<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span>Researchers at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor are seeking a
postdoctoral scholar to assess compound hazards associated with wildfire in the
Pacific Northwest. The postdoc will be part of a NASA-funded Earth Action:
Wildland Fires project to support proactive decision making to protect
vulnerable populations from coincident risks arising from heat, fire, and air
quality.<span></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><span>The postdoctoral scholar is expected to analyze satellite data,
climate model output, and geospatial socioeconomic data. They should have
experience working with atmospheric and/or remote sensing data, and an interest
in multi-disciplinary collaboration. Outputs of their research, specifically
analysis about the incidence of compound hazards and the driving climate and
atmospheric conditions, will be used to understand behavioral and public policy
responses to compound hazards and to improve adaptation to climatic changes and
fire conditions. The scholar will be supervised by Prof. Gretchen Keppel-Aleks
in the department of Climate and Space Sciences and Engineering and is expected
to work in person on the Ann Arbor campus.<span></span></span></p>
