<p style="margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt"><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">NEON is currently seeking three (3) Postdoctoral Fellows to contribute to its scientific mission through both advancement of science and engagement of the user
community. NEON Postdoctoral Fellows will receive funding for a period of two years, contingent on successful performance and available funding. The Postdoctoral Fellows will be expected to leverage NEON data in collaboration with NEON staff and community
contributors to generate scientific outcomes and peer-reviewed publications, while engaging the scientific community in NEON data use and potentially generating new tools to facilitate use of NEON data. These positions are ideally suited for researchers with
interests in open, reproducible data science, cross-scale approaches, and/or scientific engagement. Although proposals related to any aspect of NEON science are invited, areas of particular interest for NEON include: synthesis of continental-scale phenology
or biodiversity datasets to enable ecological forecasting, scaling of woody plant biomass and productivity, integration of disparate data streams across the Observatory (e.g., integrating data from the Airborne Observation Platform with data from the Terrestrial
or Aquatic Observation Systems), and increasing diversity and inclusion in NEON user communities. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
