Job title Postdoctoral Fellow in Coastal Tourism, Environmental Economics and Coastal Development. Company Coastal Social-Ecological Millennium Institute (SECOS). Description of the job The Coastal Social-Ecological Millennium Institute (SECOS) is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow to join the Coastal Development social-ecological systems (SES) research group. The position focuses on economic and social-ecological analyses of coastal development, tourism, biodiversity, climate change impacts, and nature-based solutions, combining quantitative economic methods with fieldwork in coastal social-ecological systems. SECOS Institute is formed by a multidisciplinary team of scientists from several Chilean universities, focused on coastal sustainability. The Institute's main objectives are to understand global, regional, and local drivers of change; the social-ecological conditions that hinder sustainability; and to test and implement actions that unravel such conditions. The...

Job title PhD Studentship in Marine Ecosystem Net Value of Decommissioning Offshore Infrastructure. Company University of Aberdeen, School of Biological Sciences. Description of the job The University of Aberdeen is seeking a highly motivated PhD student to investigate the marine ecosystem net value of decommissioning offshore infrastructure, focusing on quantifying the ecosystem services disbenefit of residual mercury contamination and the benefit of its removal. The use of marine ecosystems is changing to achieve net zero targets in the face of climate change, with the decommissioning of petroleum platforms and the installation of wind farms. Contaminants associated with oil and gas platform cuttings piles or pipelines may become available for uptake, accumulating through the food web. Mercury is a naturally occurring metal associated with petroleum extraction and found in many North Sea fields. Mercury compounds are found as scale and residue inside pipes and...
