Job Description
The Dept of Civil, Structural & Environmental Engineering, Trinity College Dublin invites applications for 3 fully funded 4-year PhD positions available at Trinity College Dublin, the University of Dublin, Ireland, to work on a research project related to assessing the efficacy of Nature-based Solutions (NbS) included in agri-environmental schemes. This project will focus on field monitoring and numerical modelling of low and high intensity agricultural study sites before and after the implementation of NbS to quantify the associated benefits for water quality and the aquatic environment. The successful candidates will join an active research group at Trinity College Dublin, working under the supervision of Prof. Patrick Morrissey together with Prof. Laurence Gill and Prof. Muhammad Ali. The environmental research group is a multidisciplinary team with experience and expertise in environmental engineering, hydrology, hydrogeology, numerical modelling, wastewater treatment, microbial ecology, and applied bioinformatics.
Post 1 will be focused in field monitoring of water quality and water quantity associated with the NbS measures including associated lab analysis.
Post 2 will be focused in numerical modelling of the study sites using hydrological and hydrogeological models together with more regional GIS models. Scenario analysis will also be carried out using high resolution climate data. Some limited field work will also be associated with this posy.
Post 3 will be focused on field monitoring of gaseous emissions and microbiology (abundance and processes) with associated lab analysis. Some limited modelling will also be involved including scenario analysis.
Funding Information
The project is sponsored by the Irish Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
