Doctoral Researcher in Biochar–Fertilizer Combinations for Tree Seedling Growth (PhD) University of Helsinki in Finland

Universitat de Lleida is advertising a PhD position focused on reducing nitrogen pollution in double-cropping farming systems. The project combines on-farm trials and crop/soil measurements, including soybean + fertigation with pig slurry, nitrate leaching, N2O emissions, and ammonia volatilization. A key modelling component is parameterizing the STICS crop model for double-cropping systems. Ideal applicants should have a Master's degree (300 ECTS) with a 7.0/10 average in Agriculture, Soil Scie...

PhD opportunity at Mississippi State University in the Weed Science Research Group for a project on the environmental fate of herbicides in agricultural systems. The research will examine how herbicides persist, move, and transform under field and controlled conditions, with emphasis on herbicide sorption/desorption in soils , degradation kinetics (biotic and abiotic), and transport processes such as leaching, volatility, and runoff. The position includes both laboratory and field-scale experime...

PhD opportunity at Universitat de Lleida, Spain in agricultural and environmental research focused on double-cropping systems. The project involves run-on-farm trials mixing soybean + fertigation with pig slurry in double-cropping systems, with measurements of nitrate leaching , N2O emissions , and ammonia volatilization . A further component is to parametrize the STICS crop model for double-cropping systems, making this a strong fit for students interested in crop systems, soil science, nutrien...
