Subject: urgent: postdoc search for "coastal adaptation to climate in the global South"
Date: January 22, 2026 at 3:45:19 PM EST
To: <es_jobs_net at mailman.ucar.edu>

Urgently looking for a postdoc for a University of Pennsylvania - Nature Conservancy multi-disciplinary joint project - to bring together ocean & climate science with social/development science. A new, exciting direction for me. The deadline for the first round of the application is January 30 so this is extremely time sensitive.


Project Area: Coastal Adaptation Strategies for Stability in the Global South

Coastal regions worldwide sit on the frontlines of climate change. Sea level rise, storm surges, coastal flooding, and shoreline erosion are reshaping coastlines, displacing people and livelihoods, and intensifying competition over natural resources—pressures that are particularly acute in the Global South. Yet despite mounting urgency, we still lack systematic, comparable evidence on how individuals, communities, and institutions respond to climate driven ocean hazards, and which responses and adaptation strategies reduce risk, and avoid unintended social and ecological harms.

We are seeking a computationally proficient candidate with expertise in either climate science, environmental science, social impacts science or data analytics to utilize Penn’s Machine Learning for Environmental Event Detection (MLEED) dataset and integrate it with climate/oceanographic datasets and TNC’s conservation planning tools. The goal is to generate and analyze evidence on climatic stressors and societal responses across countries in the Global South. The postdoc is expected to work in a multi-disciplinary team across oceanography, climate science and political science.

Mentor team: Prof. Irina Marinov (imarinov at sas.upenn.edu<mailto:imarinov at sas.upenn.edu>) and Dr. Nicholas Wolff (climate.science at tnc.org<mailto:climate.science at tnc.org>)
