Postdoc Opportunities in Earth Science in Finland

The University of Oulu’s Faculty of Technology is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for a three-year project in hydrological and ecosystem modelling within the Water, Energy and Environmental Engineering Unit. The research investigates how hydrological and biogeochemical processes interact with terrestrial ecosystems and climate systems in Arctic and boreal environments. The researcher will develop and apply numerical models to simulate water and nutrient fluxes, carbon mobilisation and lateral ...

This postdoctoral position is based in the Global Change and Biotic Interactions Ecology group at the University of Oulu and is part of the Research Council of Finland-funded project “Mechanisms of Plant Biodiversity Change” . The project is led by Prof. Anu Eskelinen and focuses on understanding why plant biodiversity changes unevenly across space and in response to global change. The successful researcher will work on questions about the mechanisms shaping plant community change, including the...

The University of Oulu is recruiting a Postdoctoral Researcher for the General Education Research unit at the Faculty of Education and Psychology. The role sits within DATAVOID (From a Void to the Cloud? Data Centres in the Afterlives of Arctic Industries), an interdisciplinary research project examining how data centres emerge in post-industrial northern communities and how they relate to the legacies of earlier industries. The post is designed for a researcher who will develop a comparative st...

The University of Helsinki invites applications for two three-year postdoctoral researcher positions in coastal marine science within CoastClim , the Centre for Coastal Ecosystem and Climate Change Research. The first position focuses on coastal sediment microbial ecology and biogeochemistry . The researcher will investigate how benthic biodiversity regulates carbon processing in healthy and degraded coastal ecosystems, with potential work on microbial controls of sediment carbon mineralization,...

CoastClim at the University of Helsinki is recruiting two postdoctoral researchers in coastal marine science. The positions sit within the Centre for Coastal Ecosystem and Climate Change Research, a strategic collaboration between the University of Helsinki and Stockholm University. The researchers will be based at Tvärminne Zoological Station, joining an international and interdisciplinary environment that combines marine ecology, biogeochemistry and atmospheric science. The overarching researc...

The Turku Collegium for Science, Medicine and Technology (TCSMT) at the University of Turku invites applications for four junior group leader positions and four postdoctoral researcher positions in science, medicine and technology. The appointments are based in Turku, Finland, and support independent or collaborative research within the University's multidisciplinary STEM and health research environment. Research areas may include biology, biochemistry, bioinformatics, biomedicine, biomedical en...

The Turku Institute for Advanced Studies (TIAS) at the University of Turku in Finland invites applications for four Postdoctoral Fellow positions and four Collegium Fellow positions. Fellows will design and conduct an independent three-year research project within one of TIAS’s faculties: Economics, Education, Humanities, Law, or Social Sciences. The fellowship programme supports interdisciplinary research connected to digitalisation and new technologies, health and drug development, children an...

University of Oulu is advertising a Postdoctoral Researcher position in Ecology and Genetics , within the Global Change and Biotic Interactions Ecology group led by Professor Anu Eskelinen . The project is funded by the Research Council of Finland and focuses on mechanisms of plant biodiversity change . The research is centered on how plant biodiversity responds to global change drivers such as climate warming , nutrient enrichment , competition, herbivory, dispersal, seed banks, and intraspecif...
