Postdoc Opportunities in Freshwater Ecology in Luxembourg

Bournemouth University is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Assistant for the RESCUE project, investigating migratory fish ecology in the River Severn. The project focuses on the ecology, distribution and movements of European shads, sea lamprey and European eel. The researcher will contribute to a multidisciplinary programme involving Bournemouth University, the University of Southampton’s School of Geography and Environmental Science, Natural England and other partner organisations. The role ...

Charles Sturt University's Gulbali Institute for Agriculture, Water and Environment is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Fellow for the One Basin CRC project Confluences: Integrated Data for Fish and River Health Across the Murray-Darling Basin . The project addresses fragmented environmental datasets across the Basin and aims to improve how information is accessed, integrated and used to support river restoration and citizen science. The successful researcher will identify and secure access to di...

This research opportunity with the U.S. Geological Survey focuses on developing food-web models to better understand river management questions in the Grand Canyon segment of the Colorado River Basin . The project offers a mentored research experience in ecological dynamics, food-web processes, and water-resource conditions, with an emphasis on how environmental change and hydrologic conditions influence fish populations and food-web structure. Working with a supportive science team, the student...

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 ...

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...
