The application for the GHG project Manager is now closed.
IHA is recruiting a Project Manager to manage the IHA/UNESCO Greenhouse Gas Research Initiative. The final deadline for application is 30 May 2008.
GHG Status of Freshwater Reservoirs
In collaboration with UNESCO, IHA is working on a project relating to the greenhouse gas (GHG) status of freshwater reservoirs. Work to date has focused on bringing together the scientific community (two UNESCO workshops), producing a scoping paper on the current methodologies and knowledge gaps, and the drafting of a project proposal for future coordinated research and improved understanding on the impact of reservoirs on natural GHG emissions. It will be the responsibility of the GHG Project Manager to take this initiative forward on behalf of IHA.
The Role: GHG Project Manager
This is a unique opportunity for a highly motivated professional to contribute to an important climate-change issue. It is a multi-dimensional role, coordinating an international research effort. Work will involve close collaboration with a scientific forum established by UNESCO. The GHG Project Manager will steer the various project components, manage the knowledge base, and report on: coordinated field measurements of carbon transport and GHG emissions, methodology to assess reservoir impact on the natural carbon cycle, empirical and process-based predictive modelling of reservoir impact, and appropriate mitigation measures where necessary.
Applications: CV and letter of application describing why the post is of interest, and demonstrating that your skills and experience are consistent with the requirements. Please respond as soon as possible, and by 30 May 2008 at the latest, to Mr.Richard Taylor, Executive Director, International Hydropower Association
