Postdoctoral Research Associate in Environmental Studies: Modeling Agroforestry Transitions
Job Summary:We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our team in the Department of Environmental Studies at Dartmouth College. The successful candidate will work on a USDA-funded project focused on promoting climate-smart and sustainable agriculture in New England through regionally adapted agroforestry systems. The project aims to develop and test three agroforestry systems, promote agroforestry training and outreach programs, and build knowledge and skills around agroforestry as a climate-smart solution for expanding food production.
Key Responsibilities:- Develop and analyze spatial models of agroforestry transitions to project future landscape scenarios that optimize socio-ecological benefits and consider variance in valuation according to diverse stakeholder and rightsholders perspectives.
- Participate in ADAPT cohort activities, including interactions with postdocs, graduate students, undergraduates, PIs, farmers, and other project team members across all partner institutions.
- Give guest lectures in agroecology/agroforestry/modeling courses as appropriate in an area related to theory/complex systems/GIS.
- Publish results in peer-reviewed journal articles and present data at conferences.
- Mentor undergraduate and graduate students in scientific methods and career development.
- Contribute to the cultivation of an equitable, inclusive, and antiracist lab group.
- PhD in complex systems, landscape ecology, mathematical biology, computational biology, agroecology, agroforestry, environmental science/studies, or a closely related field at the time of starting the position.
- Strong programming experience in Mathematica, R (preferred but other similar language acceptable) and commitment to open data.
- Expertise and experience in GIS.
- Strong track record of relevant publications in peer-reviewed journals.
- Strong oral and written communication skills.
- Strong analytical skills, including knowledge of complex systems, theoretical ecology, spatial ecology, statistical packages, and analyses.
- Ability to interact and communicate effectively with people from a wide range of backgrounds, disciplines, organizational affiliations, and levels of expertise and knowledge.
- Ability to work well independently with minimal supervision, including strong problem-solving and creating thinking skills.
- Ability to work well as a member of a large, transdisciplinary team.
- Ability and desire to travel to partner sites and participate/lead community building activities.
- Specialization in theory of complex systems including agroecosystems or landscape ecology.
- Record of mentorship and experience broadening participation for historically excluded communities.
Please submit the following materials electronically via Interfolio.
- Cover letter, including contact information for three reference letters.
- CV.
Review of applications will begin on August 31, 2024; applications submitted after this date will be reviewed until the position is filled. Recommendations letters will be requested for finalists only. For questions about the position, please contact Dr. Theresa W. Ong with "ADAPT agroforestry modeling postdoc" in the subject line.
