1 PhD student in the research education subject: Ecology

The effects of an invasive algal species (Gonyostomum semen) on the biodiversity and food webs of lakes.

Applications are encouraged for a 4-year PhD-student position focusing on understanding the effects of an invasive algal species (Gonyostomum semen) on the biodiversity and food webs of lakes. Extensive long term monitoring data show this algal species to be dispersing in lakes in southern Sweden. Once established the species often dominates the algal community and we anticipate profound changes in ecosystem structure and function.

Qualifications: An undergraduate degree in biology/limnology or other relavant subjects. Good skills in writing, experience of field work, and good knowledge of community ecology and aquatic food webs is meriting. Projected studies include both the analyses of long-term data and experimental field work. Written applications should include a CV, copies of exams and other relevant supplements, personal references, and a copy of your MSc. thesis.

Form for funding or employment: 1st year grant (utbildningsbidrag) and 20% employment, 2nd-4th year full employment (doktorandtjänst)
