PhD position on how vegetation influences soil microbial processes and carbon cycling across scales

EURAXESS hosting organisation · Plusieurs pays européens

How does vegetation protect soil microorganisms from climate extremes, and what does this mean for ecosystem carbon cycling? Climate change is increasing the frequency and intensity of droughts and heat waves, impacting ecosystem carbon storage worldwide. Join the Institute for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Dynamics (IBED) in this interdisciplinary project to uncover how vegetation traits and structure shape below-ground microclimates, which in turn regulate soil microbial processes and influence ecosystem carbon cycling across. About the position Climate change is increasing the frequency and intensity of droughts, with profound consequences for ecosystem carbon cycling. While drought effects on aboveground vegetation have been studied extensively, our understanding of how vegetation structu
