Eawag, the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology,
is recruiting for 4 Tenure Track Group Leader Positions on Climate
Change Adaptation.
At least one position will be in the general field of biodiversity,
and evolutionary biologists are explicitly encouraged to apply.
Aquatic systems, renowned for their rich biodiversity, are vulnerable
to the effects of climate change. They are experiencing rapid changes
due to rising temperatures, shifting precipitation patterns, and -
at higher altitudes - melting glaciers. At the same time, climate
change can lead to changes in water quality, exposing organisms to
combinations of chemical or microbial pollution and physical stressors
that contribute to biodiversity decline. Given its unique geographical
and environmental characteristics, Switzerland offers opportunities for
addressing challenges posed by climate change and biodiversity loss in
mountainous regions, rivers and lakes.
