 largescale ecosystem restoration projects to improve water flow and hydrologic connectivity of coastal marsh, mangrove and seagrass habitat. The candidate will be responsible for scientific research involving fieldwork, data analysis, coordination and synthesis
 related to several ESA projects including sea level rise effects on marshes, seagrass ecology and causes of die-off, the role of sheetflow in marsh ecology and fine-scale seascape mapping analysis.  Specific duties will include assisting in developing research
 projects, field surveys in Florida Bay 4-6 times per year, multi-day stays at our Interagency Science Center facility in the Florida Keys, the ability to do strenuous fieldwork, operate small boats and use field sampling gear. The candidate will also be asked
 to perform high-level statistical and GIS analyses to evaluate spatial data on water quality and environmental status and trends, data synthesis and the curating and maintenance of a large ecological database.  Experience in using and programming in R and
 in MATLAB is strongly preferred.  ESA expands its capability through collaborations with universities and other agencies and this position will involve interaction and contract management of these relationships, and communication and coordination with other
 scientists to synthesize data.  This position plays a critical role in liaising with environmental managers and the wider research community, requiring development of presentations for scientific meetings, writing of technical documents and publishing in the
