PhD Position: Movement Ecology at Radboud University in the Netherlands. This PhD project studies how climate change and freshwater availability shape the year-round movements of migratory waterbirds, using the greater white-fronted goose ( Anser albifrons ) as a model species. The project connects a unique long-term individual tracking dataset with remote sensing products to examine how geese respond to snow cover, freshwater availability, breeding success, and changing temperatures across bree...
