[Bamzai, Aparna]

Aloha!

An ORISE research opportunity is currently available with USGS PI-CASC: Increasing the Impact of Co-Produced Climate Science Among Diverse Pacific Practitioners. Please see full details of the responsibilities, expectations, and qualifications in the attached PDF, or head over to the Zintellect page<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.zintellect.com%2FOpportunity%2FDetails%2FUSGS-2022-18&data=05%7C01%7Cabamzai%40usgs.gov%7C0c3212104afe44c8ef1f08da9213bf0b%7C0693b5ba4b184d7b9341f32f400a5494%7C0%7C0%7C637982911243044606%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=Yo%2BIx8wNv3dD3EBbksm%2FMmKC%2BSttvH4A%2FqwbHrGFFWE%3D&reserved=0>. Feel free to share this with anyone who may be interested in applying!

For inquiries, contact PI-CASC Federal Director Mari-Vaughn Johnson at mvjohnson at usgs.gov<mailto:mvjohnson at usgs.gov>. The deadline to apply for this opportunity is September 23, 2022, 3 p.m. ET.

Note: The announcement currently states that this opportunity will be located in Hilo, Hawaiʻi, but it is also open to applicants based in other locations.

Research Project:
The selected individual will develop qualitative and/or quantitative metrics to assess the impacts of PI-CASC’s research portfolio in supporting science-based and equivalent knowledge-based decision making for climate change adaptive management of natural and cultural resources. The selected individual will apply those sets of metrics; synthesize the impact-assessment findings; and identify gaps, challenges, and opportunities to increase breadth and depth of PI-CASC’s climate science adaptation impacts.


The individual will actively engage with the practitioners who originally partnered with PI-CASC supported PIs to determine the impact of the co-produced research products on their management decision-making. Through this and other research methods, the candidate will identify factors important to successful adoption of co-produced science outcomes.

The selected individual will identify additional potential beneficiaries from the research products and conduct interviews or a similar assessment to determine best means of and or outstanding challenges preventing technology transfer to these individuals or organizations.  In particular, PI-CASC hopes to broaden the impact of our work via engagement with indigenous, native Hawaiian, and other marginalized or traditionally under-represented community groups and locations across the Pacific Islands region. There may be opportunities for the participant to develop, conduct, and synthesize research and traditional ecological knowledge with and for these groups and locations to increase the impact of PI-CASC supported science and equivalent knowledge on management decisions enabling wildlife, ecosystems, and people to adapt to a changing climate. Given time and capacity, the individual may have the opportunity to collaborate with researchers, managers, and community members to actuate those changes to increase the impacts of previous and ongoing projects in science- and equivalent knowledge-based decision-making.
