Job Opportunities

Postdoctoral Fellow in Decision Support Systems for Sustainable Ecosystem Services

Dr. Julia Baird and Dr. Gordon M. Hickey are seeking an exceptional postdoctoral researcher to conduct research on ecosystem services management and natural resource governance in Canada, with a particular focus on understanding the mental models guiding different actors and the social-ecological relationships that exist in a selection of Canadian resource use landscapes. The postdoctoral fellow (PDF) will have some freedom to define their research focus as long as it aligns with the general focus on (1) developing decision support systems that can enhance the sustainable management of ecosystem services in a sample of typical production landscapes in Canada; and (2) how tradeoffs between various ecosystem services manifest in these different resource management contexts. The position is based in the Environmental Sustainability Research Centre at Brock University and will require close collaboration with a diverse team of scholars from across Canada.
