NIOZ Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research is recruiting an early career postdoctoral researcher for the Department of Coastal Systems (COS) to help develop a pilot-scale seagrass nursery in the Netherlands. The project is closely tied to large-scale coastal ecosystem restoration in the Dutch Wadden Sea, where seagrass meadows have largely declined and restoration is being scaled up. The successful candidate will take a leading scientific role in developing and optimizing seagrass cultiva...
