Kongens Lyngby, Lyngby-Tårbæk Kommune, Denmark DTU - Technical University of Denmark Full time
Position Summary

This postdoctoral position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research in biological oceanography and climate change. The successful candidate will work closely with our team to develop and apply underwater image and hydroacoustic technology to assess plankton life across different ecosystems worldwide.

The ideal candidate will have experience in fieldwork within biological oceanography and technical skills to run and modify equipment. Modelling skills are an advantage. We expect you to have flexibility concerning fieldwork and research stays abroad, ability to conduct research independently, good collaborative skills, strong interest in participating in an interdisciplinary and international research environment, and good communication skills in English.

Key Deliverables:

  • Develop and apply underwater image and hydroacoustic technology to assess plankton life across different ecosystems worldwide.
  • Publish generated data and results in the form of database entries, write scientific publications, and help establish an international database initiative to collect and archive marine life in a standardized form.
  • Contribute to the development of novel solutions to old problems related to climate change and biological oceanography.
