Your role would be to:
- explore how riparian zones play an important part in nutrient cycling and how their influence may change under future climate change, taking a modelling approach. You will help find ways to better represent riparian zones and their influence on carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus cycles in models and predict the influence of riparian zones on nutrient mobilisation and transport in catchments.
- review how current models represent riparian properties and processes and scoping their potential for modification.
- work closely with the wider team to understand findings from lab, field and geospatial research and explore how they can be integrated into models.
- prepare input data sets, set up, run, and test new modelling approaches at varying scales, and explore changes in future conditions, such as climate change.


You should have a PhD (or be close to submission for appointment at Grade 6) or post-doctoral experience in an area of relevant process knowledge (e.g.

terrestrial ecosystem, hydrology, climate or soil science) and modelling (e.g. process-based or data-based). You should have a demonstrable interest in this research area and experience developing, running and testing numerical/process-based models. A proven ability to communicate and work well as part of a team is essential.
