<font face="Calibri">This project is in collaboration with The
Nature Conservancy’s Global Aquaculture Program, for a<br>
full-time postdoctoral researcher to be based at the Harvard TH
Chan School of Public Health and<br>
supervised by Dr. Chris Golden. The postdoctoral researcher will
also be co-advised by Dr. Jessica<br>
Gephart at the National Socio-Environmental Synthesis Center and
Robert Jones of the Nature<br>
Conservancy. The postdoctoral researcher will identify aquaculture
systems that provide maximum<br>
nutrition with minimal environmental impacts by integrating
nutritional dimensions into<br>
aquaculture life cycle analysis (LCA). We will develop the method
using published LCA data and use<br>
the reviewed studies to identify priority locations and
aquaculture systems for further empirical<br>
data collection and novel analysis. This project consists of four
stages: 1) review and synthesize<br>
previous aquaculture LCAs; 2) integrate a nutritional dimension
into the reanalysis of previous LCA<br>
studies; 3) identify gaps and priority areas to collect data for
original LCA studies; and 4) conduct a<br>
series of novel LCAs for selected aquaculture species and
production types. In doing so, the results<br>
of this project will outline aquaculture systems with high
potential to positively contribute to<br>
environmental conservation, sustainable development, and global
human food security.</font><br>
