We are seeking two enthusiastic, highly motivated candidate ecologists with a strong and proven interest in aquatic ecology and/or ecosystems ecology. You should have an MSc degree (or equivalent) in ecology, microbiology, environmental sciences, or a related field, and be willing to spend approximately 6 months in Landau (Germany). You are pro-active, curious, results-oriented with attention to detail, and can perform well in a project team. We specifically look for persons with an appetite for experimental work. PhD candidate 1 requires a driving licence to be able to travel to field sites. Previous experience with experiments, molecular techniques (DNA extractions, qPCR) and biogeochemical analyses (Greenhouse gas measurements, porewater and sediment analyses) is preferred. For the position of PhD candidate 2, previous experience with modelling, or the willingness to learn this, in programming languages such as R, Python or Matlab would be an asset. The successful candidates for both positions have experience with the statistical analysis of ecological data sets, and are keen to develop expertise in multivariate statistics and ecological modelling. You need to be proficient in written and verbal English.
