Plant-insect interactions in a changing world
Project Overview: . Insects associated with plants comprise one of the most diverse groups of species on earth. Their impact on the ecology and evolution of their host plants is widely recognised, as is their contribution to multiple important ecosystem services. Read more
Determining the optimal mix of forestry systems and reserves under differing wildfire regimes for improving plant conservation
How to meet human needs for timber while limiting harm to biodiversity is an urgent scientific goal. The aim of this Australian Research Council funded PhD project are. Read more
The increasing susceptibility of tropical rainforests to fire and their post-fire recovery
Contact. Professor Susan Laurance (. susan.laurance@jcu.edu.au. ),. College of Science and Engineering. James Cook University, Cairns, Qld 4878. Read more
Spatio-temporal drivers of insect biodiversity and conservation
The School of Biology invites applications from prospective postgraduate researchers who wish to commence study for a PhD in the academic year 2023/24. Read more
Teagasc Walsh Fellowship (PhD) - Consequences of agricultural management intensity on soil microbiome-mediated nutrient cycling potential in Ireland

Interactions between introduced tree species and native mycorrhizal fungi in the UK
Mycorrhizal symbioses are one of the most extensive and important biotic interactions in terrestrial ecosystems, typically providing plants with improved access to nutrients in exchange for carbohydrates produced via photosynthesis. Read more
THE ROLE OF REWILDING IN RESTORATION: SOIL MICROBIAL DIVERSITY AND ECOLOGICAL FUNCTIONS
The Hawkesbury Institute for the Environment (HIE) is offering a research scholarship to a highly motivated PhD candidate to work on a project focussed on the role of rewilding in restoring soil microbial biodiversity and their functions. Read more
Evolutionary Perspectives on Medicinal Plant Use
Project Overview. This project uses phylogenetic comparative methods to characterise medicinal plant use. You will use published data to identify the ethnobotanical uses of selected species, and the extent to which they are characterised in terms of phytochemistry and pharmacology. Read more
The relationship between vegetation and morphology in saltmarsh restoration schemes
Managed realignment, where coastal flood defences are breached or lowered to introduce tidal inundation to the coastal hinterland, is becoming an increasingly popular approach to coastal management to restore saltmarsh environments and compensate for habitat and ecosystem service loss elsewhere. Read more

Understanding resilience in garden flora within the context of a changed climate
This project is a collaboration between the Universities of Sheffield and Reading and the Royal. Horticultural Society (RHS). It reflects recent climatic trends of more variable weather patterns and the. Read more
Insect movement and migration behaviour and implications for ecosystem function
Insects play many critical roles in global ecosystems. However, there is still relatively little known about their movement and migration behaviour and how this may influence a species’ ability to respond to landscape change. Read more
Unlocking the secrets of nature's colour palette with machine learning
The natural world contains an awe-inspiring variety of colouration across plant and animal species, but the causes of this diversity are not well understood. Read more

The Institute of Life Sciences is one of Israel's foremost centers of scientific investigation. Read more
The role of grazing in ecosystem service delivery in saltmarsh restoration schemes
Managed realignment, where coastal flood defences are breached or lowered to introduce tidal inundation to the coastal hinterland, is becoming an increasingly popular approach to coastal management to restore saltmarsh environments and compensate for habitat and ecosystem service loss elsewhere.
