Eawag, the Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology, is an internationally networked aquatic research institute within the ETH Domain (Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology). Eawag conducts research, education and expert consulting to achieve the dual goals of meeting direct human needs for water and maintaining the function and integrity of aquatic ecosystems.
The Altermatt lab at the Department of Evolutionary Biology and Environmental Studies (IEU) of University of Zurich and the Department of Aquatic Ecology of Eawag has a vacancy for a
**PostDoc position in Spatial Ecology and Biodiversity Conservation in Switzerland (2 years)**:
- and policy-relevant products.
**The postdoc** will work with an extensive dataset that includes observations for over 20,000 species, high-resolution prediction maps (25-meter resolution habitat suitability maps for ~10,000 species across aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems), connectivity assessments, conservation prioritization layers, and comprehensive taxonomic information, including species traits, phylogeny, and species-to-NCP (Nature’s Contributions to People) relationships.
**This position** allows a high level of own ideas and contributions regarding scientific questions and themes covered, and development of independent questions that complement the initiative’s focus are specifically desired. We are particularly interested in fine-tuning and reassessing existing biodiversity models to better integrate local and mechanistic processes. Key research questions will explore the interplay of ecological processes across spatial and temporal scales, with a particular interest in placing greater focus on aquatic biodiversity and its links to terrestrial ecosystems. A central goal is to integrate these insights within the context of renewable energy infrastructure development, such as hydro, solar, and wind energy.
For the project, the Altermatt lab offers state-of-the-art infrastructure, access to high-performance computing resources, and an interdisciplinary collaborative network including collaboration with the research groups of Prof. N. Zimmerman (WSL/ETHZ), Prof. L. Pellissier (WSL/ETHZ), and Prof. C Graham (WSL/ETHZ).
**The Altermatt lab** has a shared base at University of Zurich and at Eawag. It offers a stimulating and international research environment, excellent research facilities and a lively and social working place. Zurich hosts many other research groups in ecology and biodiversity research and is among the world’s leading cities in terms of science, culture and quality of life.
**Eawag and University of Zurich **are both committed to promoting diversity and equal opportunities for underrepresented minorities, and to support the compatibility of family and work. Applications from women are especially welcome.
