PhD Position – Ecosystem Services and Climate Change in Mountainous Viticulture

July 11, 2024 by Sebastian Candiago Categories: News, Vacancies

The interdisciplinary research group of the Professorship of Ecological Services (PES), University of Bayreuth, is looking for a dedicated individual to join its team for the European funded project “RESPOnD – Climate resilient Alpine Wine Orchards” (Interreg Alpine Space Programme).

The selected candidate will focus on developing knowledge on key benefits and climate vulnerabilities of alpine wine orchards by working with various stakeholders in the wine sector. Responsibilities include modeling ecosystem services and climate change impact indicators, establishing the knowledge foundation for adaptive change pathways and resilience strategies in alpine viticulture. The role requires organizing workshops with stakeholders (e.g., wine growers and consortia) and traveling for project meetings in the countries of the Alpine Space.

The PhD position, starting 1 October 2024, or later, is offered for 3 years. For further  details please follow this link.

PhD position at ZALF: policy instrument design for climate change mitigation in agriculture

July 9, 2024 by Iskra Categories: News, Vacancies

The Leibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF) are currently looking for a PhD researcher to join the team, focusing on completing a dissertation within the research project ‘WetNetBB’. The specific emphasis of the dissertation is on designing and evaluating policy interventions to facilitate the rewetting of peatlands. The research will utilize behavioral economic theory and quantitative methods to gain insights into farmers’ behavior concerning paludiculture adoption and to evaluate tailored policy interventions aimed at supporting peatland rewetting.

Building Resilient Coastal Communities through Nature-based Solutions and Empowerment Tools

July 1, 2024 by Iskra Categories: News, Publications

EKLIPSE is happy to announce the release of the final knowledge synthesis report from the Eklipse Expert Working Group working on Nature-based Solutions and Empowerment Tools. This report was prepared by an Eklipse Expert Working Group (EWG) active from 2023 to 2024. The group undertook Rapid Evidence Assessment (REA) to synthesise the current state of the evidence concerning the role of Nature based Solutions (NbS) and community Empowerment Tools (ET) in addressing coastal challenges such as climate change across Europe.

Scientists reprimand EU decision-makers for rollback on the Green Deal and call for responsible decision-making

May 29, 2024 by Iskra Categories: News, Statements

In an open letter published on 29 May we join science associations and networks across Europe in criticising European decision-makers for a series of decisions that undermine the EU’s environmental agenda and international obligations, resulting in an overall attack on the Green Deal, on nature, and the future of EU citizens.

While EU policymakers claim that the measures are taken in response to farmers’ protests, we highlight that the decisions are poorly justified, do not address the problems they are claiming to solve, but at the same time, they go against substantive scientific evidence against them. We highlight the severity of rejecting the Sustainable Use Regulation (SUR), weakening basic environmental standards in the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), halting the final approval of the Nature Restoration Law (NRL), as well as the Commission’s proposal for exemptions in the Nitrate Directive, and the Commission’s decision to shelve the Framework for Sustainable Food Systems (FSFS).

Call to action: Europe for Nature

May 23, 2024 by Iskra Categories: Collaboration calls, News

Are you also deeply concerned by the decline of nature in Europe and worldwide, and its impact on current and future generations? Do you agree that it is important that people prioritise nature and sustainability in their decisions? If the answer to these questions is yes, then join your European colleagues in their communication to inform and inspire as many Europeans as possible to prioritise nature and sustainability in their decisions before the European elections.

You can easily support the EuropeForNature initiative by doing the following: [Read more…] about Call to action: Europe for Nature
