**What you will be doing**:
The appointee will join the Global Change Research Institute in the School of GeoSciences at the University of Edinburgh. The institute is home to around 100 academic and research staff and 130 postgraduate researchers whose overarching mission is to understand past, present and future changes in the Earth system, and to inform mitigation strategies for future change. We host longstanding programmes in understanding how the atmosphere, biosphere, cryosphere, land surface and oceans have interacted in the past, in monitoring their current behaviour, and in developing predictions of their future dynamics. Building on these scientific foundations, we further engage in interdisciplinary research focussed on mitigating the many challenges posed by the global climate emergency, environmental hazards, inequalities, conservation and sustainability. Our research extends throughout the world, over the seven continents, across all the oceans, from the poles to the equator, and from the deep Earth to the upper atmosphere. Our research programmes typically involve field work, remote sensing, in situ monitoring, laboratory experimentation and analysis, theory, modelling and stakeholder engagement. We research and teach across all GeoSciences disciplines including ecology, environmental science, geography, geology, geophysics and meteorology.

The BSc degree programmes in Ecological and Environmental Sciences have around 250 students across four years. Through classroom, practical, digital and field teaching, students on these programmes develop the skills and knowledge to: understand environmental issues; design robust strategies for sample collection; make ecological and environmental measurements; evaluate the significance of results; and manage conservation and environmental protection projects. They are taught mainly by staff within the Biosphere research group of the Global Change Research Institute. The group are advancing the frontiers of research on soils, freshwater, microbes and plants, their interactions and their role in the entire Earth system, while also contributing to improving human societal-environment relationships.
