Founded in 1409, Leipzig University is one of Germany’s largest universities and a leader in research and medical training. With around 30,000 students and more than 5000 members of staff across 14 faculties, it is at the heart of the vibrant and outward-looking city of Leipzig. Leipzig University offers an innovative and international working environment as well as an exciting range of career opportunities in research, teaching, knowledge and technology transfer, infrastructure and administration.

Leipzig University is starting a new research training group on the Economics of Connected Natural Commons: Atmosphere and Biodiversity (ECO-N), funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). The project involves the Faculties of (1) Economics and Management Science, (2) Life Sciences, and (3) Physics and Earth System Sciences at Leipzig University, as well as the Leibniz Institute for Tropospheric Research, the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ), and the German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research (iDiv) Halle-Jena-Leipzig.
ECO-N combines interdisciplinary research on how to sustainably use and conserve natural commons such as biodiverse forests, fertile soils, regional climate, or clean urban air with a rigorous course programme providing disciplinary and interdisciplinary competencies. A total of approximately 30 early-career researchers and established researchers from economics, meteorology, and biology will collaborate within ECO-N. A welcome week, annual retreats, and a continuous lecture series with international guests, and synthesis activities, constitute the collaborative, fair and inclusive working environment in the ECO-N research training group. Doctoral programmes in Economics, Meteorology and Integrative Biodiversity Research provide high-level disciplinary graduate education, complemented by interdisciplinary advanced training modules tailored to ECO-N.

We seek to fill the above positions from 1 September 2024.
- Accounting for aerosols in climate mitigation pathways and on financial markets
- Quantifying distributional effects of adaptation to future "record-shattering" heat waves
- Explaining within-city-differences in air quality and socio-economic outcomes
- Assessing the human benefits of soil multifunctionality
- Proposing elements of optimal forest management

About the position
- Fixed term of four years (until August 2028)
- 75 % of a full-time position (each position)
- Planned remuneration: salary group 13 TV-L

Duties
- Quantitative research on sustainable use of specific natural commons as part of an interdisciplinary team
