The institutes for climate research offer jobs in research, as well as in the administrative field. The overview shows offers of DKK members and other organizations.

Climate Service Center Germany (GERICS) - Hamburg

The Climate Service Center Germany (GERICS), a scientific organisational entity of the Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon, invites applications for

• PhD candidate - Modeling urban climate and human health under climate change
• PhD candidate - Modeling exposure to heat stress in urban areas using agent-based modelling
• two PhD Candidates in the BMBF Junior Research Group on “Co-creating Climate Services for Care Economy and Caring Society” (CoCareSociety), in the frame of the BMBF FONA Junior Research Groups on Global Change: Climate, Environment and Health
• PostDoc - Co-development of climate services for future urban health

GERICS develops science-based prototype products and services in support to government, administration and business in their efforts to adapt to climate change. It builds up a national and international network structure in order to integrate existing competences and knowledge, and to link various actors within the complex area of climate change.
The successful candidate will be part of the CoSynHealth young research group in collaboration with the Universität Hamburg. The goal of the group is to develop sustainable transformation scenarios for city quarters to reduce conflicting goals and maximize synergies between carbon-neutral and healthy city action pathways.

Global Climate Forum (GCF)

The Global Climate Forum is filling the position of:

• PhD student (65% position) on the global economics of coastal adaptation to sea-level rise
  

The Global Climate Forum (GCF) in Berlin is a non-profit transdisciplinary research institute founded by noble laureate Klaus Hasselmann. GCF brings together representatives of different parties concerned with climate change including energy industries, insurances, policy-makers, environmental NGOs, and scientists to carry out joint studies that support environmental policies.

The Research Process Adaptation and Social Learning (ASL) at GCF conducts internationally leading work on the economics and governance of coastal adaptation to sea-level rise from local to global scales.
