It is > a great opportunity! Thank you, Britt > > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Post-Doctoral Fellow, Ph.D., or M.Sc. Position > Critical Thermal Habitats in Rivers > Canadian Rivers Institute > > Beginning immediately, a position is available to work on our developing > models to predict the occurrence and significance of critical thermal > habitats in rivers. The project has three objectives: 1) building landscape > and riverscape scale models to predict river temperatures as we work to > understanding the physical process regulating temperatures in temperate and > northern rivers, e.g., summer, coldwater anomalies; 2) understanding the > function and significance of temperature-dependent habitats for fish, and > primary and secondary production in these river ecosystems; and 3) developing > management tools for land-use and climate change planning. Your experience > and interests should include hydrologic processes connecting rivers to their > landscape and the biology of river ecosystems. You should have experience > and/or ability to quickly learn GIS and multivariate statistical analyses. > The position can begin immediately and will be filled by the fall 2012. Send > me a cover letter explaining which component of the project interests you and > why, along with your résumé with references. > > Allen Curry > Director, Canadian Rivers Institute > Professor, Biology Forestry and Environmental Management > DNR/Cloverleaf Professor of Recreational Fisheries > Assistant Director, NB Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit > Biology Department > University of New Brunswick > Fredericton, NB.
