🍃🌳🍂 #PhDAlert! MSc in #ForestEcology, #PlantPhysiology or #EnvironmentalSciences? Eager to apply a wide range of approaches, from #ecophysiology and experimental fieldwork to #RemoteSensing and modelling🛰️? We offer a #PhD position in Tree #Phenology: apply.refline.ch/273855/1788/... #ScienceJobs
Job offer: The Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research WSL is part of the ETH Domain. Approximately 600 people work on the sustainable use and protection of the environment and on the handling of natural hazards. The Research Unit Forest and Soil Ecology, which investigates how changing environmental conditions affect forest ecosystem functioning, is seeking a candidate to join the Ecosystem Ecology group starting on 1 January 2026 (or upon appointment) as a PhD candidate in Tree Phenology and Ecophysiology You will be working within the SNF funded project “From leaf-out to senescence: integrating daylight and temperature dynamics into phenological process-based models to enhance autumn phenology modelling”. Unlike leaf-out timing, leaf senescence is particularly challenging to predict, partly because many internal factors are involved and remain poorly understood. You will investigate how changing environmental conditions — including variations in temperature, daylight, and water availability — affect leaf senescence, with the goal of improving phenological models. To achieve this, you will combine manipulative experiments, long-term phenological observations, and large-scale remote sensing data. You will also apply both statistical and mechanistic modelling approaches and contribute to publishing results in international scientific journals. You hold a Master’s degree in in forest ecology, ecology, plant physiology, environmental science, or a related field. You are eager to apply a wide range of approaches, from ecophysiology and experimental fieldwork to remote sensing and modelling. You have a good command of English, work in a structured and independent manner, enjoy collaborating within a team and are comfortable using statistical software, preferably R. The workplace will be at WSL in Birmensdorf (approximately 20 minutes outside of Zurich), and the PhD enrolment will be at the University of Bern.

🌿🪲 #PostDoc Alert! PhD in #Biology or #EnvironmentalSciences? Strong background in plant-herbivore interactions and good knowledge in R programming? We offer a PostDoc position in the fields of #InvasionBiology, #Spectroscopy and #ChemicalEcology: apply.refline.ch/273855/1772/... #ScienceJobs
Job offer: PostDoc in “Invasion Biology, Spectroscopy, Chemical Ecology” 80-100% (f/m/d) You will join the FORSAID initiative which is seeking to establish a novel and comprehensive paradigm for identifying, observing and containing pest proliferations across Europe. As part of FORSAID, your research will focus on the invasive emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis, EAB) which has killed millions of ash trees outside its native range over the past 20 years. Given the advancing threat of the EAB in central Europe, it is crucial to implement effective screening and diagnostic methods. These methods are essential for two main purposes: the early detection of the beetle in European ash populations and the identification of ash trees with increased resistance to the pest. You will use controlled infestation experiments in biosafety greenhouses in combination with some field work to: (i) monitor the leaf spectral and metabolomic responses of ash trees attacked by EAB, (ii) use these response signals to distinguish EAB-induced stress from drought-related symptoms, and (iii) identify tree genotypes with enhanced resistance to EAB. You hold a PhD degree in Biology or Environmental Sciences and have a strong background in multivariate statistical analyses, chemical ecology, plant-herbivore interactions and experimental planning. Furthermore, we expect good knowledge in R programming, a good command of English, as well as strong skills in scientific paper writing.
