Postdoctoral Position in Ecosystem Ecology
SLU is an international university, world class in live and environmental sciences. We are ranked among the Top 100 of ca 5,000 European universities. We have a strong research focus, but we also offer some of Sweden's most in-demand deucations; veterinarian, forester, and landscape architect.
SLU has close to 3,000 employees and some 5,000 students. Annual tornover is SEK 2.7 billion, and extivities are concentrated to the main campuses in Uppsala, Alnarp, Umeå and Skara.
Duties: The project will focus mainly on field locations in subalpine forested areas of western Sweden, which includes some areas that have historically been impacted by indigenous Sami inhabitants for more than 500 years (but which are no longer inhabited) and other areas that have never been impacted by Sami people. The main project that the postdoctoral researcher will work on involves exploring how historical habitation and land use in these mountains by Sami (in areas that are often currently presumed to be ?natural?) may have long term effects on ecosystem functioning both aboveground and belowground that are still apparent in the present day landscape. In addition to this work, the researcher will have opportunities to perform some fieldwork exploring belowground ecology and aboveground-belowground linkages in New Zealand and/or Australia during the northern winter.
Qualifications: The qualification for this position is a PhD in Biology, Ecology or Forestry, preferably completed in the previous three years.
Form of employment: Temporary employment
Starting date The intended start date is March 2011, although there is some flexibility around this.
SLU is an equal opportunity employer.
