The Institute of Environmental Sciences at Leiden University is seeking a masters or bachelors student to contribute to EU-funded research in understanding temporal variability in functional biodiversity. Field work will involve collecting hyperspectral data and leaf samples; and ground truth analysis of traits. Projects can focus on functional diversity, temporal dynamics of plant traits, retrieval of traits through remote sensing, or other ideas in consultation with the supervisor. The tropical location is subject to change and will require an extensive stay (May- August). More info at http://bit.ly/2FGzl5P. Interested candidates should contact Dr. Rosaleen March at [email protected].
