ForestGEO <http://www.forestgeo.si.edu/> and the Asian School of the
Environment <http://www.ase.ntu.edu.sg/> invite applications for the
position of Program Coordinator for the ForestGEO Asia Program.

The position will oversee and coordinate ForestGEO activities in Asia,

encourages broad use of the regional network, conduct independent research
related to the ecology of Asian forests, lead training and capacity
strengthening activities for students and researchers associated with ASE
and ForestGEO sites, seek external funding, and promote ForestGEO and ASE
to diverse audiences.

The successful candidate will have a PhD in ecology or related field

physiological ecology, ecosystem science, global change biology, and plant
systematics and evolution), at least 5 years experience working on the
forests of tropical Asia, and experience with data management and

Environment (ASE) at NTU embarked on a long-term partnership with the
Forest Global Earth Observatory Network of the Smithsonian Institution
(ForestGEO) to capitalize on the strengths and dynamism of both
institutions. Together, NTU and ForestGEO will collaborate on research,
training and capacity development in forest science, and create a
cosmopolitan hub for forest ecology in Asia.
