Oliver BrendelPlease BOOST : There is still time (until next Wednesday 18 June) for any interested master student to apply for the doctoral thesis in #Forest #Ecophysiology on the subject of "Defining functional strategies at the whole-plant level by integrating traits related to carbon acquisition and water use in seedlings of Fagaceae" that we offer here in Nancy.
More explicitely, this thesis is about #drought responses of #tree seedlings, considering all organs and many #FunctionalTraits , but somewhat focused on #CarbonAllocation, #WaterUseEfficiency and #PlantHydraulics .
The thesis takes place close to Nancy, East of France, in the #INRAe campus which is at the edge of a very nice forest. The student will work in our very active tree ecophysiology group (PHARE) of the Silva unit. More information can be found on the Silva website :

And don't hesitate to BOOST and share in your networks. Thanks !

This paper (which I’m quite proud of, took me 10 years to write, and if there are any access problems, it is also available at https://philsci-archive.pitt.edu/18965/ ) is basically about the natural philosopher’s understanding of how plants grow, with a special focus on the ratio between plant growth and the amount of water they use to do so (called #WaterUseEfficiency ), focusing a bit more on trees and #Forests ( and #Forests ) related research.
