Offer Description
The role of disease is generally understudied in pelagic ecology. Our group aims to understand the role of parasites of zooplankton and their effects on biogeochemical processes, population dynamics, and community composition. We are seeking a candidate who will use state-of-the-art high-throughput imaging devices in combination with traditional plankton sampling to examine responses to environmental gradients and fluctuations on scales relevant to the individual plankton and their parasites.
The candidate will observe fine-scale dynamics of zooplankton, including short-lived parasite stages or rare groups typically underrepresented in net samplings. Results will be used to test available model predictions of key traits and population dynamics of zooplankton hosts and parasites. Results may also be combined with larger-scale data from Skagerrak and Kattegat and our existing meta-barcoding data sets from ongoing projects (e.g. POICE project, RCN) to examine how large-scale distributions depend on fine-scale responses to the environment and how parasites mediate dynamics.
