E&G QSJ Special Issue @ INQUA

To celebrate the first Journal Impact Factor and CiteScore of E&G QSJ submission for a special issue of E&G QSJ inspired by INQUA will open soon. Inspired by the motto of INQUA Roma, the SI will be titled "Quaternary research in times of change – inspired by INQUA Roma 2023". It will be advertised on the journal website with the following teaser:

 

"This special issue is inspired by the motto of the 2023 INQUA conference held in Rome, Italy, in July 2023. The years since the last INQUA conference held in Dublin in 2019, have indeed been times of change in many respects, but the programme of this year’s INQUA conference impressively documents that Quaternary research has accepted and coped with these challenges. This special issue aims at assembling contributions reflecting the advances in all fields of Quaternary research. Finally, it celebrates that E&G QSJ has received its first impact factor and CiteScore in July 2023. As a community-based journal, we especially welcome contributions from young researchers."

 

It woud be great if you could please help us to advertise the SI at INQUA, or elsewhere, because the SI is not restricted to contributions presented at INQUA. For advertising purposes, you'll find a teaser slide for download below this text, which should comply with the INQUA presentation guidelines. If you would like to contribute to the SI, please don't hesitate to contact us. You will find all key information for submission in the teaser slide below.

 

Kind regards,
Gilles Rixhon (lead guest editor), Julia Meister (guest editor), Ingmar Unkel (guest editor), Christopher Lüthgens (chief editor)

Communinty. Exchange. Research

The German Quaternary Association (Deutsche Quartärvereinigung, DEUQUA e.V.) is the official union of German speaking Quaternary scientists. The aim of the Association is to support Quaternary science, to present it to the public, to intensify contacts to the applied sciences, and to provide advice to public and political authorities on issues related to Quaternary science. Furthermore, the Association supports networking among Quaternary scientists and related organizations worldwide.

E&G Quaternary Science Journal

DEUQUA publishes the peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary open-access journal E&G Quaternary Science Journal twice per year.


EGQSJ publishes peer-reviewed articles and express reports, as well as thesis abstracts related to Quaternary geology, paleo-environments, paleo-ecology, soil science, paleo-climatology, geomorphology, geochronology, archaeology, and geoarchaeology focussing on, but not limited to, research from central Europe.



Stellenausschreibung LfU Schleswig-Holstein

Im Geschäftsbereich des Ministeriums für Energiewende, Klimaschutz, Umwelt und Natur des Landes Schleswig-Holstein (MEKUN) ist beim Landesamt für Umwelt (LfU) am Standort ist zum nächstmöglichen Zeitpunkt die Stelle einer/eines als Geowissenschaftler/in (m/w/d) im Dezernat 60 „Geologie“ auf Dauer in Vollzeit zu besetzen.

 

Im Dezernat „Geologie“ erfolgt die systematische und flächendeckende geologische und bodenkundliche Landesaufnahme der oberflächennahen Gesteine, die Fachplanung Rohstoffsicherung im Rahmen der Raumordnung, die Datensicherung nach dem Geologiedatengesetz und das Geofachdatenmanagement für die Abteilung Geologie und Boden. Im Rahmen der bodenkundlichen und geologischen Landesaufnahme werden Karten und geologische Schnitte und zukünftig auch geologische 3D-Modelle unterschiedlicher Auflösung erarbeitet. Dabei liegt ein besonderes Gewicht auf der Erkundung und Darstellung geogenetischer Zusammenhänge. Die erarbeiteten Fachgrundlagen dienen gleichermaßen der Bewertung von Geopotentialen und Georisiken und tragen zur nachhaltigen Nutzung und dem Schutz von Böden und Gesteinen bei. Als Grundlage der geologischen und bodenkundlichen Landesaufnahme dienen sowohl eigene als auch von Externen durchgeführte Bohrungen und andere geowissenschaftlichen Untersuchungen, aus den ebenfalls im Dezernat gepflegten Fachinformationssystemen der Abteilung.

FU Berlin - Universitätsprofessur für Angewandte Physische Geographie

GERMAN

 

Universitätsprofessur für Angewandte Physische Geographie - Ressourcenmanage-ment und Umwelthydrologie

Besoldungsgruppe: W 2 oder vergleichbares Beschäftigungsverhältnis Kennung: angew_geographie
Bewerbungsende: 24.08.2023

Die Angewandte Physische Geographie will die Fähigkeiten und das Wissen der Physischen Geographie außeruniversitär verwerten und anwenden. Im Vordergrund stehen dabei gesell-schaftlich relevante Probleme der Verfügbarkeit, Gefährdung und nachhaltigen Nutzung natür-licher Ressourcen (insbesondere Wasser), auch unter Einsatz moderner Methoden der Infor-mationsverarbeitung (z.B. KI, ML). Entsprechend soll die Professur für Angewandte Physische Geographie die Verknüpfung der universitären Forschung und Lehre mit der Praxis fördern, um die Studierenden schon im Rahmen des Studiums an ihren Beruf heranzuführen. Die Stel-leninhaberin/der Stelleninhaber soll dafür nicht nur über eine methodische und fachlich Breite verfügen, sondern soll sich auch durch eine starke Vernetzung in die Praxis ausweisen kön-nen.

Aufgabengebiet:
Vertretung des o.g. Faches in Forschung und Lehre

Einstellungsvoraussetzungen:
gem. § 100 BerIHG

University Professor of Applied Physical Geography, Environmental Hydrology, and Resource Management Salary grade: W2 or equivalent Reference code:angew_geographie
Bewerbungsende: 24.08.2023

The aim of Applied Physical Geography is to apply skills and knowledge from physical geography to non-academic fields. A main focus will be placed on socially relevant topics such as the threats facing natural resources (especially water), as well as the availability and sustainable use thereof, while applying the latest data processing tools (e.g., artificial intelligence, machine learning). The new professor of applied physical geography will link university research and education with practical applications, preparing the students for future professional responsibilities. As such, the holder of the professorship should not only have a broad range of interdisciplinary skills, but should also have a strong professional network in place.

Responsibilities:

The successful applicant will cover research and teaching in the field of applied physical geography, environmental hydrology, and resource management.

Appointment requirements:

Governed by Section 100 of the Berlin Higher Education Act (Berliner Hochschulgesetz – BerIHG).

PhD Position at University of Gdańsk

A multiple in-situ cosmogenic nuclides approach to dating erratics within the southern fringe of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet (DatErr 2.0)

 

The Department of Geomorphology and Quaternary Geology at the University of Gdańsk is looking for a motivated person for a PhD position within the National Science Centre SONATA BIS project.

 

In the project "DatErr 2.0," we aim to use large glacial erratic boulders to reconstruct the chronology and dynamics of the retreat of the palaeo-ice sheet in Poland and Germany. The scientific goal of the project is to reconstruct the history of exposure of glacial erratics in the southern fringe of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet and to reconstruct the chronology and dynamics of ice sheet retreat in this region during the Saalian glaciation (MIS 6 or 8) and after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). The research involves determining the exposure time of large erratics deposited in the marginal part of the extensive ice sheet using several terrestrial cosmogenic isotopes produced in quartz (26Al, 10Be, and 14C). The project will be carried out over five years and involves collaboration with external partners from the European Centre for Research and Teaching of Environmental Geosciences (CEREGE) in France and the Cosmic Ray Isotope Sciences at Dalhousie (CRISDal) Laboratory and André E. Lalonde AMS Laboratory in Canada.

 

The project is led by Dr. Karol Tylmann from the Geomorphological Reconstructions Laboratory, Department of Geomorphology and Quaternary Geology. Candidates are requested to send their CV, motivation letter, references from the supervisor of their master's thesis or immediate superior, and consent to the processing of personal data to the following email address: k.tylmann@ug.edu.pl. The final deadline for submissions is July 10th at 3:00 pm, and the competition results will be announced by July 12th, 2023. Any questions regarding both the scientific scope of the project and the organizational-financial aspects can be directed to the same email address (k.tylmann@ug.edu.pl).

 

All details are also available from the PDF below.
