Job title Researcher in Underwater Passive Acoustics and Marine Bioacoustics. Company University of the Aegean (UoA), Department of Marine Sciences, Research Unit. Description of the job The Research Unit of the University of the Aegean seeks a First Stage Researcher (R1-MSc) with experience in underwater passive acoustics and good understanding of bioacoustics. The researcher will contribute to the implementation of the LIFE MareNatura project (LIFE22-NAT-EL-LIFE-MareNatura/101113792), co-funded by the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA). The position focuses on the analysis of long-term passive acoustic data from autonomous fixed recorders and from short-term hydrophone deployments. The work includes extraction of underwater noise metrics, detection of cetacean and other marine fauna sounds, and characterization of the underwater soundscape. Analysis of concurrent acoustic and video data will also be needed. The selected...

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 Contract - Economic Feasibility and Market Opportunities for Industrial BFT Implementation. Company Kveloce. Description of the job Kveloce is offering a PhD position under the SwitchFloc Grant Agreement, a project funded by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Doctoral Networks programme. The project aims to train the new generation of professionals in Biofloc Technology (BFT), an innovative and sustainable aquaculture system. About Biofloc Technology: Thanks to BFT, it is possible to recycle C and N waste into valuable biomass suitable to be used on-site as a nourishing food source, reducing the need for aquafeeds and enhancing animal immune system. The N conversion into microbial fraction allows minimal water exchange, reducing water requirements. Moreover, BFT ensures biosecurity due to the absence of communication among tanks. However, BFT is still a relatively new technology that needs to be better understood, mainly under intensive...
