<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"-webkit-standard",serif;color:black">We are seeking a modeling<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>postdoc to work on grass vegetation as part of a project funded by NSF's Macrosystems Biology and NEON-Enabled
Science program. The successful applicant will work as part of a large, interdisciplinary team to implement and test a new, evolutionary approach to capturing grass functional diversity and biogeography in Earth System Models. The overall approach, based on
lineage functional types, will be based upon expansion of a grass trait database, additional data mining of existing literature on grass functional traits, and model development of processes important to grass modeling. The modeling<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>postdoc
will be based at Oregon State University but will travel to the San Francisco Bay Area to work with modeling collaborators (W.J. Riley at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and D. Griffith at NASA Ames Research Center).<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
