Postdoc Opportunities in Freshwater Ecology in Italy

Research Associate - Aquatic Ecology and Fisheries Research at Miami University is centered in the Wagner Lab and the Biology Department. The position supports research on anthropogenic stressors affecting aquatic ecosystems and fisheries, with a focus on climate change, emerging contaminants, invasive species, and land use change. The research associate will contribute to integrative, multidisciplinary work aimed at building a system-level understanding of the factors shaping aquatic ecosystems...

Eawag’s Department of Fish Ecology and Evolution is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to investigate fish migration and life history variation in anadromous Arctic charr. The project examines how glacial inputs shape fjord environments and how these environmental differences influence the ecology, movement patterns, foraging, phenotypic divergence, and local distinctiveness of Arctic charr populations. The research will compare populations using glacial-fed and tundra streams, fjords influenced ...

This postdoctoral project at the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW) focuses on how nitrogen moves through ecological systems and how stable-isotope tracing can be used to resolve the processes controlling nitrogen transformation, transfer, retention and loss. The researcher will develop and apply 15N-based approaches together with Orbitrap isotopologue and isotopomer analyses to build mechanistic understanding of nitrogen cycling across terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The work is i...

Fully funded postdoctoral opportunity in paleoecology and freshwater ecosystems at McGill University, Canada, in the Irene Gregory-Eaves Lab. The project investigates long-term freshwater community and ecosystem dynamics using lake sediment DNA (sedDNA). The research is suited to candidates interested in paleoecology, freshwater ecology, environmental science, sedimentary DNA, metagenomics, and ecosystem change over time. Applicants should hold a PhD in a relevant field, have a maximum of three ...

Senckenberg’s Department of River Ecology and Conservation in Gelnhausen, near Frankfurt, Germany, is recruiting two postdoctoral researchers in freshwater ecology and biodiversity monitoring. The positions are connected to two major projects: the Synthesis Center on Freshwater Biodiversity Change in Europe, which brings together more than 30,000 biodiversity time series from rivers and lakes across 30 countries and a network of over 200 researchers; and BEAGLE, a Horizon Europe project using en...

Three Quantitative Ecology Postdoctoral Positions are available at the University of Minnesota to join Drs. John Fieberg , Gretchen Hansen , and Jake Walsh on funded projects focused on the ecosystem effects of invasive aquatic plants and their management. The research is highly interdisciplinary and centers on quantitative ecology , causal inference , decision analysis , and ecological modeling. The projects will assess the benefits, costs, and ecological tradeoffs of aquatic plant treatments a...

Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) is advertising a postdoctoral researcher position in aerosol emissions from streams at the Department of Forest Ecology and Management in Umeå, Sweden . The project sits at the interface of atmospheric sciences , aquatic sciences , physics , and environmental engineering . The successful candidate will investigate whether and how streams emit aerosols to the atmosphere, with a focus on air–water exchange processes, bubble bursting, ice-nucleating...
