Are you looking for opportunities to grow your vegetation modeling skills while answering pressing questions about how climate extremes will impact on crop yields? The Earth and Environmental Sciences (EES) Division at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL)
has immediate openings for one postdoctoral research associates with experience in crop or vegetation modeling. You will work as part of an interdisciplinary modeling and observational team to assess the impact of climate change on crop production. You will
contribute to collaborative projects with a focus on shared outcomes, publish results in high-impact peer-reviewed journals and present your work at professional conferences. The term of the appointment is two (2) years, with the option to extend to a third
year depending on performance and funding availability.<o:p></o:p></p>
