Postdoctoral position in freshwater biodiversity and extreme events
Department of Forest Ecology and Management
Ongoing climate change and land-use impose severe pressures on boreal freshwater waters ecosystems, and especially the smallest streams. In Sweden, extreme drought events and floods are increasingly common. At the same time, millions of km of small waterways are under pressure from forest management. These anthropogenic pressures give rise to multiple stressors (e. g. elevated temperature and sediments) that may interact with potentially complex...
