Battelle Ecology, Inc. manages and operates the National
Ecological Observatory Network (NEON™) project, which is solely
funded by the National Science Foundation. A 30+ year project
dedicated to understanding how changes in climate, land use and
invasive species impact ecology, the observatory’s scientists and
engineers are collecting a comprehensive range of ecological data
on a continental scale across 20 eco-climatic domains representing
US ecosystems. Our teams use cutting-edge technology, including an
airborne observation platform that captures images of regional
landscapes and vegetation; mobile, relocatable, and fixed data
collection sites with automated ground sensors to monitor soil and
atmosphere; and trained field crews who observe and sample
populations of diverse organisms and collect soil and water data.
Once structures are completed, a leading edge cyberinfrastructure
will calibrate, store and publish this information. The
Observatory includes more than 500+ personnel and is the first of
its kind designed to detect and enable forecasting of ecological
change at continental scales. For more information about the
project and our team, visit <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.battelle.org/neon">www.battelle.org/neon</a>.</p>

Scientist will work with an interdisciplinary team of ecologists,
engineers, and other scientists to design, develop, test, and
implement statistically valid data products that will enable
researchers to investigate the impact of climate change, land-use
change, invasive species, and unsustainable water use on
freshwater ecosystems of North America.</p>

Scientist is responsible for development, documentation and
implementation of detailed sampling designs and analytical
protocols for the aquatic instrumented subsystem (AIS) of the NEON
project. This position will require collaboration with the
Battelle Ecology, Inc. Engineering Team for development of
engineering-level documentation of the AIS components. The
position will co-develop and document algorithm theoretical basis
documents for data product development, command, configuration,
and control documents for sensor installations, and update the
scientific rationale for the NEON Project AIS. The Staff Scientist
will help define approaches for quantifying and tracking
uncertainty, calculating error budgets, and developing models for
trend detection. The position will develop, document, and analyze
data for commissioning test for NEON Project Aquatic
instrumentation. This position will play a key role in
communications with the aquatic Technical Working Groups and the
larger stream community. In collaboration with the Aquatic
Instrumentation and Oceanography Manager, this position will help
identify and propose new initiatives to further the Battelle
Ecology business.</p>
