Opportunity: We invite applications for a tenure track position in

with an emphasis on the interactions of human-accelerated environmental

ecological function, climate change, or broad-scale patterns in
biodiversity. The area of expertise could be in any ecosystem. We are
particularly interested in individuals who are developing and applying
quantitative methods, who are interested in understanding underlying
ecological processes, who work at various scales, and who will collaborate
with ecologists and evolutionary biologists as well as scientists in
related disciplines across Cornell.

Qualifications:  Applicants should have a Ph.D., demonstrated excellence in
research in large-scale quantitative ecology, such as analyzing big data
sets, remote sensing, ecological observation systems, or ecosystem-scale,
regional-scale, or Earth system modeling. Candidates should have a strong
interest in collaborative research, and a dedication to excellence in
teaching. Post-doctoral experience is highly desirable.
