The mission of the Leibniz Centre for Agricultural Landscape Research (ZALF) as a nationally and internationally active research institute is to deliver solutions for an ecologically, economically and socially sustainable agriculture – together with society. ZALF is a member of the Leibniz Association and is located in Müncheberg (approx. 35 minutes by regional train from Berlin-Lichtenberg). It also maintains a research station with further locations in Dedelow and Paulinenaue.
The Cropping System Analysis group is offering a PhD position within the DFG funded research group, Agroforestry for sustainable multifunctional agriculture (FORMULA) as part of the sub-project, Management, productivity and yields. Together with partners at University of Giessen and ZALF, this PhD project has the task to investigate crop stressors along gradients perpendicular to tree lines in agroforestry systems. The research will use a combination of experimentation and process-based model simulation to explore mechanisms of crop responses to single and multiple stressors in agroforestry systems.
Subject to final approval of funds, we are offering a 65% (26 hours per week) position for 4 years at our location in Müncheberg as PhD student (f/m/d).
