Applications are being sought for a PhD Studentship on the topic of UK Child Welfare to be based in the School of Social Sciences ,Cardiff University.

The proposed project will explore this terrain of child welfare inequalities and variation between nations. The doctoral project will explore questions such as why the looked-after children rates are higher in Wales than those in England, even after taking account of the relatively higher levels of deprivation in Wales and how the social gradient, with children in more deprived areas more likely to be looked after or in the child protection system, is different in Wales from in the other four nations of the UK.
Cardiff University world-leading research was ranked 5th amongst UK universities in the 2014 Research Excellence Framework for quality and 2nd for impact.

The partner organisation is Social Care Wales, which is responsible for workforce development, regulation and improvement in the sector. Looked-after children are a research priority for the Welsh Government.

Potential research methods could include secondary analysis of administrative data, a practitioner survey and/or mixed-method research in local authorities. There is an expectation of at least some quantitative research as part of the doctoral project, so the successful candidate will either need to have these skills already or to have an appetite to develop them.

Application deadline 27 July 2017
Start date October 2017
Duration 3 or 4 years
Funding body ESRC
Level of study Postgraduate research
Award type PhD studentship
Number of studentships 1

The deadline for applications is Thursday, 27th July 2017. Further information and guidance on how to apply can be found here:

Post-Doctoral Research Opportunity: Economic Incentives for Stormwater Management, Environmental Management and Climate Change Resilience

Stormwater management (SWM) is today a major focus of environmental research across the nation. There is general recognition that reliance on “gray infrastructure” through the simple removal of stormwater via sewers fails to make cost-effective use of ecosystem services such as infiltration and evapotranspiration. Consequences include combined sewer overflows, higher stormwater management costs and ecosystem damage costs as well as excessive nutrient flows to streams, rivers and coastal waters. This has led to policy emphasis on green infrastructure to make use of ecosystem services to manage surface water flows and lower stormwater management costs.

There are a number of interesting interdisciplinary research topics in stormwater management for social scientists, planners, regional scientists, engineers, ecologists, geographers and others. Some of the current work in our laboratory is focused on analyzing economic incentives such as a stormwater retention credit trading program to motivate stormwater generators to install and maintain green infrastructure (GI), leading to increased cost-effectiveness of stormwater management through increased use of ecosystem services.  We are interested also in how economic incentives for SWM would impact other environmental dimensions such as the urban heat island effect, urban heating and cooling loads, restoration of urban tree canopies and other quality of life issues such as traffic calming and, psychological well-being.

As concerns over climate change grow, the Office of Research and Development (ORD) in the  USEPA has increased its attention to the social costs of alterations of local environments and ways to mitigate the effects of climate change. ORD has established an in-house research program in Safe and Sustainable Water Resources, an interdisciplinary program that is organized into four interrelated topics: Watershed Sustainability, Nutrients, Green Infrastructure, and Water Systems. It integrates economics, ecological management and engineering systems.

We seek a qualified economist or suitably trained scientist/social scientist to join the research team. Someone with a degree in another social science or ecology and familiar with microeconomics will be seriously considered. Quantitative and modeling skills are a must. Knowledge of the non-point source pollution control and familiarity with GIS would be a definite plus.                                                                              
The position is a post-doctoral fellowship funded through the National Research Council and its Research Associate Program. The appointment is for one year with the possibility of renewals up to a total of three  years, depending on funding. The announcement can be seen at http://sites.nationalacademies.org/PGA/RAP/index.htmby searching for the project title.

I know that most men, including those at ease with problems of the greatest complexity, can seldom accept even the simplest and most obvious truth if it be such as would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions they have reached perhaps with great difficulty, conclusions which they have delighted in explaining to colleagues, which they have proudly taught to others, and which they have woven, thread by thread, into the fabric of their lives.

Dear friends,


I'm working with a science advocacy group (https://www.factsma.org/) to provide science / social science based advice to policymakers. We're currently working in Massachusetts (though we may expand to other states). I've been asked to create a fact sheet for policymakers on what might happen to renewable energy projects if tax credits for renewables are ended. They'd particularly like something quantitative, and if possible they'd like it to be New England focused, though I told them that latter is a taller order.


Thus, my requests to the listserv are:


1. Can anyone share favorite sources that might be useful for this?


2. Would anyone be up for working with me on this? It would not be a large commitment; just to get this one-page fact sheet done.


Best regards,


-Sarah
