🦫 Climate change has had only a minor impact on marmots near Davos – for now! Using a 40-year-old dataset, we resurveyed marmots along an altitudinal gradient. They now live ~86 m higher, but range margins are unchanged. More here: www.slf.ch/de/news/klim...

Klimawandel lässt Murmeltiere vorerst kalt
Murmeltiere leben heute höher als vor 40 Jahren – ihr Lebensraum hat sich durch den Klimawandel aber nicht grundlegend verschoben.

#ecojobs #ecology #Alps #AlpineEcology
The job Cooperating in the field of periglacial vegetation development with other Helmholtz centres, we offer a PhD position (f/m/x) to survey and analyse the development of vegetation and associated microbiomes in glacier forelands of the Alps. Your tasks • Collection of vegetation data in glacier forelands and surroundings • Collection of soil and root samples • Analyses of soil and root associated microbiomes through meta-barcoding • Analysis of the link between vegetation and microbiome development as a function of (successional) time • Scientific publications We offer A lot of things, but space does not permit. Please see the link for details. Your profile • Degree (Master, Diploma) in biology, ecology, geoecology or comparable courses of study • Experience in the field of vegetation methods (vegetation surveys) • Field work experience in soil and root sampling for microbiome analysis • Lab skills to analyse the microbiome like DNA extraction, PCR, and sequencing • Knowledge of the Northern Alpine flora • Experience in high mountains and the ability to hike several hours a day and 1000 metres in altitude with luggage and equipment • Orientation skills in the mountains • Ability to work independently and solve unexpected problems • Statistical skills (preferably in R), knowledge of data storage (databases) desirable • Very good knowledge of English (communication in the working group, reading technical literature, writing technical articles)

🌿 Thrilled to have hosted Margherita Tognela, a PhD student from @UniPavia, last autumn! Her work on plant traits helping alpine species survive climate change is groundbreaking. Plus, she’s uncovering how tundra fires impact Arctic plant regeneration - stay tuned for her findings! #AlpineEcology

I am still impressed, how much of what is written is still textbook knowledge and how much they knew already, back then.

🧬 Adaptation to cold is a major evolutionary force shaping alpine plants.
But biotic interactions, like herbivory, also play a role, even in the harshest environments. (9/9)

We're excited to be part of a project that harnesses the power of combining long-term ecological data with dynamic modeling to better understand species responses to climate and landscape change.
