PhD Position (m/f/d; 65%) in the EU-project

EMYS-R: A socio-ecological evaluation of wetlands restoration and reintroduction programs in favor of the emblematic European pond turtle and associated biodiversity: a pan-European approach

Project background: Over the last 3 decades, the EU has funded numerous projects for wetland restoration in favor of the European pond turtle. Yet the results of these measures need to be more intensely promoted. A key question remains unanswered: what are the most effective wetland restoration methods suitable for sustainable maintenance and recovery of the European pond turtle and associated wildlife throughout Europe?

EMYS-R consolidates an existing international network of researchers and stakeholders to share complementary knowledge on past, present and future wetlands, biodiversity and their management. It is a 3-year participatory action-oriented research project based on seminal theories in humanities, social and natural sciences. It aims at testing the hypothesis that higher degrees of wetland restoration can compensate for limited capabilities of captive bred turtles to settle in the wild, and assess how specifically such conservation actions benefit society by bringing together people and nature.

Your tasks:

The successful PhD candidate will be involved in the ecological assessment of wetland restoration, turtle reintroduction and consequences on local biodiversity including non-target species. While based in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, the candidate will spend a substantial amount of time at the German and French field sites, and will also be traveling to trainings and meetings in Poland and Latvia, contributors of the EMYS-R consortium. More specifically, the successful candidate will conduct the following tasks:

Data collection: behavioral (animal-borne data loggers including GPS and time-depth-acceleration recorders), biometric/demographic (capture-mark-recapture protocols) and ecological (water, sediment, turtle-centered prey-predators feces samples) on the German study site in Neuburg am Rhein
eDNA Metabarcoding of environmental (water and sediment) and ecological (turtle prey-predator feces) samples
bioinformatic analyses of metabarcoding sequences for genomic biodiversity monitoring and food web analyses
Data analyses of existing and formerly collected time series on turtle behavior, biometry and demography
Support and then lead field sessions in Neuburg am Rhein
Support with public perception seminars and workshops in Neuburg am Rhein
Literature review on German-written grey literature about wetland renaturations and turtle reintroductions
Writing scientific publications, contributing to national and international conferences, as well as to internal reports and international guidelines

Your profile:

Master degree in Biology, Ecology, Environmental Sciences, or equivalent
Programming experience with manipulating large database (Metabarcoding sequences, behavioral long time series)
knowledge in R, MatLab and Linux desirable
Experience in the molecular genetic lab
Experience with Metabarcoding desirable
Mastering multivariate statistics
Interest in interdisciplinary approaches
Proven capabilities in implementing field protocols in remote places in autonomy and within a team
Able to team up within a large international consortium
Professional communication skills within the scientific consortium, but also with local stakeholders
Fluent (speech and writing/reading) in German and English
Ideally you are owner of the driving license B, are easy with wetlands and are able to swim

Salary and benefits are according to a full-time public service position in Germany (TV-H E 13, 65%). The contract should start as soon as possible – but no later than April 1^st, 2022 – and will initially be limited for 3 years.

Jobs in Wilhelmshaven

Ref.#02-21007 Scientist Position (m/f/d)

Job announcement ref. #02-21007

For over 200 years the Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung (SGN) represents one of the most relevant institutions investigating nature and its diversity. Currently, scientists from more than 40 countries across 11 locations in Germany conduct research in the fields of biodiversity, earth system analysis and climate change. The department Senckenberg am Meer (SaM) and the German Centre of Marine Biodiversity Research (DZMB) are located in Wilhelmshaven and are the northernmost locations of our association. They cooperate with important research establishments of the German oceanography as well as colleges and universities. Situated directly on the North Sea, Wilhelmshaven also offers local recreation in unspoilt nature and a wide range of cultural activities.

Within an integrated multi-partner BMBF-project called DAM (Deutsche Allianz für Meeresforschung) – CREATE (DAM Schutz und Nutzen – CREATE: Concepts to reduce the impact of anthropogenic pressures and benefits on marine ecosystems and biodiversity) for our section Marine Sedimentology at our Institute Senckenberg am Meer located in Wilhelmshaven we invite applications for a

Scientist Position (m/f/d)

(100 %)

Within “CREATE” the full-time scientist will be responsible for the subproject “Optimization of classification processes of hydro-acoustic seafloor data with respect to the habitat dynamics in marine protected areas of the North Sea” which is part of the work-package “Evaluation and optimization of spatial monitoring”.

For a sustainable conservation of the complex ecosystems, high demands on assessment and management by decision makers from politics, nature conservation, economy and tourism become necessary. This necessitates constant monitoring of the ecological status and structure of habitats. But because of the external anthropogenic and natural impact variability habitats are subject to dynamics, characterised by changes in morphology, substrates and their settlement structures, which are reflected, among other things, in their spatial variability.

One instrument for recognizing this dynamic is the regular area-based cartographic recording of marine habitats with the help of hydro-acoustic methods as part of underwater remote sensing. The often still manual and thus time-consuming conversion into maps of bathymetry and morphology as well as substrate characterisation requires trained personnel and standardised assessment criteria in catalogues that allow an equivalent comparison of time series. Main mission of this subproject is the improvement of current classification methods of hydro-acoustic seafloor data in order to their optimal use and degree of automation and their efficiency in the area of complex heterogeneous substrate structures. The results should help to optimise existing assessment procedures (e.g. Marine Strategy Framework Directive MSFD D6).

Your tasks:

Define spatial dimension and return intervals of measurements of bathymetry, sea floor characteristics, and hydrographic data inside the Natura 2000 areas in context with the other work packages
Prepare, organize and operate field measurements (hydro-acoustic and hydro-graphic measurements such as velocity, turbidity, suspended load) in the study sites as well as the granulometry of bottom sediments
Homogenize existing data sets of hydro-acoustic devices (side-scan sonar and multibeam echo sounder data) to given grid sizes
Test and evaluate automatic classification approaches – using individual datasets with the various classification/object identification algorithms for their detection quality and evaluation efficiency
Compile acoustic class distribution maps with ground truth data into habitat maps and to prepare of an effort analysis

Your profile:

Master’s degree in Geo-Science / Physical Geography / Geoinformatics
Experience with GIS, remote sensing techniques, data analysis of spatial data
Familiar with object-identification and classification algorithms/procedures
Familiar with programming tools (e.g. MatLab)
Experience with hydro-acoustic backscatter data
Base-knowledge in Sedimentology
Interest into interdisciplinary research collaboration
Interest into the interaction with policy and stake holders
Willingness to work off-shore and in the field

Salary and benefits are according to a full-time public service position in Germany (TV-H E 13, 100 %, weekly working hours: 40). The contract should start as soon as possible in 2022 and will initially be limited for 18 months.

Please send your application, mentioning the reference of this job offer (ref. #02-21007) before January 6^th, 2022 by e-mail (attachment in a single pdf document) and including a cover letter detailing research interests and experience, a detailed CV and a copy of your full academic certification to recruiting@senckenberg.de or use our online application form on our homepage www.senckenberg.de.
