Join the forefront of polar research in this PhD project where you will explore Arctic sea ice decline and ocean warming using satellite data and coupled modelling tools.

We are looking for a highly motivated PhD candidate with an MSc background in Earth, Environmental or Climate Sciences or other appropriate fields to work on the project ‘Past, present and future global inland-water methane budget under the impact of compounded changes’.

Would you like to work in a multidisciplinary team in the field of Arctic biogeochemistry? In this PhD project, you will address the fate of terrestrial carbon as it is mobilised along the terrestrial-aquatic continuum in Western Greenland and quantify the size and lability of the coastal tundra carbon pool

We are looking for a highly motivated student to pursue research at the forefront of Arctic terrestrial and aquatic systems biogeochemistry. This PhD project aims to quantify geochemical and ecological terrestrial-aquatic connectivity in Western Greenland, identify potential shifts in connectivity caused by climate change, and explore and synthesise pan-arctic terrestrial-aquatic connectivity shifts.

The Department of Earth Sciences, Utrecht University, is looking for a highly motivated PhD candidate with an MSc background in Earth Sciences, Oceanography, Climate Sciences or other appropriate fields. In this four-year study you will elucidate ocean alkalinity dynamics and develop new and improve existing models for ocean carbon cycling.

We are looking for a highly motivated PhD candidate with an MSc background in Earth, Environmental or another relevant field. You will work on the project "Reconstructing early to middle Eocene climate variability".

At the Royal Netherlands Institute of Sea Research (NIOZ) we are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated PhD candidate to work on the feedbacks between North African climate and the northeastern tropical Atlantic upwelling system in the past.

At Wageningen University & Research we are looking for a pro-active, analytical and self-motivated PhD candidate to contribute to our understanding of fire impacts on vegetation and carbon emissions in a rapidly warming Arctic.

The Department of Earth Sciences, Utrecht University, is looking for a PhD candidate to work on the project ‘Coupling biological pump changes to variations in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) during rapid climate transitions’.

How does a collapse of the Gulfstream system (AMOC) affect food security – and would geoengineering measures help or make it worse? The Institute for Marine and Atmospheric Research Utrecht, Utrecht University, is looking for a PhD candidate to investigate!

The department of Marine Microbiology and Biogeochemistry at NIOZ is looking for a postdoc to develop new methodology to enable position specific stable isotope analysis of biomarker lipids.
