There is an opening for a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Manchester as part of a new £8m project “DAMS 2.0: Design and Assessment of resilient and sustainable interventions of water-energy-food-environment Mega-Systems” (http://gtr.rcuk.ac.uk/projects?ref=ES%2FP011373%2F1).
The selected postdoc will lead the modelling and analysis of historic and future impacts of dams on agricultural production, and evaluate how agricultural water demands can be balanced sustainably and equitably with those of hydropower, cities, and freshwater ecosystems under future uncertainty. The position is for an initial period of 36 months, and will focus on three selected case studies in Africa (Volta and Nile basins) and SE Asia (Salween basin in Myanmar).
