The Southeast Climate Adaptation Science Center (SE CASC) in partnership with Consortium host NC State University is seeking a Postdoctoral Scholar in research synthesis to further climate adaptation science and practice in the Southeast and US Caribbean region. The mission of the SE CASC is to help fish, wildlife, ecosystems, and people adapt to a changing climate. The SE CASC focuses on the co-production of actionable science for natural and cultural resource management. Significant research has been geared toward understanding climate change exposures and impacts to wildlife, fish, and ecosystems, resulting in a wealth of data and literature resources. One of the grand challenges is analyzing and synthesizing this research to create products that are usable and used by natural and cultural resource managers to make decisions about climate adaptation.

We seek a Postdoctoral Scholar who is interested in quantitative data analyses and syntheses to facilitate end-user support and who is interested in mentoring groups of SE CASC graduate student fellows through team science synthesis projects. Synthesis could include, but is not limited to, the social and ecological effects of variation in water availability (i.e., extreme flow, drought, etc.) on aquatic and/or terrestrial ecosystems; climate-change mediated range shifts or invasive species; or the use of traditional knowledge in climate adaptation for integrated resources management. The Postdoctoral Scholar will be co-mentored by faculty in SE CASC and NCSU working on relevant research topics.

Collaborate with teams of management partners and regional and national postdocs working on synthesis projects.
