Funded PhD in Quantitative Marine Ecology and Seabird Population Resilience at the University of Cambridge University of Cambridge in United Kingdom

Cardiff University School of Biosciences is advertising an MSCA PhD studentship in the area of biotic interactions and response diversity , with a planned start in April 2027 . The project, led by Fredric Windsor (Senior Lecturer, Cardiff University), asks whether interactions between organisms can homogenise responses and reduce response diversity at the community level. The research will combine modelling and experiments , making it a strong fit for students interested in ecology, environmenta...

PhD opportunity at Bournemouth University on future-proofing the stock assessments of threatened Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) . The project sits at the intersection of biology , ecology , environmental science , and statistics , with a strong emphasis on quantitative analysis , statistical modelling , and environmental data science . The research will focus on England and Wales while addressing challenges relevant across the wider range of Atlantic salmon. It will use fishery-dependent and fish...

This postdoctoral position at La Rochelle Université focuses on quantitative ecology within a project developing a digital twin approach for marine ecology and conservation. The work builds on an existing simulation framework for individual movement trajectories and aims to move from individual-scale predictions to population-scale dynamics. The researcher will develop quantitative and statistical methods to aggregate simulated individual trajectories into population-level patterns of movement a...

Nottingham Trent University is recruiting two fixed-term researchers for the Eco-SEv project in ecosystem acoustics , a government-funded initiative focused on next-generation biodiversity monitoring technologies. The roles are based in the School of Animal, Rural and Environmental Sciences at Nottingham Trent University and involve work on acoustic monitoring, biodiversity assessment, and ecosystem health across agricultural, forestry, conservation, and natural environments. The project uses au...
