Sweden

This PhD project at the Department of Wildlife, Fish, and Environmental Studies at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Umeå investigates how boreal and mountain raptor communities respond to climate and environmental change. The doctoral researcher will study why some raptor species thrive while others decline as northern ecosystems warm. The project will combine long-term ecological datasets with newly collected field observations from northern Sweden and the Scandinavian mountai...

The University of Cambridge Department of Zoology is offering a funded PhD project in quantitative marine ecology focused on regional drivers of seabird population change and future resilience. The research will investigate why some seabird populations decline rapidly while others remain stable or recover. The project will examine how climate change, fisheries, and other environmental pressures interact to influence seabird survival, reproduction, and population dynamics across regions. The stud...

About this position

PhD research in boreal raptor ecology and climate change is available at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Umeå, Sweden, within the Department of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies.

The doctoral project will investigate how climate, prey dynamics, and landscape change reshape northern raptor communities. The research will develop predictions about ecological responses across boreal environments, with potential emphasis on population ecology, community ecology, and movement ecology.

The position provides an opportunity to combine ecological fieldwork with quantitative modelling. Doctoral research will address changing environmental conditions and their effects on raptor populations and communities, supported by advanced modelling training and international research opportunities.

Funding details

The position is fully funded for four years and includes a doctoral salary, advanced modelling training, fieldwork, and international research opportunities.

What's required

Applicants must hold a master's degree in ecology, biology, zoology, conservation, or a related field. Quantitative modelling and R experience are required, along with strong English skills and an interest in population, community, or movement ecology.

How to apply

Review the PhD advertisement and follow the application instructions on the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences website. Submit the required application materials before 24 November 2026.
