FW: PhD opportunity in alpine plant ecology - biologcial invasions and climate change - *deadline Feb 9th*

Dear colleagues,

 

Please help spread the word:

 

We have a vacant PhD position in plant ecology, linked to the RangeX project, assessing the drivers and biodiversity and ecosystem-level impacts of range-expanding species into alpine areas. The project is cross-disciplinary (plant ecology, soil science, pollination ecology) and comparative (experiments in Norway, Switzerland, South Africa and China).  Cool experiments, global datasets, new technological solutions, and a very good project team – what’s not to like?

The job is in Bergen, and our experiment is at Voss, with funding from BiodiversaPlus, and close collaboration with good colleagues and students in Switzerland, South Africa, Sweden, Denmark, France and China, so there will be a lot of international collaboration and opportunities for comparative studies across regions.

Link to our web pages where you can find descriptions of  the project and team :https://rangex.w.uib.no/
