PhD Opportunity in Population, Community, and Disease Ecology at University of South Carolina University of South Carolina in United States

Boston University’s Ecological Forecasting Lab is advertising two postdoctoral positions with Michael Dietze. The roles are aimed at researchers in ecology and environmental science who want to strengthen and apply quantitative , computational , and statistical methods to real-world problems. The post highlights an opportunity for candidates who enjoy ecological forecasting and data-driven research. The lab environment is described as a strong fit for someone looking to build skills in modeling,...

PhD position available with the Global Change and Conservation Computation Lab (GC3L) at the Missouri Botanical Garden and Washington University in Saint Louis, USA. The project focuses on integrating weather, not just climate, into conservation biogeography and climate vulnerability assessment. Research themes include extreme weather and species distributions, herbarium phenology and morphology data, climate cycles such as El Niño/La Niña, and restoration success. Applicants should have a quant...

PhD assistantship at the University of Wyoming for a project on disease ecology , virtual fencing , grazing management , and elk-cattle comingling . The research examines how virtual fencing may reduce the risk of brucellosis spillover from elk to cattle, with a strong field and quantitative component. The project is led by the Merkle Research Group in collaboration with the Wyoming Game and Fish Department, the Beyond Yellowstone Living Lab, and the Greater Yellowstone Coalition. Core research ...
