About the position
In this project the post doc will evaluate how an important part of forest biodiversity, i.e. wood decay fungi, respond to RF and CCF. We aim to evaluate species distributions, occurrences and assemblage composition of ectomycorrhizal fungi and wood fungi in CCF and RF. Furthermore, we aim to investigate how fungal species traits and phylogeny contribute to the ecosystem function in CCF and RF. The hands-on working tasks include field and lab work, data analysis and scientific writing. The post doc will be part of a larger research programme covering effects on climate and biodiversity.
