I am searching for a master student that would like to do their master thesis project with me, possibly Ola Olsson, and Anne-Maarit Hekkala (SLU Umeå). The project will be on how long-horned beetles are affected by Swedish Ecoparks, e.g. multifunctional forest landscapes (landscapes that include a multitude of management practices), forest structures, and rewilding practices. The focus areas of the project are in Kalmar and close to Umeå. Some fieldwork to measure forest structures will be included in the project.
For this project we are searching for a master student that:
- Wants to do a 45-60 hp thesis project.
- Can start this year.
- Would like to do some fieldwork (mostly independently).
- Has preferably some experience in R (or is willing to learn more about R).
- Is eager to understand how we can protect long-horned beetles in forest ecosystems.
Does this sound like something for you?
