keen to recruit applicants whose research includes quantitative analysis
of climatologically or environmentally relevant observational data
acquired using field-based approaches, which can include, but is not
limited to, environmental geochemistry, geomorphology, or field-based
fluid flow. For further details, see here [33]. On-site seminars and
interviews will be conducted in the week of 27/11/2023. Informal
