In the project BEATLE, we aim at improving the link between ecological and economic knowledge by quantifying the impact of conservation measures on biodiversity and integrating them into economic models (https://apo.uni-hohenheim.de/beatle). For work package 2 ‘Quantifying land-use impacts on biodiversity and ecosystem services’, we look for a highly motivated PhD student starting from September or October 2022.
In work package 2, the effect of management measures in agricultural landscapes, e.g. the establishment of flower strips to support pollinators, will be linked to changes in biodiversity and ecosystem services with help of meta-analysis and other quantitative synthesis tools.
