The Post Doc position is on modeling of life history strategies and
annual routines of copepods. Our modeling work is motivated by the
ability of mechanistic models to look beyond what can be learnt from
observed correlations and predict biological responses to environmental
change scenarios. The candidate must have a PhD, or equivalent degree,
in biology, computer science, or related fields. We look for individuals
with experience from quantitative approaches to ecology, including
programing skills, and that are familiar with life history theory,
optimization models or individual based models.
Kind regards, Øystein Varpe
