Call for proposals
In 2023, the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW) established the Antisemitism Research
Group, which aims to conduct comprehensive research into contemporary antisemitism in
Austria in an institutionalized form.
The ÖAW is inviting applications for 2026 fellowships at all career levels (from pre-doctoral
level). The aim of the fellowship is to close research gaps in the field of research on
antisemitism in Austria.
The call for proposals focuses on projects that deal with manifestations and actors of
antisemitism in Austria or with the reactions and/or defensive measures of Jewish and non-
Jewish actors. The connection to Austria must be given in any case and the focus should be on
the period from 1945 to the present.

- Original research publications in leading international journals and presentation in international conferences are expected.
- Fostering cooperation with other research groups at the institute.

Your Tasks
- Extension of the existing approach to general harmonic and stochastic broad-band sources
- Inclusion of time-frequency representations into the algorithm

Your Tasks
- Focus on developing an exploratory landscape evolution model (LEM) and on collectively investigating (with the CHLS team) how climate change and human activities shape the landscape.
- Integrate mountain hazard processes (e.g. landslides, debris flow) into a LEM.
- Design your own research in the context of LEM in line withthe objectives of the CHLS research groupand publish results in peer-reviewed journals.
- Interdisciplinary collaboration within the CHLS team to enhance the conceptual model for the analysis of coupled human-landscape systems in mountain areas (Hossain et al. 2020). This includes the identification of crucial couplings and interactions within the biophysical dimension on different spatial and temporal scales.
- Contribute to a numerical prototype of a coupled human-landscape model, grounded in our conceptual framework and case-study sites. Socio-economic dynamics are covered by another postdoc focusing on agent-based modeling.
- Seek out and contribute to proposal writing efforts to secure third-party funding for further research within the group.
