Dear Colleagues,
This is a reminder or a first look for those who may have missed the earlier posting.
The Alaska Climate Adaptation Science Center (AK CASC) and the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) are seeking an early career researcher interested in snow avalanches, climate change, and natural resource management in Alaska. The postdoctoral research fellow will join a collaborative, regionally focused research effort and lead a research project that includes delivering actionable science that meets the needs of stakeholders and decision-makers.
The prospective postdoctoral research fellow will contribute to an internationally collaborative research project involving AK CASC, UAF, Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS), and WSL Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research SLF (Switzerland). The fellow will have considerable latitude in developing a research plan that matches their expertise and interests with the needs of Alaska's stakeholder and management community within the context of the broader research focus, which seeks to improve scientific understanding of the effects of a changing climate on snow avalanches in Alaska and the impacts on natural resources and people in their natural and built environments.
The position will be based at the International Arctic Research Center (IARC) at UAF and is funded for one-year with an opportunity for a second year. Applications received by January 7, 2022 will be prioritized.
