This is a 12-18 month, limited term non-tenure track position and is funded from external sources. Continued employment is contingent on availability of funding and satisfactory performance. Success of this project will result in the development of a framework for decision making about grassland habitat management using spatially link habitat and populations models for species of conservation. This position will focus on developing methods to reduce ecological uncertainty through data analyses, parameter estimation, and developing models relating habitat management actions to bird population response. The project may involve Bayesian estimation of demographic rates, simulation modeling, dynamic programming to find optimal policy recommendations, among other research topics. The position will work closely with the East Gulf Coastal Plains Grassland Bird working group to ensure that research products meet the needs of Fish and Wildlife Partners. </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#2A2A2A'><br>Qualifications: </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#2A2A2A'>The minimum qualification is a PhD from an accredited institution in wildlife biology, conservation biology, ecology, biometrics or a related field.

On average the Pacific has seen a loss of almost 13% of mangroves across the region over the fifty years. While the specifics may vary between countries, the underlying drivers of mangrove degradation are similar, according to regional mangrove managers and specialists in the Pacific.<span class=apple-converted-space> </span></span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#2A2A2A'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p style='background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#111111'><br>In the light of importance of mangrove ecosystems for local livelihood their importance as natural insurance against climate change, IUCN has developed under its Pacific Centre for Environmental Governance a Pacific Mangrove Initiative (PMI).
