[Xiaojie Gao]

*Senior Ecologist at Harvard Forest*


Harvard Forest seeks a colleague with a successful research, publication,
and funding record to join our senior research staff. We hope to identify a
candidate who will lead science and operations of measuring ecosystem CO2,
water, and energy fluxes at the Harvard Forest’s long-running eddy
covariance towers, and who will flourish in our collaborative intellectual
environment. The EMS site includes a new (2025) tower to carry on the flux
measurement record at this site that began in 1991, and the Hemlock site
was established in 2004 and updated in 2014. We welcome additional research
foci that augment and enhance existing programs at the Harvard Forest and
leverage established archival, land, and research infrastructure developed
over more than a century of study. The researcher will join a collaborative
group of senior scientists who design, fund, conduct, and publish research
relating to forested landscapes of New England; advance engagement with
relevant policy- and decision-makers; and collaborate with a wide network
of external researchers. Senior researchers’ salaries are
department-funded, and scientists are expected to develop an externally
funded research program.  Senior Scientists mentor undergraduates—from
Harvard and elsewhere—in Harvard Forest summer/winter internships and
co-curricular programs. They may also advise graduate students and
post-doctoral fellows as part of their research program and contribute to
our renowned K-12 education program.



*Basic Qualifications:  *PhD required.  Post-doctoral or similar experience
including a history of collaborative research, publication, student
mentorship, engagement with broader audiences, and external funding.
