国际地球联盟是汇集了世界顶尖地球科学家的研究联盟机构，目前积极推进下一代地球系统集成分析研究。地球联盟拟实施推进全球系统规划科研项目，将面向全球招聘7名“地球博士后”。全球系统规划科研项目将综合研究地球科学、生物物理化学和人类社会交叉的复杂科学问题，用以解决这世界对思维转换和变革的迫切需求。
“地球博士后”将分别供职于在5个国际地球联盟研究分支机构：欧洲，南美和中国，形成一只国际团队。这些机构包括：波茨坦气候影响研究所（德国）、斯德哥尔摩大学全球变化中心（瑞典）、清华大学地球系统科学中心（中国）、INPE地球科学研究中心（巴西）、HZG气候服务中心（德国）。国际应用系统分析研究所(IIASA)将作为“地球博士后”团队的协作中心，团队青年科学家每年1-2次在这里进行整合研究。
国际地球联盟主席Johan Rockstrom教授（斯德哥尔摩全球变化中心主任）说:“在我们稳定且具备弹性的星球上，为了应对未来的发展，我们迫切需要深化我们的思维方式。我们这门新兴科学就是因此而启动。它将深化我们对全球范围内风险和机遇的理解，并预知潜在的可行性变革路径”。
根据国际地球联盟规划，这个新的研究课题的必要性源自人类社会与地球系统的紧张压力已经到达了爆发的临界点。人类社会的发展有可能彻底毁掉地球系统的弹性恢复能力，使地球系统陷入不可逆转的深渊。这种碰撞伴随着人类社会发展的宏大动机，在可持续发展的口号下日益显现。因此，更科学深入地理解在社会所需和地球系统弹性恢复之间的消长转换显得尤为至关重要。
为实现这一国际研究项目，国际地球联盟邀请相关学科背景的杰出年轻科学家申请“地球博士后”的7个职位。研究领域包括：地球系统集成建模；全球治理和经济可持续发展；可持续能源，技术和社会转换；全球资产，人类安全与人类行为。

Establishing the International Earth-Doc team
An Earth League Initiative
The Earth League is setting out to advance the next generation of integrated Earth System analysis. This is in response to the current urgent need to deepen our understanding of potential pathways and transformations within this increasingly turbulent Anthropocene towards future world development on a resilient and stable planet.
Therefore, we are embarking on a joint state-of-the-art World-Earth Systems modeling and analysis program, igniting the deeper fusion of biophysical systems and human dynamics. For this, Earth League invites applicants for 7 postdoc research positions, to be known as Earth-Docs. For further information on the rationale behind this program, please see here.
We appeal for excellent young scientists from different backgrounds in sustainability research, with the ability to bring powerful contributions to areas including:
· Integrated Earth System modeling
· Global governance and economics for sustainability
· Sustainable energy, and technological and societal transformations
· Global equity, human security and human behavior
This initial group of 7 postdoc researchers will be hosted by 5 Earth League member institutions:
· Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, Germany (1 position)
· Stockholm Resilience Centre, Stockholm University, Sweden (1 position)
· Centre for Earth System Science, Tsinghua University, China (2 positions)
· Earth system science centre, INPE, Brazil (2 positions)
· HZG/Climate Service Centre 2.0, Germany (1 position)
The Earth-Docs will form one international team carrying out their research within the Earth League World-Earth Systems program.
The International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) will function as a collaborative global hub for the Earth-Doc team, gathering the group of young scientists 1-2 times per year for joint scientific work sessions.
Each Earth-Doc will have at least 2 senior supervisors from the group of leading Earth League scientists leading the overall scientific program.
Applications should include:
· Cover letter
· CV
· 1-2 page vision on your perspective of the scientific challenge within Earth system modeling for global sustainability
· The names and contact information of two referees
· Indication of preferred host institution, from those listed above
For those interested in applying to Potsdam Institute for Climate Impacts Research (PIK), please follow this link.
Those interested in the position hosted at Earth system science centre at INPE must be aware that funding must be applied for separately, however this will happen with full support and guidance of INPE.
Applicants should have a doctorate in a related field, and fluent written and oral skills in English. Attributes should also include strong team building skills, intellectual leadership, and the ability and enthusiasm to travel as well as to work within an international network of scholars.
The Earth-Doc positions will start at different times this year, according to the timeframes of each host institution. Position duration and payments will also vary according to the conditions offered by the different institutions.
We are looking to create a diverse and rich team. Therefore, we encourage applications from all geographical backgrounds, gender affiliations, as well as those with disabilities.
Deadline for submission: 1st May 2015.
Please send submissions by email to: earthdoc@the-earth-league.org
For any queries, please contact the Earth League Secretariat using the same email address.
