PhD in Wildlife Disease, Disease Ecology, and Mathematical Modelling University of Warwick in United Kingdom

Funded PhD project at the University of Warwick (Midlands Integrative Biosciences Training Partnership) on modelling interactions between human and livestock movement and tropical disease ecology . The project is supervised by Dr Emma Davis and Dr Erin Gorsich and is based in Coventry, United Kingdom . This PhD sits at the intersection of biology , mathematical modelling , statistics , environmental science , and public health . The research focuses on nomadic pastoralist movement in Africa and ...

Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Ecological Stability at the University of Zurich , Department of Evolutionary Biology and Environmental Studies. This is a postdoctoral opportunity for an early-career researcher to develop and lead an original research programme on ecological stability, including the development and application of concepts and tools such as response diversity . The group led by Owen Petchey studies the determinants of ecological stability in temporal and spatial dimensions, u...

PhD opportunity at the University of Exeter in Mathematics and Statistics on whether forests are becoming more vulnerable to climate extremes . This project sits within the UNRISK CDT and combines satellite data analysis , statistical risk modelling , climate science , ecology , environmental science , and mathematical modelling . The research will use decades of satellite records of forest photosynthesis and carbon stocks to study how forests respond to heatwaves and droughts, how quickly they ...

PhD opportunity at the University of Leeds in spatio-temporal statistical modelling for extreme rainfall events , climate prediction, and rare-event analysis. This project develops advanced generalised linear/additive mixed models with covariate-dependent, dynamically estimated thresholds to improve prediction of when and where extreme rainfall will occur. The research sits within the UNRISK CDT and connects with work relevant to climate resilience , meteorology , data science , and high-perform...
