Call n. 1 (out of 2): 3-year Researcher position in Quantitative
Precipitation Nowcasting
The hydrology group at the department of Civil and Environmental
Engineering of the University of Cagliari (Sardinia, Italy) is
looking for one researcher for three years, fully funded by the
NextGeneration EU program for the GeoSciences IR Project,
coordinated by ISPRA (The Italian Institute for Environmental
Protection and Research). The project will set-up a national network
of infrastructures to improve monitoring and risk assessment in the
different sectors of Earth Sciences.
The successful candidate will develop, in close collaboration with
the research unit, precipitation ensemble nowcasting procedures
based on different techniques (optical flow and deep learning),
preserving scaling properties of observed precipitation.
Developments in Quantitative Precipitation Nowcasting (QPN) will be
implemented for near-realtime processing in an operational
perspective, with an emphasis on radar data merging to take
advantage of different data sources. The researcher will develop and
test procedures on radar data retrieved in Sardinia, and
specifically on the urban area of Cagliari, as well as on other case
studies of the GeoScience network (18 partners among Italian
Universities and Research institutions).
Applicants must hold a doctoral degree (PhD or equivalent) with a
master’s degree (or equivalent) in a relevant field (e.g.,
Hydrology, Engineering, Meteorology, Physics, Geosciences, ICT etc.)
to apply.

Call n. 2 (out of 2): 3-year Researcher position in Continuous
Hydrological Modeling
The hydrology group at the department of Civil and Environmental
Engineering of the University of Cagliari (Sardinia, Italy) is
looking for one full time research fellow (RTDa) for three years.
The position is fully funded by the NextGeneration EU program by the
project RETURN - multi-Risk sciEnce for resilienT commUnities undeR
a changiNg climate. The selected candidate will work under the
activities of the project spoke "Water".
The successful candidate will tailor continuous hydrological models,
specifically focused on arid ad intermittent watersheds, also in a
context of climate change. The research activity will lead to
advanced modeling of ungauged basins hydrological response, with
particular attention to flash floods. At the same time research will
deepen the effects of droughts compounds events through the
assessment of socio-hydrological direct impacts on the food sectors
(i.e. wheat yield) and more generally on local ecosystems.
Applicants must hold a doctoral degree (PhD or equivalent) with a
master’s degree (or equivalent) in a relevant field (e.g.,
Hydrology, Engineering, Physics, Geosciences, etc.) to apply.
