During summer the Centre for Environmental and Climate Research (CEC) are announcing six new research positions within the Strategic Research Area Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services in a Changing Climate (BECC).

Associate Senior University Lecturer in Ecological-Economic Modelling

The appointee will be expected to play a key role in CEC’s modelling team, leading the development and use of ecological-economic models, in collaboration with researchers at CEC and within the Strategic Research Area Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services in a Changing Climate (BECC) responsible for spatial models for land use, biodiversity and indicators of ecosystem services.

Associate Senior University Lecturer will also be active in outreach and stakeholder dialogue, developing contacts and collaboration within relevant organisations within the green sector, including authorities.

Closing date for application: 14 September 2017.

About BECC

BECC is a strategic research area which brings together over 200 researchers at Lund University and the University of Gothenburg. BECC brings together scientists from the natural and social sciences to perform research essential in understanding the impacts of climate change on biodiversity and ecosystem services on local, regional, national and global scales, to provide a scientific basis for the sustainable management of ecosystems and biodiversity.  We examine how human influence on climate and ecosystems affects biodiversity and ecosystem services from local to global scales and how this knowledge can be integrated into decisions on mitigation or adaptation to these changes.
