SLU Aqua (Öregrund, Sweden) is hiring – please spread this info!
PhD-student in Biology/Ecology:
Does global warming induce evolution in fish, and how to then fish sustainably?
We are looking for a motivated and enthusiastic person with strong quantitative skills in ecology or genomics, and a genuine interest in research & in learning to do research.
The PhD-project aim is to resolve how warming waters and fishing jointly induce evolutionary responses in fish, subsequent ecological consequences, and how fishing should be undertaken to be sustainable in the warming climate.
This position is a great opportunity to learn to do research and learn many skills, as you will do field experiments on fish responses to warming, genetic analyses of archived fish tissues from historical collections and of new samples, as well as use mathematical modelling of eco-evolutionary dynamics of fish and their prey to analyse their responses to warming and fishing. You will join our team working on the dynamics of fish communities and aquatic food webs, and their responses to climate change, exploitation and other human pressures.
