Job title PhD Position in Environmental Risks and Benefits of Offshore Wind Farms. Company Wageningen University & Research (WUR), Marine Animal Ecology Group, in collaboration with Wageningen Marine Research (WMR), the Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research (NIOZ), and Statistics Netherlands (CBS). Description of the job Wageningen University & Research offers a fully funded PhD position within the NO-REGRETS project, a 5.5-year, multidisciplinary research programme funded by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) and co-designed with stakeholders to understand the ecological and economic tradeoffs of upscaling offshore wind farms in the North Sea in light of climate change and in relation to the ongoing food and nature transitions. Over the next decades, the use of the North Sea will dramatically increase to accommodate large-scale implementation of renewable energy platforms. While providing a sustainable source of energy,...

Job title PhD in Marine Technology – Response Estimation and Wave Prediction for Offshore Wind Farm Installation and Operations. Company Department of Marine Technology, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). Description of the job The Department of Marine Technology at NTNU offers a 3-year PhD position focused on response estimation based on remote distributed sensing of the wave field in an offshore wind park, in combination with metocean forecasting data. Cost- and risk-optimal installation and operation of offshore wind farms depend on accurate forecasts and predictions of environmental conditions and response of vessel and auxiliary systems. Improved sea-state and wave prediction can lead to real-time solutions for prediction of motion responses and wave loads during installation tasks such as turbine/blade installation as well as mooring and cable installation. The research task will further investigate exploitation of such methods for...

Job title PhD Candidate in Seaweed Hydrodynamics. Company Department of Marine Technology, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). Description of the job The Department of Marine Technology at NTNU offers a fully funded PhD position in the field of hydrodynamic loads on seaweed and macro algae. The application of the research is towards industrialization of seaweed production in general, and design of floating seaweed production facilities in particular. The main cost of a seaweed farm is the longlines, which there may be hundreds of kilometers of. The seaweed grows on the longlines and is exposed to waves and current at various stages of growth. The hydroelastic behaviour of the seaweed is not sufficiently well understood, and hence there are no good hydrodynamic load models. The purpose of this work is to increase the understanding of longlines with seaweed under sea loads and develop accountable hydrodynamic load models. The position is part...
