Jobs and PhD positions


Closing date for applications:  • Location: Leipzig Scientist (f/m/x)
Closing date for applications:  • Location: Leipzig Master Thesis - Aerobic biodegradation potential of benzothiazole and mercaptobenzothiazole
The master's thesis is thematically linked with a PhD study aiming for the characterization of BT and MBT biodegradation by soil-plant systems using stable isotope approaches, and embedded in the PhD colloquium CLEANER investigating pollutant-sink functions of Blue-Green Infrastructures (https://www.ufz.de/index.php?en=49715).
Closing date for applications:  • Location: Leipzig Master Thesis - Investigation of the impact of ATES systems on local groundwater microbiome
Underground thermal energy storage in aquifers (Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage, ATES) can make an important contribution to seasonal heat management in urban areas. The aim of the master thesis is to investigate the effects of ATES systems on the groundwater microbiome and on the local contamination of the aquifer by means of laboratory microcosm experiments.
Closing date for applications:  • Location: Leipzig Master Thesis Project - The effects of landscape heterogeneity on population dynamics
This is an exciting and innovative Master thesis project that will support our knowledge about what tools are available to the scientific community in order to answer research questions in Landscape Ecology. By understanding the mechanism behind mesoscale spatial population dynamics, we can contribute to the knowledge about how to bend the curve of biodiversity loss.
