Department of Aquatic Resources (SLU Aqua)Climate change is impacting aquatic ecosystems worldwide, creating an urgent need for management strategies that strengthen ecological resilience and support sustainable use of aquatic resources. In this two-year postdoctoral project, you will use quantitative  evidence-based syntheses to identify how aquatic management can enhance ecosystem resilience to the impacts of climate change. This position offers opportunities for career development at the interface between ecological research and practical management through scientific publishing, conference participation, and stakeholder engagement. About the positionWe are looking for a postdoctoral researcher with a strong interest in evidence-based conservation and restoration ecology. The project combines fundamental ecological and evolutionary research with applied management science to address:Which management interventions most effectively increase resilience to climate change in aquatic ecosystems?How do dispersal, ecological interactions and evolutionary adaptation influence the success of climate adaptation measures?How can evidence synthesis be translated into practical decision support for environmental managers?You will apply systematic reviews, meta-analyses and other evidence synthesis methods to answer these questions. The work includes close collaboration with practitioners to ensure scientifically robust and practically relevant guidance for climate adaptation. The project is expected to result in scientific publications while directly informing evidence-based environmental policy and management.We offer a collaborative research environment with strong links between fundamental ecological research and environmental management. The successful candidate will…
