Offer Description
CREAF is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to work on the project PLA NATURA BARCELONA (Collaboration in the deployment of the Pla Natura of the city of Barcelona) with ref. 2023 CLIMA 00118 and funded by Barcelona City Council.
The project aims to facilitate the exchange of experiences between CREAF and Barcelona City Council for the deployment of the Plan Natura 2030 of the city of Barcelona, where high population density has led to a severe loss of biodiversity and the provision of essential ecosystem services for the well-being of the city's citizens. The Plan Natura Barcelona 2030 aims to redress this situation by increasing the city's green infrastructure to maximise its services, and by promoting urban biodiversity, protecting species and improving habitats and their connectivity.
CREAF collaborates in this Plan by advising municipal managers in decision-making and deploying specific projects, such as the monitoring network of the urban butterflies of Barcelona (uBMS), the monitoring of the biological control of the pine processionary (Thaumetopoea pityocampa) in urban forests and the analysis of the role of vegetation in reducing air pollutants.
A part-time contract is offered (18 hours per week) with immediate incorporation after selection, with a duration of 12 months, with the possibility of extension if the project is consolidated. The salary offered is €1273.90 gross per month.
TASKS
Coordination of various urban ecology projects developed with the city council and the metropolitan area of Barcelona:
- Analysis and management of exotic plants in the city of Barcelona.
- Analysis of the effects of drought on urban greenery.
- Monitoring of butterflies in the parks of the city of Barcelona.
- Monitoring of the biological control of the pine processionary in the parks of Barcelona.
