PhD Seasonal Timing of Egg Overwintering Insects under Climate Change
Climate change is exerting strong selection on wild populations, with many species showing shifts in the seasonal timing of development. One particularly vulnerable group are insect species that overw...
PhD candidate #vacancy alert:
Insect species that overwinter as eggs are particularly vulnerable to climate change. We are looking for a PhD candidate to collect more data to predict whether these insects can adapt to climate change.
