PhD Fellowship in Soil Fertility and Phosphorus Cycling University of Copenhagen in Denmark

An opportunity is being shared for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Adelaide University , based at the Waite Campus in Urrbrae, South Australia, Australia . The role sits within the Fertiliser Technology Research Centre and focuses on developing the next generation of fertiliser technologies. The project is highly interdisciplinary and sits at the intersection of microbiology , plant–microbe interactions , plant nutrition , soil science , and sustainable agriculture . It is a major collaborativ...

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...

New 2-year postdoc opportunity at the University of Copenhagen in the Department of Food and Resource Economics as part of the Convergence project “Beyond the Bite” . The project is cross-disciplinary and involves researchers from the PARAENVI Research group at the Department for Veterinary and Animal Science and the Natural History Museum Denmark . The postdoc will contribute to research on mosquito biodiversity and human/mosquito relations in changing Danish landscapes. Relevant academic inter...

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...

A PhD opportunity is available at The University of Adelaide (Waite campus) in a collaborative research project on phosphorus fixation in calcareous soils . The project sits within a broader effort to improve phosphorus use efficiency and increase the value of fertiliser inputs for growers managing high phosphorus-fixing soils. The PhD student will investigate how phosphorus behaves in calcareous soils, with a strong emphasis on soil and inorganic chemistry. Eligibility highlight: applicants sho...
