Eawag, the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology, is offering a Master’s thesis project in chironomid biodiversity across Swiss lakes. The project is linked to the Swiss National Assessment of Lake Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (SNALBES) , an initiative focused on building a stronger scientific basis for monitoring biodiversity in Swiss lakes and connecting research with conservation and management needs. The student will work with chironomids collected during the plann...

The University of Basel (Department of Environmental Sciences, research group Ecology) is recruiting a fully funded postdoc in ecological modelling focused on global change , mountain plant ecology , and species range shifts . The project will model the relaxation times of accrued lags of plant species across Europe’s mountain ranges using a spatially explicit dataset on species-specific shifts and lags over recent decades. The successful candidate will collaborate closely with team members and ...
