MultiArc is an European Union-funded Marie Curie Early Stage Training
Network that aims to understand the plant and soil driven processes that
define arctic and upland carbon dynamics at the community and ecosystem
level and to understand how these processes scale up and drive catchment
carbon dynamics.
Six early stage training fellowships are available within this three
year programme, during which fellows will study towards a PhD.
Two fellowships are available at the University of Sheffield focusing on
the following topics:
- Leaf and plant scale carbon dynamics (Professor M. Press, E-mail:
m.c.press [at] sheffield.ac.uk; Dr. G. Phoenix, E-mail:
g.phoenix [at] sheffield.ac.uk)
- Soil leachate carbon dynamics and catchment hydrochemistry (Dr. A.
Hodson, E-mail: A.J.Hodson [at] Sheffield.ac.uk, Dr. G. Phoenix, E-mail:
g.phoenix [at] sheffield.ac.uk)
Two fellowships are available at the Abisko Scientific Research Station
focusing on the following topics:
- Vegetation and large scale carbon dynamics (Professor T. Christensen,
E-mail: Torben.Christensen [at] nateko.lu.se)
- Modelling and integration across scales (Professor T. Callaghan,
E-mail: t.v.callaghan [at] sheffield.ac.uk; Dr. E. Hanna, E-mail:
E.Hanna [at] Sheffield.ac.uk)
Two fellowships are available at Vrije Universiteit focusing on the
following topic:
- Plant/decomposition/soil interactions (Professor R. Aerts, E-mail:
rien.aerts [at] ecology.falw.vu.nl; Dr. H. Cornelissen, E-mail:
hans.cornelissen [at] ecology.falw.vu.nl)
