Dear All
The Research Centre for Ecological Change (REC) is looking for a postdoctoral researcher in the Analysis of Species Community Change for a fixed term of 2 years.
The overreaching aim of the Centre is to generate a coordinated analysis of long-term ecological data to understand impacts of global change. The project aims to unravel how populations and interactions between species are responding to ongoing environmental change, and takes advantage of the unique long-term datasets collected in Finland. The Centre also develops state-of-the-art methodology for analysing long-term spatially structured data sets within a joint species distribution modelling framework.
We are now seeking a postdoc to analyze how recent environmental change is reflected in the emergence of novel species communities. This work focuses on characterizing not only rates of change at the community level, but at the rate with which new types of communities – as not seen before – are being formed. The successful candidate will use Finnish time series on different organism groups to establish the rates with which ecological novelty is emerging, to compare rates among organisms, and to probe for drivers of novelty in both aquatic and terrestrial communities. Thus, the postdoctoral researcher will work at the interface of environmental monitoring, community ecology and applied statistics.

The deadline for applying is 16 January 2022.
