Post-Doctoral Position
USEPA, Western Ecology Division, Corvallis, OR
Spatially-Explicit Fish Population Modeling
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Western Ecology Division
(Corvallis, OR), is seeking candidates for a post-doctoral position to
develop a spatially explicit simulation model to evaluate the effects of
multiple stressors on fish populations or metapopulations in stream/river
networks over large geographic areas (basin to regional scale). Of
particular interest are potential effects from direct and indirect habitat
alteration, movement barriers, chemical contaminants, introduced species
and hatchery stocks, and fishing pressure. The model will be used to help
target restoration and protection activities by identifying the relative
importance of different types of stressors in different portions of the
network on fish population viability. Results will be compared among fish
species with different life history strategies, habitat requirements, and
mobility. Initial applications will focus on the Willamette Basin, OR.
The post-doctoral position will be part of an interdisciplinary research
team at the Western Ecology Division evaluating the effects of spatial
patterns of habitats and stressors on the viability of fish, amphibian, and
aquatic-dependent birds and mammals, and linkages between large-scale
landscape change and patterns of habitat quality. Applicants must have
experience developing landscape-scale population models or closely related
research, and an understanding of fish population dynamics and freshwater
habitats. GIS and computer programming skills are desirable.
Applications are due no later than 9 July 1999. If you are interested,
send a curriculum vitae, a letter of recommendation from your senior
research advisor or other comparable official, and a letter describing your
research interests, preferred work location (Corvallis, OR, for this
position), and country of citizenship to Ms. Dorothy Carr, USEPA, Human
Resources Management Division (MD-29), Research Triangle Park, NC 27711,
ATTN: NHEERL Post-Doctoral Program. The position is part of a larger
recruiting effort for post-doctoral appointments within EPA's National
Health and Environmental Effects Research Laboratory (NHEERL). Further
information on the NHEERL-wide announcement can be found in the attached
document and at http://www.epa.gov/nheerl/postdoc/ (refer to position
WED-3). The salary range is $33,026 to $62,260, commensurate with
qualifications.
If you have questions regarding the post-doc on fish modeling contact Joan
