**Investigating the effects of climate extremes on aboveground-belowground interactions**:
Extreme climatic events, such as heat waves and extreme droughts are major threats to terrestrial biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. Terrestrial biodiversity is composed of aboveground and belowground subsystems, between which various types of biotic interactions take place. Yet, how such biotic interactions change with climate extremes, and how alteration in aboveground-belowground interactions affect terrestrial biodiversity are little known. Using a combination of outdoor (a newly built research facility) and indoor experiments, Terrestrial Ecology Group at the University of Bern (Switzerland) aims to investigate how periodic heat waves and extreme drought events affect aboveground-belowground interactions by studying food webs. Here is a paper that provides background on some basic ideas of this project:
1) Experience in soil microbial ecology-preferably a MSc thesis on soil microbial (bacteria or fungi or both) responses to global change factors.
2) Strong interest or experience in grassland plants and/or terrestrial insects.
3) Strong interest or experience in conducting experiments.
4) Good knowledge of data-analysis and ability to code in statistical software platforms like R.
