The project aim to study adaptations to foraging and migration movements in of seabirds, such as lesser black-backed gull, common guillemots and razorbills. The birds will be tracked by advanced tracking technology recording their movements by GPS loggers, geolocators, time-depth recorders (TDRs). Spatial analytical tools and GIS will be applied to analyze the data. The project involves comparative work with seabirds of different species as well as at different locations. The movement patterns will be analyzed relative to winds, food availability, and topography as well as habitat type.
Eligibility/Entry Requirements
The PhD student is expected to be enthused about seabirds, capable of independent as well as collaborative work and have good skills in modelling as well as spatial data analyses. We are looking for a highly motivated graduate student who is interested in the ecology of seabird movements and has a Master’s degree in Biology/Ecology. The applicant should have an education in biology with ecology as a specialization. Required for the position are good programming skills, knowledge in modeling, and have experience from evaluations of tracking data and GIS. Required is also experience with handling of birds, and especially work with seabirds, and own experience from use of one or more of the techniques to be applied in the project. Good organizational skills, experience from independent work and good writing qualifications will be rated high.
