Please forward to interested parties.
The University of Colorado and the Forest Service have available immediately a postdoctoral position for 15 months in an interdisciplinary research project. The focus of our research project is to develop decision support tools that can be used by the Forest Service to incorporate climate change considerations into management and planning. Research teams are working with three National Forests: the Olympic NF in Washington, the Inyo in California and the Shoshone in Wyoming. This research position will focus on the case study for the Shoshone National Forest in northwestern Wyoming and will work with scientists at the Western Water Assessment at CU-NOAA, the Rocky Mountain Research Station (Fort Collins), the USFS Regional Office (Denver) and resource managers at the Shoshone National Forest (Cody, Wyoming). The decision support tools being developed include qualitative tools such as an assessment process to determine the vulnerability of current management projects and more quantitative tools exploring projections for climate and vegetation types on the Shoshone NF. The position is located with the USFS Rocky Mountain Research Station in Fort Collins, Colorado. The successful applicant must have a mix of expertise in ecology or related fields, and experience with quantitative modeling and analysis. The applicant must have good communication skills and be able to work in an interdisciplinary research environment and with resource managers in meetings and workshops. Screening will begin immediately and until the position is filled. Job announcement and details on applying can be found at: http://cires.colorado.edu/jobs/WWA-3.pdf. Questions, please contact Linda Joyce (ljoyce@xxxxxxxxx).
