PhD fellowship in Phytoplankton evolutionary ecology
PhD Project in Phytoplankton evolutionary ecology
Department of Biology
Faculty of SCIENCE
University of Copenhagen
The Department of Biology invites applicants for a PhD fellowship on Anthropogenic impacts on Phytoplankton ecology and evolution.
Start date is (expected to be) 01.03.2024 or as soon as possible thereafter.
The project
In the Anthropocene freshwater ecosystems are faced with a number of challenges, rising temperatures, differentially altered elemental availability, salinisation and more. These changing abiotic parameters can impose threats to aquatic organisms, such as phytoplankton. However, many organisms posess the ability to adapt to changes in the environment, leading to resilience. This PhD project will experimentally explore short-term physiological and ecological responses to anthropogenic threats of key phytoplankton groups. A focus will be to understand implications for short-term and long-term evolutionary processes as well as inter- and intraspecific ecological interactions. This research will help address the need to understand the differential response of phytoplankton key-ecological groups to anthropogenic threats and its implications for lake ecosystems.
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for candidates within the field(s) of Ecology, Limnology or Marine Biology. It is an advantage to have previous work or research experience in phytoplankton culturing techniques. Experience with large-scale experimental-design and executation is also advantageous. The candidate should have a curious and creative mind-set with a strong interest to work with organisms and in the field. It is also necessary to possess excellent data analysis, communication, presentation, and academic writing skills in English.
Our group and research- and what do we offer?
The Freshwater Biology Section is part of the Department of Biology, Faculty of SCIENCE, University of Copenhagen. We are located in Copenhagen.
The history of the Section for Freshwater Biology dates back to 1897 and is thus founded on strong scientific traditions. Our research answers questions related to patterns in biological diversity, adaptations of organisms in relation to their environment and the structure and ecological processes in streams, lakes, wetlands and coastal waters. Together with our extensive network of external collaborators, both nationally and internationally, we focus on research with a timely focus on current challenges related to e.g. climate change, land-use and nature management. Research approach covers field experiments and surveys, and experimental setups in the lab. The section comprises research and teaching of staff members, laboratory technicians, Post Docs, PhD candidates and MSc and BSc students. Research infrastructure includes modern laboratory facilities equipped with extensive hardware for analysis of samples, various gear and vessels for field sampling, a state-of-the-art greenhouse and temperature-controlled rooms.
We offer creative and stimulating working conditions in dynamic and international research environment.
Principal supervisor isAssociate professor Dean Jacobsen. Co-Supervisor is Tenure Track assistant professor Jana Isanta Navarro [email protected].
