PhD Position Available - “New approaches for measuring dry deposition of nitrogen and trace elements using Particulate Matter biosensors”

The BIOMA Institute for the Biodiversity and the Environment of the University of Navarra is seeking a motivated and talented PhD student to join its international LICA research team (Integrated Laboratory for Environmental Quality).

We are pleased to announce the opening of a fully funded 4-year PhD position within the International Doctoral Program in Science at the Catholic University of Brescia (Italy), focusing on developing and validating novel techniques for assessing the dry deposition of nitrogenous species and trace elements associated with Particulate Matter (PM) in forest ecosystems. Specifically, the research activity will:

1. Perform vertical flux measurements of PM using the Eddy Covariance in a forest ecosystem.

2. Develop and test biosensor-based methodologies utilizing moss-bags and moss-cubes as passive collectors for PM deposition.

3. Investigate the spatial and temporal variability of PM-associated nitrogen and trace element deposition through biosensor.

4. Compare biosensor-derived deposition estimates with EC measurements to evaluate the reliability and accuracy of this alternative approach.

5. Analyze biosensor deployment strategies to distinguish between lateral advection and vertical fluxes.


Key Details:

· Duration: 4 years (3 years in Brescia, Italy, at the Catholic University of Brescia, and 1 year in Pamplona, Spain, at the BIOMA Institute)

· Start Date: 1st November 2025

· Application Deadline: 7th July 2025

· Call for applications and further info
