<p class="MsoNormal">The United States Geological Survey is recruiting a post-doctoral scientist focused on science related to the energy-mineral-environment-human nexus and integrated analyses of tradeoffs associated with resource development. The Mendenhall
Program is described <a href="https://www.usgs.gov/centers/mendenhall/20-39-integrating-energy-mineral-and-other-natural-resource-information-support">
here</a>, and the details of the research opportunity 20-39: “Integrating energy, mineral, and other natural resource information to support resource management decision-making”,
<a href="https://www.usgs.gov/centers/mendenhall/20-39-integrating-energy-mineral-and-other-natural-resource-information-support">
here</a>. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The post-doc will work with project co-leads Seth Haines, Jay Diffendorfer, Emily Pindilli, and Darius Semmens as a well as wide network of collaborators. The location of position will depend on who the post-doc most wants to work with
but will be either Reston, VA or Denver, CO.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><o:p> </o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt">The candidate will have latitude to pursue novel research addressing the dynamic, interconnected relationships among natural resources; and consider the economic and societal consequences of these changes. We
encourage applicants from a wide range of disciplines. Please see <a href="https://www.usgs.gov/centers/mendenhall/20-39-integrating-energy-mineral-and-other-natural-resource-information-support">
this list</a> of possible research focal areas. The application process closes on January 6, 2022.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt">Mendenhall fellowships require the applicant to submit a proposal that addresses the research opportunity. This should be developed in collaboration with the project co-leads. If you plan to apply please email
any of the project co-leads with subject line “20-39 Mendenhall Post-doc.” <o:p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt">For non-US Citizens. See <a href="https://www.usgs.gov/centers/mendenhall/mendenhall-questions-and-answers">
this link</a>. “<i>Anyone can apply for a Research Opportunity; however, Mendenhall Fellowships are U.S. Government positions so the USGS must give preference to U.S. citizens. The hiring of citizens of other nations might be considered in very limited circumstances
– if there are NO qualified U.S. citizen applicants, and if the person meets BOTH the appropriations act and immigration laws. Please refer to
<a href="https://www.usajobs.gov/Help/working-in-government/non-citizens/">the Employment of non-citizens</a> webpage on USAJobs for additional details.</i>”<i>
