PhD position in forest genetics Stift Skogsbrukets Forskningsinstitut, Skogforsk in Sweden

This PhD project at Skogforsk focuses on the genetics and reproductive development of silver birch , with the aim of improving flowering and seed production for birch breeding. The student will investigate how environmental conditions and cultivation treatments influence flowering in young plants and older breeding material, with particular attention to light conditions, plant development and genetic differences in flowering responses. The work connects fundamental questions about reproductive b...

Trees For Me is seeking a PhD student in forest genetics to join a research environment based at Skogforsk, in collaboration with the Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU). The doctoral project will investigate how flowering and seed production can improve silver birch breeding . By examining these reproductive processes, the research aims to support the development of more productive and resilient birch forests and contribute to sustain...

Postdoctoral position in Tropical Forest Ecology, Terrestrial Laser Scanning and Forest Biomass Dynamics at the University of Gothenburg , Department of Biological and Environmental Sciences (BioEnv), Sweden. This postdoc is part of TWIG , a five-year ERC Starting Grant project focused on tropical forest ecology, terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), forest biomass dynamics, forest carbon balance, and reproducible computational analysis. The project aims to combine repeated TLS with long-term forest...

Uppsala University is inviting applications for a full-time PhD student position in Limnology, based in the Department of Ecology and Genetics within the Limnology program in Uppsala, Sweden. The project focuses on modelling phytoplankton succession in lakes and understanding how lake communities respond to climate warming, eutrophication, extreme weather events, and other environmental changes. The doctoral researcher will use process-based biogeochemical and dynamical models, data handling, st...

PhD research in boreal raptor ecology and climate change is available at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Umeå, Sweden, within the Department of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies. The doctoral project will investigate how climate, prey dynamics, and landscape change reshape northern raptor communities. The research will develop predictions about ecological responses across boreal environments, with potential emphasis on population ecology, community ecology, and movement...
