Job title Postdoctoral Researcher - Integrated Marine & Terrestrial Biorefinery Systems (Blue Pasture). Company Circular Bioeconomy Research Group, Munster Technological University (MTU), in collaboration with BIORBIC – Ireland's National Bioeconomy Research Centre. Description of the job The Circular Bioeconomy Research Group at Munster Technological University invites applications for a Postdoctoral Researcher to take a senior technical role in the development and validation of integrated biorefinery systems for marine and terrestrial biomass. This position is part of Blue Pasture, a flagship, challenge-led research programme funded by Research Ireland's National Bioeconomy Research Centre BIORBIC, establishing Ireland's first integrated blue–green biorefinery framework, linking marine and terrestrial biomass. The successful candidate will contribute to process development, pilot translation and scale-up readiness as part of the BIORBIC challenge...

Job title PhD Opportunity in Biofloc Technology for Shrimp Aquaculture Company Lisaqua. Description of the job Lisaqua is recruiting a PhD candidate as part of the European doctoral project Switchfloc, funded by the European Union (Marie Curie Doctoral Network). The PhD will be carried out within Lisaqua's unique indoor shrimp farm in Nantes (Saint-Herblain), France, under real production conditions. The contract duration is 36 months. The Switchfloc project gathers 13 academic and private partners offering complementary knowledge in fish and shrimp production, feed manufacturing, aquaculture engineering, and Biofloc Technology (BFT). A total of 11 PhD candidates will be recruited to carry out research projects on different aspects of biofloc technology. This is a 100% funded PhD position with high-level scientific training and international mobility opportunities. The project connects research and real-world application: the PhD will not be limited to lab work...

Job title PhD Position: Impact of Offshore Windfarm on Marine Foodwebs. Company Naturalis Biodiversity Center. Description of the job Naturalis Biodiversity Center offers a PhD position within the No Regrets project, which aims to deliver science-based knowledge and tools that enable a sustainable transition to offshore energy. As a PhD candidate, you will focus on reconstructing the North Sea foodweb with an emphasis on molecular tools such as DNA metabarcoding. Offshore wind energy is expanding rapidly in the North Sea. This expansion offers climate solutions but also results in unprecedented ecological challenges. There is a large gap in knowledge on the effects of offshore windfarms on the North Sea foodweb dynamics. Potential ecological consequences include changes in water currents which impact nutrient dynamics, turbidity, light levels, intensity and timing of primary production and larval transport, all of which will be reflected in foodweb dynamics....

Job title Postdoc on Modelling Global Marine Phytoplankton-Virus Interactions.  Company University of Amsterdam, Institute for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Dynamics (IBED), Department of Freshwater and Marine Ecology. Description of the job The Department of Freshwater and Marine Ecology at the University of Amsterdam is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join the PHYVIR project, aimed at elucidating marine phytoplankton-virus interactions from local to global scales. The PHYVIR Project: One of the major challenges in oceanography is how to capture biological processes in mathematical models used for climate predictions. Despite their minute size, marine phytoplankton are vital for marine ecosystem productivity and play a key role in global carbon and nutrient cycling. However, like all life on Earth, phytoplankton are susceptible to viral infections. Viral-induced lysis of phytoplankton cells redirects the flow of energy and elements,...

Job title PhD Opportunity: Advancing Plankton Imaging & Machine Learning to Transform Marine Biodiversity Monitoring. Company Marine Research Plymouth (University of Plymouth, Plymouth Marine Laboratory, Marine Biological Association). Description of the job Marine Research Plymouth is offering a 3.5 year PhD studentship to advance plankton imaging and machine learning to transform marine biodiversity monitoring. The studentship is due to start on 1 October 2026. Plankton play essential roles in marine food webs and global carbon cycles, acting as sensitive indicators of environmental change and enabling predictions of climate impacts on ocean biodiversity. However, current plankton monitoring is insufficient, limiting the ability to detect biodiversity shifts, model ocean responses to climate stressors, and inform effective conservation policies. Although advances in imaging technologies have enhanced the spatio-temporal resolution of plankton sampling, these...

Job title Paid Summer Environmental Interns & Seasonal Associate Scientists. Company Cummins Cederberg - Coastal & Marine Engineering. Description of the job Cummins Cederberg is hiring Paid Summer Environmental Interns and Seasonal Associate Scientists to support coastal and marine environmental projects throughout Florida. These positions offer hands-on experience in marine fieldwork, environmental permitting, and applied coastal science. Summer Environmental Interns will support both field and office tasks under close supervision, gaining exposure to benthic habitat assessments, data entry, environmental permitting and compliance, and basic environmental documentation. This role is designed to provide practical, hands-on learning and mentorship in applied coastal and marine science. Seasonal Associate Scientists will focus exclusively on field-based work, supporting coastal and marine field efforts such as benthic habitat assessments, coral...
