The Action Request aims to support the Government of Panama in harmonizing its regulatory framework for the conservation and sustainable use of mangroves. In this context, the Action Request – Implemented by IPOS in collaboration with Panama’s Ministry of Environment and through a Hybrid Working Group composed of experts and key stakeholders – will seek to mobilize the best available scientific, legal, and socioeconomic knowledge to develop public policy options tailored to the national context. The Local Facilitator is the local anchor of the Action Request and supports its effective implementation on the ground. Working in collaboration with the IPOS Project Manager (PM) based in IPOS headquarters in Paris, the Local Facilitator ensures that the Hybrid Working Group (HWG) that will be composed to work on the project operates smoothly, inclusively, and in close connection with Panamanian realities. The role blends facilitation, coordination and practical support. Key...

Job title Doctoral Researcher / Ocean Modeller. Company Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI), Marine Dynamics Group, Marine Research Unit. Description of the job The Finnish Meteorological Institute (FMI) is seeking a doctoral researcher for a fixed-term contract in the Marine Dynamics Group of the Marine Research Unit. The main duties are in the DTO4OWE (Digital Twin of the Ocean for Offshore Wind Energy) project funded by the Sustainable Blue Economy Partnership, which brings together institutes from 9 different countries to study Digital Twins of the Baltic and North Seas for Offshore Wind Energy. The main task is numerical modelling of the Baltic Sea to study the effects of offshore wind energy. This will include development and validation of the NEMO ocean model for the Baltic Sea. Other tasks can potentially include, depending on interests and skills, development of machine learning and deep learning based methods to assess the effects of offshore wind...

Job title PhD Candidate in Parasite and Plankton Behavioural Biology and Ecology. Company Department of Biology, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). Description of the job The Department of Biology at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim offers a PhD position at the Marine Sciences section, within the research group "Fish parasites, health and welfare". The PhD project will focus on behaviour and ecophysiology of sea lice and selected zooplankton species. There is a large focus on the parasitic salmon louse, as it causes large problems for the Norwegian aquaculture industry. The group collaborates closely with the aquaculture industry through the "Research platform Taskforce salmon lice" and works with a variety of research projects. In addition to salmon lice, the group focuses on fish health and welfare, as well as zooplankton biology and ecology. The project will include methodological developments as well...

Job title PhD Candidate in Seaweed Hydrodynamics. Company Department of Marine Technology, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). Description of the job The Department of Marine Technology at NTNU offers a fully funded PhD position in the field of hydrodynamic loads on seaweed and macro algae. The application of the research is towards industrialization of seaweed production in general, and design of floating seaweed production facilities in particular. The main cost of a seaweed farm is the longlines, which there may be hundreds of kilometers of. The seaweed grows on the longlines and is exposed to waves and current at various stages of growth. The hydroelastic behaviour of the seaweed is not sufficiently well understood, and hence there are no good hydrodynamic load models. The purpose of this work is to increase the understanding of longlines with seaweed under sea loads and develop accountable hydrodynamic load models. The position is part...

Job title PostDoc Position in Cellular Signaling in Photosymbiosis. Company Helmholtz Institute for Functional Marine Biodiversity (HIFMB), in institutional cooperation between the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) and the Carl von Ossietzky University in Oldenburg. Description of the job HIFMB is seeking a curiosity-driven postdoctoral researcher to join the newly established Photosymbiosis Focus Group. The candidate will combine state-of-the-art OMICS approaches, cell biology, and advanced imaging to dissect the cellular signaling and regulatory networks that control photosymbiosis between cnidarian hosts and their microalgal symbionts. Photosymbioses between heterotrophic hosts and phototrophic endosymbionts have played central roles in the radiation of complex life and are critical to global nutrient cycles. Yet, global change is pushing these symbioses and the ecosystems they support to the brink of ecological collapse. This position is embedded in the...

The Renewables Grid Initiative is a unique collaboration between NGOs and transmission system operators (TSOs) from across Europe, engaging in an ‘energy transition ecosystem- of-actors’. We promote fair, transparent and sustainable grid development to enable the growth of renewables to achieve full decarbonisation in line with the Paris Agreement. At RGI, we are convinced that the energy, climate and biodiversity crises can and should be tackled in parallel. In this context, we are increasing our activities related to the protection and restoration of nature in connection with the energy transition – particularly the deployment of renewable energy sources (RES) and electricity grids, both on land and at sea. In 2020, RGI established a multi-stakeholder platform called the Offshore Coalition for Energy and Nature ( OCEaN ). OCEaN brings together NGOs, wind industry actors, and grid operators active in the North and Baltic seas, with the aim of finding sustainable solutions to...
