Climate Change Graz Post Doc Fellowship Program 2023

Post Doc Fellowship Program 2023 - Call extended!

 

The Field of Excellence Climate Change Graz is offering 5 post-doctoral fellowships at University of Graz, Austria, for 3 months (ideally from October to December 2023). The program is designed for PostDoc researchers from all academic fields working on climate change who wish to collaborate with one (or more) of the research groups of the Field of Excellence Climate Change Graz.

We are particularly interested in contributions to the following interdisciplinary research fields:

  • Interacting Organisms, Environments, and Societies: Interdisciplinary Approaches for Coping with Climate Risks
  • Epistemology of Climate Models and Realistic Possibilities in Climate Risk Assessment
  • Socio-hydrological Approaches to the Assessment of Climate Change Impacts on Water Resources
  • Development of Soil Amendments to Support Carbon Management
  • Cryospheric Processes in the Arctic and High Mountain Areas under Climate Change
  • Interdisciplinary Approaches for Assessing the Fair Allocation of Benefits and Burdens of the Transformation to Climate Neutrality
  • Intertemporal Dimensions in Climate Litigation
  • Developing the Energy Market to Expand Variable Renewables: Aspects of Economic and Legal Design,
  • Challenges in the Decarbonization of the Mobility Sector,
  • Rapid Transition Pathways and Social Tipping Points
  • The Interplay of Mitigation, Adaptation and Geoengineering: Questions of Governance, Strategy and Ethics

Details may be found here.

The fellowship will cover costs of travel, housing and subsistence

Applicants are asked to send their research proposal, motivation letter und CV incl. publication list until 30th April 2023 to harald.stelzer(at)uni-graz.at.

Circular Bioengineering: FWF Cluster of Excellence aims to revolutionise the product cycle

Take a renewable raw material from nature – wood, for example – break it down into its building blocks and use them to create a functional material, such as a water-repellent surface coating, with the help of green chemistry. Once this has served its purpose, break it down again into its chemical components and use them to build something new. This idea is set to revolutionise the production and life cycle of materials and goods. The Cluster of Excellence "Circular Bioengineering", funded by the Austrian Science Fund FWF, is researching how to produce products from biomass, develop sustainable methods for the production process, and open options for returning products that have reached the end of their lifetime back into a cycle. The University of Graz is a partner in this Cluster of Excellence, for which the FWF is providing 18 million euros. Including its own funds, the total volume of the project is 27 million euros. The lead is with the BOKU University in Vienna.

Climate change update: ClimateTracer of the University of Graz provides reliable data

Yesterday, the Copernicus Climate Change Service of the European Union published its data on global warming up to end of November 2024. These confirm that this year will see the 1.5 °C threshold clearly exceeded for the first time. The Wegener Center at the University of Graz already computed an accurate full-year prediction: the global near-surface air temperature in 2024 will rise by 1.62 °C – plus/minus 0.05 °C standard deviation – compared to the pre-industrial level. Such latest predictions for 2024 and other essential data on climate change are provided by the scientists via the Graz Climate Change Indicators (GCCI) portal.

Novel Methods of Semiconductor Manufacturing: University of Graz is partner in EU project

How can technological innovations be aligned with principles of sustainability and circularity? This is a challenge being tackled by researchers at the Department of Environmental Systems Sciences at the University of Graz. As a partner in a new EU project, the team, led by Rupert Baumgartner, is contributing its expertise in sustainability assessment for the semiconductor manufacturing process. The focus of the research project “HaloFreeEtch” is on developing innovative, environmentally friendly etching methods for semiconductors.

A result that we can continue to work with: Climate law expert Oliver Ruppel on the COP29

The UN Climate Change Conference, COP29, came to an end last Sunday in Baku, Azerbaijan. Disappointing for many: too little money to support developing countries in the fight against climate change and no movement on phasing out fossil fuels. However, Oliver Ruppel, Head of "Clim:Law: Graz – Research Centre for Climate Law", can certainly take something from the outcome. He explains why in this interview.
