Paris, France: Postdoc, ecosystem modelling |
Postdoctoral position âModelling trade-offs and synergies among ecosystem servicesâ: Paris, FranceApplications are invited for a postdoctoral position at the French National Institute for Agricultural Research (INRA http://www.inra.fr/en/Scientists-Students). The successful candidate will be part of an interdisciplinary research project. TRUSTEE http://www.trustee-project.eu/ is a European research project aimed at disentangling the complex relationships between economic development and ecosystem services at different spatial scales. The objective of the postdoc project is to synthesize existing data on the relationships among multiple ecosystem services in a gradient of agroecosystems (France), and evaluate consequence of different scenarios of land use change for ecosystem service hotspots. In interaction with economists from INRA CESAER, the postdoc will analyze the causal factors of ecosystem service bundles. In interaction with a PhD student at INRA-SADAPT/ MNHN-CESCO, the postdoc will explore relationships between bird biodiversity and ecosystem services across agroecosystems. Approach is also shared with a postdoc (MNHN-CESCO) working at the European level. Publications will target high-impact scientific journals.
