The Network for Computational Modeling in the Social and Ecological Sciences (www.comses.net), part of the School of Complex Adaptive Systems, has an opening for a junior frontend software engineer to build software tools to support open, transparent, reusable, and interoperable scientific computation for the study of complex social and natural systems. This entry-level position will help the successful candidate grow in their ability to build functional, intuitive user interfaces.
Search: We are looking for a post-doctoral researcher, with a strong social science background and previous experience in agent-based modeling, to join our interdisciplinary team that aims to be[…]
Within the framework of the research project PEKRIS II, which is being carried out in cooperation with the University of Oldenburg Germany, the University of British Columbia Vancouver Canada, the Australian Antarctic Division in Hobart (all three responsible for the empirical part) and TU Dresden Germany (responsible for modeling), the TU Dresden is searching for an ecological modeler at the earliest possible date.
A rewarding opportunity is currently available for a highly motivated researcher within the Agricultural Systems and Catchment Modelling group. The group brings together biophysical crop and soil modellers with software developers to develop new and novel applications of existing models as well as develop new models and tools.
Our research group is developing an agent-based simulation tool to understand how human and natural systems interact in response to agricultural best management practices (BMPs). This research will seek to identify and assess the factors influencing farmer’s responses to proposed BMPs, develop simulation tools to link agent-based models of farmer decision making to a hydrological model of nutrient loading, and model scenarios to explore the resilience of watershed systems to changes in […]
VU University Amsterdam is accepting applications for an exciting postdoc position in the Institute for Environmental Studies. The postdoc will contribute to research within various land change projects within the department with a main objective to develop and test innovative methods for simulating land system changes at regional to global scales in the context of climate and environmental change. The successful candidate has a strong interest to represent human agency in large-scale land […]
