Hope this is picked up, no time (i.e. delta elevation) to waste!
Thanks to Matt Kondolf & @RjpSchmitt, and the team.
We are hiring for a full-funded, 4-year #PhDposition available at @WUR, The Netherlands on #Sinking#river#deltas: modelling of #landsubsidence processes, projecting impacts of relative sea-level rise and designing solutions.

The coastal #subsidence session is back at #EGU24@EGU_GM, thanks to @DeltaSubsidence, @shirzaei, @cla_zocc and others. As part of @IPLSubsidence, the session is expanding its focus to examine subsidence more broadly.Orals: Tue, Apr 16, 10:45���12:30 room G2, Posters: 16:15-18:00.
New perspective paper in @OneEarth_CP on the paradigm shift in delta management to contact r slr through sediment enhancing strategies. Great collaborative work #UU#FutureDeltas#Hub!
How do we create sustainable deltas? See our new interdisciplinary open-access paper on sedimentation enhancing strategies to combat relative sea-level rise and transform delta management, from biophysical and societal perspectives: https://t.co/Qw4Rtc88Cl
Interviewed @NPORadio1 in @denieuwsbv by Patrick @lodiers on coastal #Landsubsidence worldwide, what we can learn from sinking cities like Jakarta and how with #science we aim to avoid this elsewhere! Great experience!
