PhD Position in Phytoplankton Trait Diversity and Ecosystem Modelling Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences in Netherlands

PhD opportunity in phytoplankton trait diversity , ecosystem modelling , and lake ecology at the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW) in collaboration with Wageningen University . The project focuses on integrating diversity in phytoplankton resource acquisition traits into the mechanistic lake model PCLake+ to better understand how biodiversity shapes ecosystem structure and functioning. The research is part of the BILMo (Biodiversity Inspired Lake Modelling) project, which aims to impr...

PhD position in Integrating Trait Diversity into Ecosystem Models at the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW) , Netherlands. This PhD project focuses on plankton trait-based ecology , phytoplankton , lake ecosystem functioning , and ecosystem modelling . The successful candidate will investigate how inter- and intraspecific trait diversity affects biomass, productivity, and functional diversity in plankton communities, and how environmental change alters these processes. The wor...

PhD opportunity at Naturalis Biodiversity Center in Leiden, Netherlands to study pollinator modelling and monitoring within the EU-funded LIFE PolliNature project. The project focuses on quantitative ecology , biodiversity , and species distribution modelling to understand what drives pollinator occurrence in Dutch landscapes, including habitats, landscape elements, food resources, and host plants. The PhD student will also help design and carry out pollinator monitoring in intervention areas, w...

Princeton University’s High Meadows Environmental Institute is recruiting multiple Postdoctoral Research Associates in integrated hydrologic-hydraulic modeling . The position is with Prof. Gabriele Villarini and focuses on building an integrated framework to better represent interactions among physical processes, ecological systems, disturbances such as fire, and human and socio-economic systems. This opportunity is especially relevant for researchers in hydrology , hydraulic modeling , flood-in...
