Job Opportunity

Aarhus University invites applications for a postdoctoral researcher position in marine ecosystem services. The successful candidate will work on a 3-year project focusing on the development of methods for monitoring, modeling, and assessing the biodiversity gained through marine restoration projects.

The research will contribute to the development of a standardized assessment framework to efficiently quantify achieved Ecosystem Services (ES) and make them comparable across different restored habitats. The postdoctoral researcher will collaborate with 2 PhD projects to develop tools to efficiently monitor and quantify a range of ES's associated with marine restoration projects.

Responsibilities will include:

  1. Field-based monitoring using both conventional and molecular techniques.
  2. Investigations in different restored habitats (seagrass meadows, kelp forests, mussel reefs).
  3. Collaboration with the marine biodiversity monitoring group and the marine model group at the department, as well as external partners.
  4. Contributing to strengthen the competences of the Danish national center for marine restoration.

The ideal candidate should have a PhD in marine ecology, biology, environmental sciences, or similar. We expect that you have expertise in benthic ecology and biodiversity, experience with marine restoration, and publications in high-ranking journals. Good collaboration skills, ability to work in an interdisciplinary team, and very good knowledge of English are also essential.
