**Job Description**
This Postdoc position is part of the TropEcS institute initiative at ZMT, focusing on developing a biogeodynamic model to understand how Earth system components and human-induced changes impact life forms and geomorphic processes in tropical coastal wetland systems. The role involves coupling eco-evolutionary models with river delta models to synthesize information on functional diversity of wetland vegetation, model its interactive effects on erosion and sediment transport, and evaluate the impacts of human-induced changes to river discharge and land use in tropical coastal environments, specifically in Indonesia.
**Skills & Abilities**
• Research experience in numerical modelling, preferably with knowledge of either eco-evolutionary models and/or river delta models.
• Demonstrable ability to use programming languages such as Python, Julia, C, C++ or Fortran.
• Familiarity analysing functional diversity and/or geomorphological information.
• Curiosity-driven, creative, and critical thinker with the ability to articulate ideas into original and innovative manuscripts.
• Good communication and writing skills in English.
• Ability to work collaboratively in an international working environment.
**Qualifications**
Required Degree(s) in:
• Theoretical Ecology
• Geosciences
• Applied Mathematics
• Environmental Physics
• A related field
(Doctoral degree or close to finish)
