The main objective of this study is to know the effect that the polygons dedicated to mussel cultivation (mussel rafts) can have on the quality and production of the ecosystem of the Galician estuaries. Hundreds of ropes are suspended into the water column from each structure. Mussels attach to the ropes and filter feed on phytoplankton and other suspended organic and inorganic particles. Ría de Arousa alone contains over 2,400 mussel rafts.
The effect of pollutant capture and dispersion from mussel raft polygons to other areas of the estuaries will be modeled to predict, on the one hand, their potential modulating effect on anthropogenic pollution and, on the other, the areas where waste from these polygons may accumulate.

The contracted postdoc will get a gross monthly income of 2.700 euros (14 payments). The contract will begin in February 2025 and last for one year, with a weekly workload of 35 hours.
The postdoc will work at the Physics Department (Group of Nonlinear Physics, CRETUS Research Center).

• Brief work description
  The candidate will utilize a Lagrangian model to simulate transport of waste from the mussel ropes suspended from the rafts. Because of their density, this debris may migrate vast distances at various depths, therefore the model should account for this, and parameterize the debris release from the mussel ropes beneath the rafts.
•  Requirements
  Good knowledge of scientific programming; Fortran and Python. Doctorate related to the project (physics, mathematics, etc). Research papers on Lagrangian transport models. Experience dealing with Netcdf file formats, ARGIS/QGIS and good skills using Linux clusters will be valued. Good knowledge of English.

October 2024

A research contract of 6-12 months is offering to conduct research in areas that combine chemical process modeling with Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to improve time-to-market, sustainability performance, and to identify synergies and gaps between circularity assessment and LCA. The research activities will be carried out in  the framework of the EU Horizon Project Biological Resources Certifications Schemes (BIORECER), which aims to ensure the environmental performance and traceability of biological raw materials used by the bio-based industry, by implementing guidelines to strengthen current certification schemes. The candidate will be incorporated into the Group of Environmental Biotechnology  –BIOGROUP (usc.es), one of the most important environmental engineering research groups in Europe. The contract start date is flexible and is expected to be January 2025. It is possible and desirable to extend this contract to 3 years for the completion of a PhD thesis.

• Research area
  Life Cycle Assessment and Biorefineries.
• Brief work description
  – Develop rigorous modeling of pilot and large-scale strategies through process simulation.
  – Evaluate and efficiently optimize supply chains for bioproducts derived from organic solid waste and biomass.
  – Develop mathematical models to optimize and predict innovative biomass-based strategies through biochemical simulations.
  – Perform dynamic LCA to predict the long-term future of proposed technologies
  – Develop sustainability transition assessment rules for sustainable product regulation.
• Applications before 30th October 2024.
• CRETUS Researcher: Maite Moreira
