Job description
Offer DescriptionScientific-technical services: Compound flood risk.Collaborator on activities related to the project stated. Collaborator on activities related to the project/agreement stated.One of the objectives of the project “Hybrid Multiscale System for Short-Term Prediction and Climate Change Projections of Flooding Due to Compound Events (MyFlood)” is to develop a system for both short-term (early warning systems) and long-term (climate change effects) predictions of flooding due to compound events in coastal zones. This system aims to improve current predictions, providing significant practical implications for flood risk management in coastal areas. This will require the development of a series of hydrological and hydraulic flood models at both regional (the entire Spanish coast) and local scales (pilot cases).The person hired will collaborate with the other project partners in:– Developing flood models using Iber software for the pilot cases established in the project.– Analyzing compound flooding in the pilot cases.– Processing and statistically analyzing observed rainfall, discharge, sea level, and wave data.– Writing reports on the results.Where to apply WebsiteRequirementsResearch Field Engineering » Civil engineering Education Level Bachelor Degree or equivalentSpecific RequirementsIt’s advisable that the selected candidate has knowledge of:– Numerical flood modeling using Iber software– Hydrological modeling of extreme precipitation events– Q-GIS at a user level– Python at a user levelAdditional InformationEligibility criteriaAcademic record.
