This position involves the further development of a global land use model, including macroeconomic and energy linkages as well as socio-economic impacts of global changes at global, EU and macro-regional level. The model framework will be applied to assess climate change damages, adaptation and mitigation options in the agricultural sector. Background in agricultural, resource or development economics, geography or applied mathematics is needed, complemented by experience in mathematical programming (preferably with GAMS).
