This PhD position investigates how modified cellulose nanocrystals self-assemble into structurally colored materials. The project aims to create robust, water-resistant photonic pigments based on renewable nanomaterials for applications in paints, coatings, and inks.

PhD research to develop statistically rigorous validation methods for near-real-time land cover change monitoring.

This PhD position explores how cities globally respond to the risk of extreme water scarcity ("Day Zero" events). The research analyzes policy responses, risk perceptions, and societal adaptations in six cities (Bogotá, Mexico City, Barcelona, Bengaluru, Chennai, and Cape Town). The successful candidate will conduct policy document analysis, interviews, and surveys to understand how risk images influence urban responses to water scarcity.

Postdoctoral Researcher to develop and implement hydrodynamic and water quality models for rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. Will integrate multi-source data and contribute to data assimilation and model calibration workflows. Develop AI-driven hydrodynamic models to monitor pollutant dispersion and contribute to the scientific development of the project.
