PhD Position (m/f/d) in Visual and acoustic dimensions of forest change: Linking long-term monitoring data, perception and well-being within the Excellence Cluster Future Forests, University of Freiburg

  • 75% fixed-term, for 3.5 years (third-party funded)

  • Remuneration according to TV-L 13

  • Starting date: April 2026 or as soon as possible thereafter

This project investigates how long-term changes in forest structures and soundscapes impact

human well-being. It aims to reconstruct and compare visual and acoustic representations of forests in SW Germany from the 1970s to today, and match them with perceptions of experienced changes through a large-scale population survey. An experimental virtual reality setting will be employed to test the direct impact of these visual and acoustic changes on well-being. The project aims to establish a significant connection between ecological forest changes, public perception, and potential health impacts, thereby providing evidence-based knowledge for sustainable forest management.

The Excellence Cluster Future Forests at the University of Freiburg is an interdisciplinary research center dedicated to questions of adaptation and transformation of forests and their societal use in the face of global change. Future-oriented research on the complex interactions between forests and society is conducted here with outstanding international visibility, supported by the German Research Foundation. Future Forests brings together more than 50 researchers from four faculties as well as non-university partner institutions.
