CREAF is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to work in the FOREST-LED project (Forest loss, expansion and development over the last 30 years in spain: spatiotemporal patterns, impact of hazards and multifunctional management) with ref. PID OB-I00 and funded by Ministerio de Ciencias, Innovacion y Universidades.

The aim of the project FOREST-LED is to understand the forest changes after 30 years of natural disturbances and socio-economic events in Spain just in the moment in which we are experiencing unprecedented extreme climatic events.
