Tätigkeitsbeschreibung
This position is offered in a DFG-Project within the framework of the Biodi-versity Exploratories (http://www.biodiversity-exploratories.de/). It will (1) in-vestigate the relationships between forest diversity and carbon cycling under gradients of forest management and deer browsing and (2) explore the rele-vance of tree traits and trait correlations therein. The main research tool will be a coupled forest succession-carbon cycling model. The work will involve model development, extensive model parameterization using forest inventory datasets and limited additional field campaigns. There will be a close col-laboration with three partner PhD-projects within the Biodiversity Exploratory additional modeling component (BEAM).
Anforderungen
The applicants should have a background in ecology, forestry or environ-mental sciences, strong quantitative skills, proven programming experience and the ambition to publish in international journals. Proficiency in advanced statistical methods would be a plus. They should be excellent team-players and fluent in English.
Vergütung
Salary and benefits are commensurate with those of public ser-vice organizations in Germany.
Bewerbung
For best consideration, please send your application, including a statement of your research interests and qualifications, curriculum vitae, copies of your certificates, and contact details of three academic referees.
The Max-Planck-Society seeks to increase the number of women in those areas where they are underrepresented and therefore explicitly encourages women to apply. The Max-Planck-Society is committed to employing more handicapped individuals and especially encourages them to apply.
Bewerbungen sollten bis zum 15. Februar 2008 eingehen.
