🌿 #PostDoc Alert! PhD in #EnvironmentalSciences? Proficient in #bioinformatic, #EcologicalModelling and good knowledge of trait-based #ecology🦋? Our #ConservationBiology group offers a PostDoc position in biotic and trophic interactions🐜: apply.refline.ch/273855/1769/... #UrbanEcology #ScienceJobs
Job offer: PostDoc in biotic and trophic interactions 90% (f/m/d) As part of the interdisciplinary PAPPUS project, which explores how plant communities and urban green space management support biodiversity and residents' quality of life, you will work with existing data. Your focus will be on analyzing biotic and trophic interactions between plants and arthropods, including predators, herbivores, pollinators, and detritivores. The data were collected from 60 public and private green spaces in Zurich. Your first task will be to analyse metabarcoding data from over 1200 invertebrate samples to generate a species lists. You will then examine the structure of mutualistic and antagonistic multitrophic networks, including food webs, and model their responses to urbanisation, management intensity, and plant preferences among residents. The position offers flexibility to develop your own research ideas within the scope of PAPPUS. You are expected to publish your findings in high-impact journals and present them at international conferences. Engagement with practitioners, especially through presentations and outreach in French, is also an important part of this PostDoc. You have a PhD degree in environmental science or in a related field. You have a good publication record as well as a background in ecological sciences and quantitative analyses. Proficiency in bioinformatic, metabarcoding, multitrophic ecology (food web), and ecological modelling is required, as is good knowledge of trait-based ecology. Practical and interdisciplinary experiences (e.g., with urban engineers) and knowledge of the principles and theories of urban ecology are helpful. You are ambitious, motivated and communicative. You are used to a high standard of independent, structured and you demonstrate a high level of team spirit. Proficiency in English and French, as well as good knowledge in German is required.

🎓 Huge congrats to Tidiane Seck on defending his Master’s thesis!

His research explored dam impacts on bird communities in northern Portugal — a key contribution to our understanding of human impacts on biodiversity!. 🦅

All the best for what’s next! 💫
