PhD position: Collective sensing of the resource landscape in migratory fruit
bats
Position details: This position would involve tagging large bats, ground
truthing tracks and visiting stop-over sites. You would have to work closely
with African collaborators and take the lead on organizing the logistics of
field trips. Data analysis would cover movement data, remote sensing, and drone
image analysis using machine learning techniques for food availability
extrapolations. Starting time is flexible in 2019. This position is funded by
the "Collective Behaviour" cluster and will involve cross-disciplinary
collaboration with departments at the University of Konstanz.
Qualifications: Preferably experienced with working with small mammals or birds
in the field. Experienced with travelling in tropical remote places. Working
(predominantly at night) under very basic conditions independently and spend
significant amounts of time in the field is required. Must have an
interest/previous experience with handling large datasets. Working language in
the group and institute is English and good English skills are required.
