The Climate- and Environmental Physics Division at the University of Bern is seeking applications
for two PhD positions in the area of modeling marine ecosystem-carbon-climate
interactions. The research projects will focus on quantifying und understanding past and
future changes in ocean extreme events, especially those associated with warming, acidification,
deoxygenation and nutrient stress as such extreme climate and weather events
can have strong impacts on marine organisms and ecosystems services. Both PhD projects
offer the opportunity to work with a comprehensive climate-carbon cycle Earth System
model and with novel satellite-based, in-situ physical and biogeochemical ocean observations.
The candidates will further develop... [Read More]

The general objective of the thematic school ASIAME is to bring together during two weeks young microbial ecologists (students and scientists) from South and South-East Asia that are focusing on marine ecosystems. The school will cover fundamental (biogeochemical cycles, biodiversity, environment) and applied (aquaculture, marine biotechnology) aspects. The format of the school includes communication, hands-on training, data analysis, preparation of research projects with the aim to create networks and foster future collaborations.

ASIAME 2 is a follow up of the first ASIAME course which was held in Vietnam in 2013. ASIAME 2... [Read More]
