Phd Position in Conservation Biology

vor 4 Wochen


Bern, Schweiz Universität Bern Vollzeit

The Division of Conservation Biology at the Institute of Ecology and Evolution, University of Bern, Switzerland, offers this position within the research project:
PROTECTION OF HIGH-ALPINE ALLUVIAL HABITATS RELEASED BY MELTING GLACIERS AS A CONSEQUENCE OF GLOBAL WARMING

The extremely rapid, and even accelerating, melting of glaciers in response to climate warming will pave the way for the formation of proglacial alluvial habitats in the Alps; these ice-free areas will gradually be colonised by pioneer species, followed by whole alpine communities via secondary succession, inducing changes in the composition and configuration of alpine landscapes in the long-term. However, the emergence of new subglacial alluvial habitats will also open opportunities for infrastructure development; for example, damming for hydropower production or water reserve retention (e.g., artificial snow for the tourist industry), or flooding for the same reasons, and/or management via heavy machinery (e.g., sediment removal) may all contribute to affect these habitats. The threats that human infrastructure represents to the conservation of the unique biodiversity values of subglacial alluvial landscapes are increasing driven by the rapid expansion of renewable energies in response to the emergent climatic and energy crises.
