Modelling postdoctoral position at Ifremer

The objective for the post-doctorate fellow will be to further develop the zooplankton component of a coupled physical-biogeochemical model over the Bay of Biscay (www.previmer.org), to improve the estimation of trophic fluxes to fish. The existing model is based on a classical functional separation in two large size classes (micro and meso-zooplankton).
