Recruitment for RECODYN at the Basque Center for Climate Change
As part of the Basque Centre for Climate Change (BC3), the Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Line, more specifically the group of ‘Biodiversity, Ecosystems and Global Change’ (http://danielmontoyalab.com/) which focuses its research on the effects of global change on biodiversity, community structure, ecosystem functioning and ecological stability, is seeking (more specific details of each position are provided below):
A Postdoc in Theoretical Ecology. The applicant will work on linking temperature-dependent community dynamics and metacommunity theory (Duration of the contract – 3 years, extensible).
Postdocs in Experimental Terrestrial Ecology (I). The applicants will focus on biodiversity, community structure and dynamics and ecosystem functioning in mesocosm experiments (Duration of both contracts – 3 years, both extensible).
Postdocs in Experimental Terrestrial Ecology (II). The applicants will focus on biodiversity, community structure and dynamics and ecosystem functioning in mesocosm experiments (Duration of both contracts – 3 years, both extensible).
A PhD student in Experimental Terrestrial Ecology. The applicant will work on the effects of warming and fragmentation on ecosystem functioning on terrestrial mesocosm experiments (Duration of the contract – 4 years).
A Technician in Experimental Terrestrial Ecology. The applicant will work on the sampling and maintenance of the mesocosm experiment (Duration of the contract – 4 years).
A part-time Administrative Project Officer The applicant will work in the administrative aspects of the project, including, among others, contracting, travel, accommodation, and purchases (Duration of the contract – 5 years).
Most of these positions are part of the ERC Consolidator Grant RECODYN “Ecosystem recovery dynamics and their response to climate change and habitat fragmentation” lead by Daniel Montoya. The project will adopt an integrative approach that combines the development of new theory in ecosystem recovery dynamics in close dialogue with a unique long-term terrestrial mesocosm experiment located in France.

We seek highly motivated and creative individuals with a good command of the English language and with expertise in the areas mentioned. Researchers will join a vibrant interdisciplinary research center of empirical and theoretical ecologists, computer scientists, economists and social scientists.
To apply, follow the application instructions of each job offer.
Review of applications will start immediately until the positions are filled.
