Wageningen University & Research is seeking a PhD candidate to investigate how forest carbon uptake is changing worldwide under climate change and disturbance. The project examines the global carbon sink in forests and its role in removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The researcher will combine atmospheric carbon dioxide observations, Earth Observation products, and numerical models to quantify forest carbon balances across continents and time scales ranging from days to decades. The wor...

The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center’s Environmental Laboratory (EL) offers a research appointment within a broad environmental science and engineering environment. As one of seven laboratories in USACE-ERDC, EL focuses on solving environmental challenges for the U.S. Army, the Department of Defense, and the nation through applied research and development. Participants will work under the guidance of a mentor in a real-world laboratory setting and gain hands-on experience with ...

The STRI D. Ross Robertson Shore-Fish Fellowship supports predoctoral PhD students carrying out field research on the evolution, ecology, and natural history of marine and brackish-water fishes . The fellowship is based at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI) in Panama , placing the awardee in a strong tropical research setting focused on nearshore marine systems. This fellowship is designed for projects on shore fishes in nearshore tropical and subtropical waters . It is a one-yea...

A fully funded PhD opportunity is available in conservation ecology at the University of Waikato, New Zealand . The thesis, titled “Fuel for Recovery: Using food-web science to improve translocation success of threatened birds,” will investigate how food-web science can support the conservation and successful translocation of threatened bird species. The project is associated with the Invertebrate Behavioural Ecology and EcoDiv Labs and will be supervised by Dr. Chrissie Painting . Research inte...

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...

Radboud University in the Netherlands is offering a PhD position in movement ecology within the Department of Ecology and the Radboud Institute for Biological and Environmental Sciences. The project investigates how climate-driven changes in freshwater availability affect the year-round movements of greater white-fronted geese. The research will combine long-term GPS tracking data from more than 200 geese, remotely sensed environmental datasets and statistical modelling. Key topics include snow ...
