energy system models, you will address questions such as: How do installation and retrofitting times impact the restructuring of energy infrastructures? What conditions regarding locations apply to different technologies, and how will the energy landscape change on the pathway to greenhouse gas neutrality? What regional effects will occur, and how can the overloading of individual regions be counteracted?

At locations in Berlin-Buch, Berlin-Mitte, Heidelberg and Mannheim, our researchers harness interdisciplinary collaboration to decipher the complexities of disease at the systems level – from molecules and cells to organs and the entire organism. Through academic, clinical, and industry partnerships, as well as global networks, we strive to translate biological discoveries into applications that enable the early detection of deviations from health, personalize treatment, and ultimately prevent disease. First founded in 1992, the Max Delbrück Center today inspires and nurtures a diverse talent pool of 1,800 people from over 70 countries. We are 90 percent funded by the German federal government and 10 percent by the state of Berlin.<br/><br/><br/>The Chromatin (Dys)function group offers an exciting opportunity to explore an essential question:- how does chromatin move and behave to control genes? To do so, you will lead an exciting HFSP-funded collaboration to apply single molecule imaging and genomics to map chromatin dynamics and its consequences. <br/><br/>Job Description:<br/>Chromatin is not immobile. It is a highly dynamic material whose 3D structure controls essential genomic functions from transcription to DNA repair. But how does chromatin behave as a material —as a liquid, solid or viscoelastic gel— to perform these functions in living cells? Without answering this, we cannot truly understand how chromatin is disrupted in disease.<br/><br/>The successful candidate will now address this by studying a unique model of extreme chromatin dynamics– the mammalian retina as part of a HFSP-funding consortium. They will map these dynamics by combining<br/>single cell genomics with single molecule imaging in close collaboration with the Anders lab (MIT). They will further cooperate with the Michieletto lab (Edinburgh University) to integrate these data with computational models.<br/><br/>Requirements:<br/>We are looking for a creative and enthusiastic Postdoc (m/f/d) with in-depth experience in chromatin biology, gene regulation, and genomics/microscopy. Mice will also be a key model and so experience designing and performing animal experiments is advantageous.<br/> <br/> The postdoc will be expected to take a senior leadership role in directing and designing projects, supporting fellow lab mates and working in a team. The project will also be a interdisciplinary international collaboration and so the candidate must have excellent communication skills and be fluent in oral and written English.<br/><br/>Benefits:<br/><ul><li>international working environment with communication in English and German</li><li> interesting career opportunities and a range of opportunities for further qualification and training</li><li>Compatibility of family and career certified by the workandfamily audit (“berufundfamilie audit”)</li><li>Support for "New Berliners" through the MDC Welcome &amp; Family Office</li></ul><br/>You also benefit from:<br/><ul><li>a remuneration in accordance with the collective agreement for the federal public service (TVöD-Bund), including additional company pension schemes</li><li>a secure job</li><li>flexible working hours and childcare support</li><li>the possibility of mobile working </li><li> an idyllic green campus, which is easily accessible by bicycle, public transport or car</li><li>free use of Nextbike from the Buch S-Bahn station to the campus</li><li>Subsidy for the job ticket as well as discounts in the campus canteen </li><li>On-campus health and fitness center</li><li>additional health benefits such as flu vaccination, eye test, ergonomics advice at the workplace</li></ul><br/><br/>Team: Robson Lab<br/>Publication period: 18.06.2025 - 09.07.2025<br/>Desired starting date: 01.09.2025<br/>Job location: MDC Berlin-Mitte<br/>Hannoversche Str. 28<br/>10115 Berlin<br/>Employment period: Fixed Term<br/>The position is fixed-term for initially 2 years, with the option of tenure.<br/>Scope of employment: Full time<br/>Salary: Remuneration will be according to the TVöD Bund, depending on the personal requirements, up to the fee group E13.<br/>Application: Please use our online portal and submit your application including a cover letter, CV (without photo, age and information about your family status) and other relevant attachments.<br/><br/>If you have a foreign degree, please submit proof of the recognition of your Master's degree in Germany with your application.

These conflicts have recently been exacerbated by the ambitious expansion targets for offshore wind farms (OWF) associated with the energy transition.<br/><br/> 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: <br/> 1) The co-creation and transfer of non-invasive monitoring strategies to monitor the marine environment, <br/> 2) The assessment of the biodiversity and connectivity of marine protected areas (MPAs) in the context of multiple uses, and <br/> 3) The co-creation of socially acceptable marine conservation measures and MPAs, associated governance structures and marine education measures. <br/> <br/>'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&nbsp;North and Baltic Seas.<br/> <br/>The advertised position focuses on the co-creation and transfer of non-invasive monitoring strategies for marine fauna monitoring using environmental DNA metabarcoding.
