Postdoctoral Researcher - Demand4Restoration: Considering local demand for more effective Restoration in Madagascar
80-100 % :The Earth System Science group at the Department of Geography asks questions around the co-evolution of social-ecological systems, a fundamental step to place Earth System Sciences in the context of the Anthropocene. Such approach is by necessity interdisciplinary, given the multi-sectorial and complex nature of the problem. The ESS group develops and applies multi
- and interdisciplinary approaches to observe, describe, assess drivers, and model the interactions and feedbacks between Earth System spheres and the human system.
Forests sustain biodiversity, regulate climate, and deliver multiple Nature's Contributions to People (NCPs), making their persistence essential for sustainable development.
Past and ongoing exploitation has reduced forest extent and quality in many tropical countries, while profits have largely been exported to the Global North.
This has benefitted the economies in the Global North that now recognize the urgency of restoring tropical forests, often with the stated intention to support sustainable development.
However, tree-based restoration often ignores current land use, locally demanded NCPs, and local demands towards the practices applied in restoration interventions, especially when focusing solely on carbon goals.
The aim of the Demand4Restoration project is to systematically integrate restoration demand - which we define as the demand for restoration per se, for restoration at certain locations, for certain types of restoration practices, and for specific-NCPs as demanded by various local, regional, national, and international actors - into restoration science and practice.
Your responsibilities:
We are looking for an enthusiastic, creative, hardworking and independent researcher with a strong interest in linking science with practice.
You will have a central role in the Demand4Restoration project, co-coordinating a transdisciplinary and international team while leading the scientific work in Subproject A of the Demand4Restoration project.
Specifically, you will:
- Collect data on multiple NCPs on restored and unrestored sites using a mix of plotbased and surveybased methods.
- Collate date on social
- Lead research on testing how social
- Contribute to research assessing and mapping restoration demand of multiple actor groups.
- Play an active role in the coordination and implementation of a mediumsized Solutionoriented Research for Development (SOR4D) project with ten project staff based in Madagascar and Switzerland.
Your profile:
- PhD in Earth System Science, Geography, Environmental Sciences, Forestry, or Ecology.
- Expertise in one or several of the following areas: land system science, socialecological systems, restoration ecology, forestry, ecosystem services / NCPs, biodiversity science.
- Experience in one or several of the following methods: plotbased ecosystem service / NCP inventories, plotbased biodiversity inventories, quantitative interviews, participatory methods, statistical modelling.
- Advanced data analysis and visualization in R or Python.
- Capacity and willingness for field data collection with an interdisciplinary team under challenging conditions in rural Madagascar.
- Scientific curiosity and creativity to examine multifaceted and complex systems problems.
- An achievementoriented and openminded personality with a flair for project coordination and teamwork in international settings.
- English (Working language is English; knowledge of French and Malagasy would be advantageous).
What we offer:
We offer outstanding working conditions, a high quality of life in Zurich, and an excellent support environment. The position is based in the Earth System Science unit at the University of Zurich. Employment is limited to 3 years (until Employment conditions follow the attractive standards of the Swiss National Science Foundation.
Place of work:
Department of Geography, University of Zurich, Winterthurerstrasse 190, 8057 Zurich, Switzerland
Online interviews are foreseen for the 1st of March 2024.
Employment start date to be mutually agreed, ideally on the 1st of April 2024 or shortly thereafter.
