PhD position in practical implementation of nature-based solutions

Are you interested in long-term sustainability and possibilities for implementation of nature-based solutions?

This PhD project will tackle the pressing challenge of creating and adapting climate-resilient coastal zones through nature-based solutions (NbS). As sea levels rise and coastal areas sink, traditional flood defenses are no longer enough. 

Your job

To have successful NbS projects (specifically sediment based NbS – such as sedimentation enhancing strategies), we need to identify and overcome major practical challenges in their implementation. This includes the physical capabilities of NbS to create and maintain new land and ecosystems, the usability of these new areas for different purposes, possibilities for integration with existing grey infrastructure and how NbS projects are practically implemented with stakeholders (including successes and challen...
