Postdoc in Seagrass Nursery Development and Restoration Ecology NIOZ Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research in Netherlands

NIOZ Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research is recruiting an early career postdoctoral researcher for the Department of Coastal Systems (COS) to help develop a pilot-scale seagrass nursery in the Netherlands. The project is closely tied to large-scale coastal ecosystem restoration in the Dutch Wadden Sea, where seagrass meadows have largely declined and restoration is being scaled up. The successful candidate will take a leading scientific role in developing and optimizing seagrass cultiva...

Postdoc opportunity at Utrecht University in ocean acidification and the marine phosphorus cycle. The project, PHOSFLUX, is an NWO-funded collaboration between Utrecht University and NIOZ that investigates how ocean acidification may alter CaCO3 fluxes, phosphorus cycling, ocean fertility, and CO2 uptake. The postdoctoral researcher will focus on biogeochemical modelling and develop a reactive-transport model for phosphorus dynamics in sinking and deposited marine snow. The work includes process...
