1 Post-Doctoral Position and 2 Ph.D. Positions
Leibniz-Institute of Marine Sciences (IFM-GEOMAR), University of Kiel
Three positions are sought for a DFG funded project on improving our understanding of Atlantic multi-decadal climate variability and predictability, beginning January 1st, 2008.
Postdoctoral scientist shall be employed to develop and apply a hybrid-coupled model for investigating the solution space of Atlantic climate variability with respect to key parameters. Results will be used to reduce uncertainties in the mechanisms of Atlantic multi-decadal variability, and to explain variability of climate models.
PhD student shall be employed to analyse the simulated variability in climate models and in idealized model experiments.
PhD student shall be employed to investigate statistical/dynamical methods for ocean reconstruction using historical data. The work will involve running coupled and uncoupled climate models. Applicants for the postdoctoral position must have a PhD in meteorology, oceanography, mathematics, or physics. Applicants for the PhD positions must have a university degree in mathematics, physics, meteorology, or oceanography. Experience in dynamical systems theory, climate modelling, and analysis of observational/model data are desired.
The postdoctoral position is initially for two years, but with possible extension to a third year. The PhD positions are each for three years. The salary class will be E 13 TV-L of the German tariffs for public employees. The IFM-GEOMAR is an equal opportunity employer and encourages female scientists and scientists with disabilities to apply. Applications must be in writing, and include a cover letter, CV, contact details of at least two referees, and a one-page statement outlining the applicant's research interests.
Applications are to be sent by the 31st of October 2007 to:

Asian Young Leaders Climate Forum
British Council and WWF-Indonesia invites Asian young leaders' aged 18–30 yrs, committed to aspects of the climate change debate (ie. Mitigation, adaptation and communicating behavior change) and able to communicate effectively and convincingly in English to join Asian Young Leaders' Climate forum (AYLCF), at 4 – 7 December 2007 in Bogor, West Java.
AYLCF will involve countries in Asia Pacific e.g. Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam, India, Pakistan, Burma, China, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand, and also UK. Each country will send 2 young leaders to join in this 4 day program with presentation, workshop and cultural activities culminating in production of an action plan which will be taken to Bali COP for dissemination to a wider audience.
The young leaders would come from young politicians, influential regional scientist, social scientist, young leaders in NGO groups,interested journalist, young business leaders, young lawyers, and other professional and student leaders. All would have a bit of a track record in the field.
13th COP will take place in Bali in December 2007. The fact thatclimate change is a long-term phenomenon, early awareness amongsttomorrow leaders and their commitment to action will mean the worldwill be in a better position to meet the challenges being faces.
Through AYLCF, young leaders could demonstrate to the world that theyoung leaders of Asia are playing their part in tackling this globalproblem.

Research positions with possibility for PhD -- Kiel (Germany)
4 Research Positions
Christian-Albrechts-University, Department of Agricultural Economics, Kiel (Germany)
At the Department of Agricultural Economics of the Christian-Albrechts-University in Kiel the following positions have to be filled as soon as possible:
4 research positions
salary according to BAT IIa (75% for junior researchers)
the positions are limited for 2 years with the possibility of extension. Moreover, researchers have the possibility to obtain a PhD degree in agricultural economics or economics.
Work description: All positions are linked to the interdisciplinary EU-research project „Advanced-Eval“, which develops and applies advanced methods for the ex ante und ex post evaluation of EU-rural development policy programs. At the ethodological and theoretical level the following research topics are of interest within the project:
1. Agent-based Modeling of rural economy as a complex social and economic system incorporating social network relations among agents. In particular, the following research questions are addressed: How can the organization of economic action in social network relations be modeled quantitatively. What is the impact of social network relations on economic performance at the micro- and macro-level.
2. Applied Econometrics. Application of propensity-score matching methods and methods of spatial econometrics to analyze ex post the economic impact of various rural development programs.
3. Political Economy Modeling of EU-Rural Development Policy (EU-RD policy). Quantitative analysis of the impact of formal and informal political institutions on local government performance regarding the implementation of EU-RD policy. Empirical hypotheses are derived from game-theoretical or agent-based models of political decision making.
4. Simulation of an Economic-Ecological System based on a Multi-Agent-model. Incorporation of RD-policies into an economic decision-making model of farmers and a model of implied biological and physical processes at the regional level.
Researchers are directly integrated into a international and interdisciplinary research team within the EU-Project Advanced-eval. Moreover, all positions have access and are related to the Interdisciplinary Center of Numeric Simulation in applied Sciences as well as the DFG-Graduate School „Loosely connected systems and
Electronic E-Business“ at the CAU.
A master degree or a comparable University degree in agricultural or food economics, Economics or social science, mathematical or computational economics is essential. A good knowledge in quantitative methods of economics or social science, Agent-based Modeling or positive political theory would be an asset.
The University seeks to increase the proportion of women on its staff and applications by suitably qualified female candidates will be preferred. Qualified candidates with physical disabilities will be given preferential consideration.
