Corso di laurea magistrale in
Scienze e tecnologie dei sistemi forestali

Vacancies for three PhD positions (4 years). Forest & Nature Lab, Ghent University (Belgium)
Forests are essential ecosystems that harbor rich biodiversity and deliver critical services to society such as
climate regulation. However, they are increasingly threatened by pressures such as intensive management,
climate change, and nitrogen deposition. We are currently offering three PhD positions that investigate
how interacting environmental stressors influence forest biodiversity. While each position is linked to a
distinct research project, they share overlapping teams, similar start dates, and a common research
environment. Therefore, we are advertising them jointly to allow candidates to express interest in one or
more positions simultaneously. The projects are:
1. Forest management and nitrogen deposition effects on soil biogeochemistry and plant
communities in temperate forests
2. Novel light regimes and drought effects on temperate forest plant biodiversity (CanopyChange)
3. Risks from climate change and biodiversity loss across systems and scales: Leveraging the potential
of tree-based solutions for adaptation in Europe (Trees4Adapt). This is a position with the Finnish
Meteorological Institute (Helsinki, Finland), Freiburg University (Germany) and the Natural
Resources Institute Finland LUKE (Helsinki, Finland), and other collaborators within the
Trees4Adapt project.   Deadline 9 June 2025 at 17:00h Central European time

Le foreste al centro della tesi - premio PEFC Italia. Bando PEFCItalia che premia con €500 le cinque migliori tesi di laurea dedicate al patrimonio forestale.
Le tesi presentate dovranno vertere sui temi della pianificazione, della gestione e della certificazione forestale in Italia.
