The aims of this studentship are:<\/p>\n

(1) to evaluate the transferability of satellite-based models of phytoplankton primary production developed for oceans to lakes;<\/p>\n

(2) to apply the model(s) to the satellite datasets for selected UK and international lakes to generate primary production time-series;<\/p>\n

(3) examine intra- and inter-annual changes in the productivity of the selected lakes in relation to catchment and climate drivers. The student will validate and develop a range of primary production algorithms for suitability in contrasting lake ecosystems. The PhD will also entail field work and the collection of in situ measurements using 14C photosynthesis-irradiance curves and continuous in-situ measurements of O2-evolution from instrumented buoys. The best performing algorithms will be used to process satellite data for a selection of lakes to enable patterns of primary production, and their drivers, to be determined at high resolution in space and time in relation to climatic effects.<\/p>\n

Application Deadline:\u00a007 June 2013<\/strong><\/p>\n
