Post-doctoral position available: Global change in African Mountains

The University of Pretoria is offering a post-doctoral research
position on global change in African mountains. Global change denotes
the interaction between climate as well as other global drivers, and
human practice with respect to the ecosystem services, food and
natural resources. The effect of global change is likely to be
observed clearly in mountain areas because the altitudinal variation
in climate and natural resources in mountains provides a sensitive
indicator of environmental conditions and because human populations
in mountains are often closely dependent on these mountain natural
resources.
