[LTER-grad-rep] LTER postdoc opportunity: First review October 1

[Marty Downs]

Hi LTER grad reps, students, and recent grads,
I wanted to make sure that the LTER postdoc opportunity was on your radar.
The first review date is in one week. This will be a great opportunity for
a big picture thinker with analytical skills. Please help spread the word
inside and outside the LTER community.

Thanks, Marty

LTER POSTDOCTORAL SCHOLAR

The closing date for the LTER Network postdoc position (
https://lternet.edu/opportunities/lter-postdoctoral-scholar/)  is coming up
in 1 week!

The Network Office of the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) Network
invites applicants for a 100% time Postdoctoral Fellow position to
participate in synthesis research and working group collaboration.
Established by the National Science Foundation in 1980 to study ecological
processes operating on decadal-to-century time scales, the LTER program now
includes a network of 28 diverse sites across the U.S. and engages
thousands of researchers and students.

The LTER Network Office supports multiple simultaneous synthesis working
groups <https://lternet.edu/current-working-groups/> that develop
generalizable insights and propose new theory drawing on decades of data in
LTER’s five core focus areas: primary productivity, populations, organic
matter, water and nutrients, disturbance. Many sites have also incorporated
deep expertise in human-environment interactions. For more information
about the LTER Network, visit: https://lternet.edu/.

The Fellowship provides opportunities to engage in new and ongoing
synthesis projects and to contribute to and learn from a vibrant community
of postdoctoral researchers, visiting scholars, and staff scientists at
NCEAS. NCEAS is a leader in open science practice and the successful
candidate will have the opportunity to develop additional skills and
contribute in this area. The selected candidate will engage deeply with 1-2
synthesis working groups, depending on their interests and the needs of the
working group. In addition to organized working groups, the postdoc may
take on an independent synthesis project that will benefit the Network as a
whole. The required statement of research interests should briefly describe
candidates’ interest and alignment with specific working groups as well as
ideas for broader projects.
