Join a leading research project at Eawag, where you explore the hidden movements of lake surfaces on the LéXPLORE platform at Lake Geneva. Work at the edge of physics and environmental science, using advanced tools to understand how turbulence changes in lakes. Your work will help create open science data used by researchers worldwide.
Your tasks
- Use microstructure profilers and moored instruments to map turbulence patterns in lake surface layers across different depths and seasons.
- Study how the wind and weather shape the lake's surface structure.
- Analyze how energy moves and how heat is balanced in the lake's surface.
- Develop better ways to monitor lake surface turbulence all the time.
- Contribute your research to a global open-access database.
What you bring
- Master's degree in physics, physical oceanography, mechanical engineering, environmental science, applied mathematics, or computer science.
- Interest in fluid dynamics and turbulence.
- Enjoy connecting theory with real field observations.
- Work well in a team and like to collaborate.
- Ready to learn new skills in environmental measurement and data analysis.
What we offer
- Gain technical skills with the latest profiling technology and data analysis methods.
- Work closely with top experts in aquatic physics and partner universities.
- Be part of open science with your research shared worldwide.
- Supportive work environment that values different experiences, strengths, and perspectives.
- Flexible work options to help balance your job and personal life.
