Two Doctoral Positions in Tropical Forest Ecology, Animal-Plant Interactions and Forest Restoration ETH Zürich in Switzerland

Eawag, the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology, is offering a Master’s thesis project in chironomid biodiversity across Swiss lakes. The project is linked to the Swiss National Assessment of Lake Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (SNALBES) , an initiative focused on building a stronger scientific basis for monitoring biodiversity in Swiss lakes and connecting research with conservation and management needs. The student will work with chironomids collected during the plann...

Eawag, the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology, is offering a Master’s thesis project in freshwater ecology , evolutionary dynamics , biodiversity , and ecosystem functioning focused on subarctic lakes in Greenland. The project is hosted by the Department of Fish Ecology and Evolution (FishEc) and contributes to a newly funded Swiss National Science Foundation project on eco-evolutionary community assembly in subarctic lake ecosystems. The research context is especially exc...

EPFL in Lausanne, Switzerland is offering a full-time PhD position within the Plant Ecology Research Laboratory (PERL) focused on forest ecophysiology , remote sensing , forest ecology , and plant responses to drought . The project will study how forest canopy temperature and spectral properties reflect tree physiological responses to increasing atmospheric drought and soil water limitation. The research combines field ecophysiology, forest drought experiments, thermal and spectral remote sensin...

Eawag, the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology, is advertising 3 PhD positions in Evolutionary Ecology , Evolutionary Genomics , and Ecosystem Science within the Department of Fish Ecology & Evolution (FishEc). The project is part of a recently funded Swiss National Science Foundation grant and will investigate how biotic and abiotic selection pressures shape species interactions, community assembly, and ecosystem functioning in lakes of Southern Greenland . The research fo...

Sapienza University of Rome is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for the HORIZON project NatureRestoreR , hosted in the Biodiversity & Global Change Lab . The project aims to develop flexible ecological modelling tools that can help EU authorities design and optimize effective nature restoration plans. The postdoc will work on species distribution modelling at fine spatial scales using advanced approaches such as nSDM and iSDM across Europe. The role is strongly quantitative and is well suite...
