* PhD position on mapping ecosystem service tradeoffs*

The Mediterranean Institute for Biodiversity and Ecology (IMBE,
Aix-Marseille University, Aix-en-Provence, France <http://www.imbe.fr>), in
its Research Group "Macroecology and Biogeography of Global Change
(MacroBio) <http://www.imbe.fr/eq-1-2-macroecologie-et,58.html?lang=en>"
has a 36-months PhD position open for applications. The position is funded
by the European Commission through the FP7 Research Project
OPERAs<http://operas-project.eu>and affiliated to the French National
Scientific Research Centre (
CNRS <http://www.cnrs.fr>).

The topic is the broad-scale spatial mapping and quantification of
ecosystem service trade-offs following from management of agro-ecosystems
in the Mediterranean basin. The context of the research includes the
environment (climate, land use) as well as trends in societal demands for
services. Based on scientific literature, spatial databases and the outputs
from a process-based ecosystem model, the candidate will analyze, quantify
and map ecosystem service trade-offs. Service valuation and indicator
representation methods will be developed with the IMBE team. The approach
is pan-Mediterranean: a significant part of the work will therefore consist
of helping to reduce gaps in data and knowledge for the sum of countries
around the Mediterranean basin.

The research group works in close interaction with international programs
such as Future Earth (through its project ecoSERVICES) and science-policy
interfaces such as IPBES.

The successful candidate will have completed a Masters degree (or
equivalent) in one of the environmental sciences, have experience in the
handling of spatial data from databases, literature and models, have
knowledge of existing concepts of ecosystem services, and be able to place
results in the context of the Mediterranean basin (this includes the
European, as well as North African and Eastern countries). The working
language is English, appropriate skills in French or another of the
Mediterranean languages will be an advantage.

The position will be filled when a suitable candidate has been identified.
To apply for this position, please send a letter of application,
demonstrating your ability to understand the task, and your CV as soon as
possible, but before the 31st of January 2013, by e-mail to Ms. Gabriela
Boéri (Gabriela.Boeri@xxxxxxx). For any questions about the task, working
conditions, or the OPERAs project, please contact Professor Wolfgang Cramer
(Wolfgang.Cramer@xxxxxxx).
