In the NCCR CLIM+ programme, storylines are used to work inter- and transdisciplinarily to develop adaptation solutions to climate extremes. While individual storylines target adaptation to a specific type of extreme event, it is important to ensure the exchange of inter- and transdisciplinary learnings across storylines. We seek a re-searcher to support the coordination and integration across several storylines (drought impacts on agriculture, transboundary water conflicts, positive social tipping points). You will be the physical science expert in a team with social scientists and transdisciplinary research experts and you will support the choice of methods for sci-ence and transdisciplinary integration.
You will be part of the NCCR CLIM+ programme and benefit from its extensive exchange and training in inter- and transdisciplinary research. You will publish your results in scientific journals and present them at national and international conferences.
