The Discovery of Sheathia meghalayensis   Elaya Perumal & Palanisamy, 2026 The world of phycology—the study of algae—just got a little more fascinating. While marine red algae dominate our coastal vocabulary, their freshwater counterparts, the Rhodophyta, represent an ancient and highly specialized evolutionary lineage. (Photo credit: Dr. U Elaya Perumal, Botanical Survey of India) In a paper published in Current Science , researchers U. Elaya Perumal and M. Palanisamy from the Botanical Survey of India announced a major taxonomic breakthrough: the discovery of a distinct, critically endangered freshwater red alga named Sheathia meghalayensis  Elaya Perumal & Palanisamy, 2026 . (Photo credit: Dr. U Elaya Perumal, Botanical Survey of India) The Background: Filling a Critical Gap in India’s Biodiversity Northeastern India is recognized as a global biodiversity hotspot, yet its freshwater macroalgae have historically lagged behind marine species in documentation. Prior su...

  Fully Funded PhD in Understanding the solar-induced fluorescence (SIF) signal of tree canopies from remote sensing data Application Deadline: Open until filled Country: Germany Your Job: IBG-2 plays a globally leading role in retrieving and interpreting solar-induced fluorescence (SIF) measured with imaging and non-imaging sensors at different spatial scales (from leaf up to satellite observations) to monitor the dynamics in vegetation photosynthesis. In this context, the offered PhD position is embedded in a collaborative project together with partners from the German Aerospace Center (PBA) and Bonn University (RSRG). The main goal of the collaborative project is to derive leaf biochemical and canopy structural information from optical and LiDAR data and use this information in the 3D Discrete Anisotropic Radiative Transfer (DART) model to disentangle the functional (photosynthetic) and structural (architectural) contributions to forest canopy SIF derived from remote sensing obs...
