1. Fisheries Post-Doc, Nature Capital Project
Stanford, CA or Seattle, WA
NatCap seeks a creative individual for a 1-2 year post-doc working on
climate-habitat-fisheries models and their application.
The postdoc will develop a climate-habitat-fisheries model for
application in New England and then generalize it for application to
other locations. The modeling project is part of a team effort to
explore how changes in sea surface temperature (and potentially ocean
acidification) may affect coastal and offshore habitats, thus changing
distribution of target and bycatch species, fishing behavior and profits
to port communities. The successful applicant must have experience in
quantitative modeling; knowledge of fisheries science and fish-habitat
interactions is preferred. Familiarity with agent- or individual-based
models, climate models and integrating across different types of models
is desired. The model is intended to aid in the support of coastal and
marine management and to be general and widely applicable, so applicants
must be passionate about creating simple, elegant, scientifically robust
models for decision-making purposes. The model will be part of the
Natural Capital Project's suite of software tools used to map and value
the goods and services from nature that sustain and fulfill human life.
The successful applicant will also support a variety of other NatCap
engagements that involve fisheries, by running or adapting existing
InVEST models to meet the needs of the engagement.
