This position is linked to the EU project on the Impact Quantification of Global Changes. Based on the integrated assessment model REMIND, global change impacts on different socio-economic sectors have to be explored in a variety of scenarios without adaptation. A particular focus will be on the integration of cross-sectoral damage functions and the treatment of uncertainty about future climate damages. This position requires expertise in advanced quantitative methods and a background in environmental sciences, physics, economics, or a related field with a strong interest for inter-disciplinary research; experience in programming (preferably with GAMS) is an advantage.
