seeking applications for two Postdoctoral Scholar positions in ecological
remote sensing to join a highly collaborative team of researchers in the Center
for Ecosystem Science and Society (</a><a href="https://ecoss.nau.edu/">ECOSS</a>) and School of Informatics, Computing, and Cyber Systems (<a href="https://nau.edu/school-of-informatics-computing-and-cyber-systems/">SICCS</a>). The Postdoctoral Scholars will work on projects focused on
mapping, monitoring, and modeling broad scale ecosystem changes. The work will
include extensive use of imagery from a range of sources to derive geospatial
products and test ecological hypotheses about the drivers and impacts of
changing disturbance regimes. The Postdoctoral Scholars will have the unique
opportunity to work closely with a diverse team of researchers focused on
ecosystem ecology (Michelle Mack and Xanthe Walker) and remote sensing (Scott
Goetz and Logan Berner). The positions will be based in Flagstaff, AZ and the
expected start date is January 2023.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"> </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"><u>Minimum qualifications:</u></p><div style="border:1pt none black;padding:0in;margin-left:0.25in;margin-right:0in">
