I'm posting this on behalf of my former department. They just got approval for the search. It is not an environmental position per se but the department is very supportive of environmental work. It is a great place for anyone with northern/Arctic/circumpolar interests but that's not a limiting factor either. Having spent the last 20 years there, I would be happy to answer questions, off the record.
