PhD opportunity in Environmental DNA and Biodiversity in Isolated Mountain Lakes at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG), Barcelona, Spain. This funded PhD project is part of the CRG International PhD Programme 2027 and is supervised by Dr Hannah Benisty. The project explores how isolated mountain lakes record environmental pressure in the DNA they shed, and how biodiversity signals can be used to predict ecosystem states. Research spans Pyrenean high-mountain lakes, thermal springs, and airb...

Postdoctoral Researcher position in ecological networks and biodiversity conservation at the University of Helsinki (Faculty of Biological and Environmental Sciences), based at the Viikki Campus in Helsinki, Finland. The role is part of the project ANEW – Arising Novelty in Ecological Networks , funded by the Research Council of Finland and Emil Aaltonen Foundation. The project investigates how novel ecological interactions emerge under global change, how they affect ecosystem functioning, and h...

Sapienza University of Rome is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for the HORIZON project NatureRestoreR , hosted in the Biodiversity & Global Change Lab . The project aims to develop flexible ecological modelling tools that can help EU authorities design and optimize effective nature restoration plans. The postdoc will work on species distribution modelling at fine spatial scales using advanced approaches such as nSDM and iSDM across Europe. The role is strongly quantitative and is well suite...

PhD position in atmospheric chemistry and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in rainwater at the Institute of Environmental Assessment and Water Research (IDAEA-CSIC) in Barcelona, Spain . The project, COVALLU , will investigate the occurrence and composition of VOCs in rainwater and their implications for ecosystem processes in Mediterranean environments. The work combines field observations, advanced chemical analysis, laboratory experiments, and data integration to better understand VOC cyclin...
