The Next-Generation Ecosystem Experiments–Tropics, or NGEE-Tropics (<a href="https://ngee-tropics.lbl.gov/" class="">https://ngee-tropics.lbl.gov/</a>), led by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (<a href="https://www.lbl.gov/" class="">https://www.lbl.gov/</a>), is a multi-institutional research project funded by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Office of Science, Office of Biological and Environmental Research (BER). NGEE-Tropics aims to fill the critical gaps in knowledge of tropical forest-climate system interactions, and has as its overarching goal the development of predictive understanding of how tropical forest carbon balance and climate system feedbacks will respond to changing environmental drivers over the 21st Century. A key focus of the work is the study of process-level controls on forest regeneration trajectories following diverse disturbance types, including through nutrient availability and cycling. </div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; min-height: 12px; font-size: 15px;" class=""><br class=""></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">You will collect, synthesize and analyze data from across natural soil gradients, land use histories, and nutrient manipulation experiments to understand how nutrients and their interaction with other key factors influence forest functional composition and ecosystem processes through post-disturbance recovery of tropical forests. Results will inform development of vegetation demographic models and their representation of the abiotic and biotic interactions that influence local, regional and global water and biogeochemical cycles. You will be based in LBNL’s Climate and Ecosystem Sciences Division and will spend time working in Puerto Rico. We seek a highly motivated and productive early-career scientist who would thrive in this dynamic environment. </div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; min-height: 12px; font-size: 15px;" class=""><br class=""></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class=""><b class="">What You Will Do:</b></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Synthesize and analyze plant demographic, plant trait, soil and ecosystem process datasets from diverse sources, including remote sensing observations.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Collect timely new field data to fill gaps in existing datasets.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Apply ecological and soil science theories to investigate process level controls on the assembly of tropical forest communities and associated ecosystem structure and function.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Collaborate with the FATES and E3SM modeling communities on model development, testing, and applications involving Puerto Rican forests.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Publish results in high-quality journals and contribute to proposals involving tropical forest regeneration and nutrient cycling.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; min-height: 12px; font-size: 15px;" class=""><br class=""></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class=""><b class="">What is Required:</b></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• PhD in relevant field (e.g. ecology, forestry, geography, soil science).</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Data processing and analysis experience.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Field research experience.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Solid background in ecological, plant physiological, and biogeochemical theory.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Interest in the application and testing of state-of-the-art vegetation and land-surface models.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Record of publishing research in peer-reviewed journals.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Desire to work within an integrated, multi-institution team whose activities span from field research to Earth system model development.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; min-height: 12px; font-size: 15px;" class=""><br class=""></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class=""><b class="">Additional Desired Qualifications:</b></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Tropical field research experience.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Model development skills.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Fluency in Spanish.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• Availability to travel for meetings at partner institutions.</div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; min-height: 12px; font-size: 15px;" class=""><br class=""></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class=""><b class="">The posting shall remain open until the position is filled</b></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; min-height: 12px; font-size: 15px;" class=""><b class=""></b><br class=""></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class=""><b class="">Notes:</b></div><div style="margin: 0px; line-height: normal; font-family: Optima; font-size: 15px;" class="">• This is a full time, 1 year, postdoctoral appointment with the possibility of renewal based upon satisfactory job performance, continuing availability of funds and ongoing operational needs.
