Subject: [EdSection] Post doc position at Missouri: fish thermal ecology
All,

See below about a post doc position I am hiring.  A fairly short deadline as we are trying to get someone in this summer.

Thanks,

Craig Paukert


POST DOCTORAL RESEARCH ASSOCIATE:
thermal ecology of stream fishes to inform species status assessments

Agency/location: Missouri Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit, School of Natural Resources, University of Missouri; Columbia, Missouri

Responsibilities:

1.       Identify linkages among multiple thermal metrics (e.g., thermal preference, optima, and maximum) that define lethal and sublethal effects of temperature on stream fishes.

2.       Use laboratory-based experiments to determine the metrics identified in objective 1 for two rare stream fish species, Ozark Shiner and Blacknose Shiner

3.       Work with the Missouri Department of Conservation, US Fish and Wildlife Service, and other stakeholders to integrate objectives 1 and 2 into prioritizing stream reaches with greatest conservation value in a changing climate, and help inform the Ozark Shiner Species Status Assessment by the US Fish and Wildlife Service.


Qualifications: PhD in fisheries or related program.  Ability to work effectively in a team and with agency biologists is critical; experience in stream fish conservation, thermal ecology and species distribution models preferred; strong analytical (e.g., GIS, spatial statistics) and organizational skills, demonstrated ability to present and publish results.

Stipend: $50,000/year plus benefits.  Position will be for a minimum 2 years, based on annual funding allocations.

Closing date: Review of applications will begin April 1, 2021 and is open until filled. Start date is summer 2021 but flexible based on covid restrictions.
