To strengthen the existing expertise in modelling of thermo-hydro-mechanical coupled pro-cesses in fractured porous media at the Department Environmental Informatics of the UFZ in order to establish a leading position in the field of coupled process simulations for applications in salt cavern storage, we offer a project scientist position at the earliest possible date.

A new trilateral project (UFZ Halle, ZALF Müncheberg, TU-Dresden) on "Vadose zone Modeling of water flow in hill slope Soil (VAMOS)", funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), will make use of existing long term monitoring data from a TERENO lysimeter network to develop new tools for modeling hydraulic non-equilibrium and the onset of lateral flows along hill slopes.

PhD candidate for characterizing hydrogen-utilizing microbial communities from salt caverns

Bachelor- or Masterthesis: Microscale analysis of bioconversion in presence of sorbents in the department Solar Materials

We are looking for a motivated student for a master thesis in an important and interesting area. The thesis will cover antibiotic degradation in the area of environmental microbiology.
