Following the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill in 1989, the oil-impacted areas of
the Gulf of Alaska have been extensively monitored to examine impacts of
the spill on the ecosystem and to assess and promote recovery of
impacted species. NCEAS has collaborated with investigators from Gulf
Watch Alaska and the Herring Research and Monitoring program to collate
historical data from a quarter century of monitoring studies on physical
and biological systems impacted by the spill
NCEAS now seeks**one or two**Postdoctoral Associates**to conduct
synthesis research for the Gulf of Alaska while in residence at NCEAS
for two years starting Summer/Fall 2014. Successful candidates will
utilize data gathered by NCEAS, along with other existing information,
to conduct and publish holistic synthesis and analyses of driving
processes and perturbations within complex ecosystem of the Gulf of
Alaska. Postdoctoral Associates will pursue their own independent
synthesis of the available Gulf of Alaska data while also collaborating
with two Gulf of Alaska long-term synthesis Working Groups. APPLICATIONS
DUE BY JUNE 9, 2014*.*
