[ECOLOG-L] Ecology Postdoc with Jonathan Levine at ETH Zurich
Ecology Postdoctoral Position in Jonathan Levine’s group at ETH Zurich A two year postdoctoral position in ecology is available in the research group of Jonathan Levine at ETH Zurich, with a flexible 2014 start date. In collaboration with Levine, the successful candidate will develop a project combining empirical and theoretical approaches to explore questions in plant population and community ecology. The research focus is flexible and those with plant, non-plant, or theoretical backgrounds are encouraged to apply. Research in the Levine group focuses on three general problems: (1) the maintenance of species diversity in communities, (2) the determinants of the success and impacts of biological invasions, and (3) plant community responses to climate change. Our coexistence projects explore how individual variation, community drift, plant traits, and phylogeny influence the outcome of competitive interactions. Our invasions projects explore the role of landscape patchiness, rapid evolution, and genetic variation in influencing invasion success. Our climate change projects ask how changing competitor identity influences plant species response to warmer climates, and how phenological shifts with climate change alter population trajectories and opportunities for coexistence. All projects combine empirical approaches with mathematical theory to achieve their aims. The postdoc will have the opportunity to conduct fieldwork in Europe, California, and elsewhere. Work-related interactions will be in English. The Levine group currently includes five postdoctoral researchers, one graduate student, and three project managers. Outstanding research groups at ETH Zurich www.ibz.ethz.ch/people/index and the adjacent University of Zurich www.ieu.uzh.ch/staff/staff.php offer numerous opportunities for interaction and collaboration. Also in Zurich are WSL- the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research, WSL, and Eawag- the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology. Your application includes a research statement including one to two paragraphs describing the type of projects of interest, a curriculum vitae, and the contact information for three references. Application review will begin January 13, 2014, and continue until the position is filled. To submit your application, visit https://pub.refline.ch//845721/2873/++publications++/1/index.html
