A 2 year Post-Doctoral Research Associate position is available at the
University of California, Santa Cruz as a part of a study with PIs Dan
Costa, Mike Goebel, & Marm Kilpatrick. The study is at the interface
between marine mammal behavior, demography, and environmental variability.
Although extensive research has demonstrated impacts of acoustic disturbance
on marine mammal behavior, translating these effects into population level
impacts has not yet been possible. We seek a post-doc to analyze
demographic data from long term datasets, integrate several datasets on
demography, behavior and environmental conditions, participate in planning
experimental field manipulations, and prepare manuscripts for publication.
The ideal candidate has a strong statistical and modeling background and
some familiarity with the literature on marine mammals, foraging behavior,
and demography.
Please send a cover letter with a short description of research
interests,
a CV, and contact information for at least 3 references to Marm Kilpatrick,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Review of applicants will continue until position is
filled.
