begin August 2014. Fellows will undertake socio-environmental or
cyberinfrastructure synthesis projects that will be co-developed with a
SESYNC Research Collaborator, who will also serve as a postdoctoral mentor
during the fellowship.



Synthesis is a research approach that accelerates knowledge production by
distilling or integrating existing data, ideas, theories, and methods to
draw more reliable or generalizable conclusions and to reveal novel areas
of study. Synthesis often involves merging large and/or heterogeneous data
sets from multiple sources, researchers, or fields of inquiry, as well as
critical analysis in evaluating arguments and interpreting evidence.



We seek a diverse group of Postdoctoral Fellows in the social, natural, and
computational sciences. Areas of previous research should be relevant to
socio-environmental synthesis or synthesis education, including (but not
limited to) anthropology, computer science, ecology, education, economics,
geography, history, mathematics, political science, psychology, public
policy, planning, sociology, statistics, etc.



RESEARCH COLLABORATORS



Interested fellowship applicants must first submit a pre-screening
application, accepted on a rolling basis. Successfully pre-screened
applicants will receive the list of SESYNC Research Collaborators;
fellowship applicants should initiate contact with potential Collaborators
with whom they might be interested in co-developing a synthesis research

[ECOLOG-L] PhD Assistantship - Tropical avian ecology and conservation decision-making

2014-02-19 Thread Holly Menninger
I'm just the messenger here -- please direct all inquiries to Dr. Krishna
Pacifici (jkpac...@ncsu.edu)

*PhD Assistantship - Tropical avian ecology and conservation
decision-making: exploring the influences of landscape level disturbances
on species distributions.*

We are recruiting a PhD student in the fall of 2014 to work on a unique
project focused on understanding geographic variation in avian population
dynamics as a function of landscape level environmental stressors (e.g.,
land-use, climate) in order to inform conservation decisions.  The student
would join the Collazo and Pacifici research lab and would collaborate with
an interdisciplinary team of ecologists (Collazo and Pacifici) and
statisticians (Brian Reich and Eric Laber, NCSU) to develop and apply
Bayesian hierarchical population and community level models to inform a
conservation design project in Puerto Rico.

The centerpiece of this project is a habitat conservation strategy that
ensures the long-term persistence of resident avifauna. The final outcome
will be a decision model that will identify spatially-explicit actions to
increase the amount of protected land from the actual 8% to 15% in the
island.

The student will be housed in the Department of Applied Ecology at North
Carolina State University (http://projects.cals.ncsu.edu/appliedecology/).  The
ideal candidate will have a strong interest in avian ecology, birding
skills, but also a strong background in quantitative ecology and population
demography. Applicants with previous experience in the following areas will
be given priority: estimating demographic parameters (e.g.,
mark-recapture), presence/absence (e.g., occupancy), Bayesian hierarchical
modeling, stochastic optimization and decision-making for natural resource
management (i.e., Adaptive management), managing large databases, and
programming skills (preferably R, BUGS/JAGS, and GIS). An M.S. degree in
Ecology, Wildlife Biology, Statistics, or other similar fields is preferred.


Interested applicants should send a cover letter including a description of
their research interests, CV including GRE scores and GPA, and names and
contact information for 3 references to Drs. Jaime A. Collazo (
jcoll...@ncsu.edu) and Krishna Pacifici (jkpac...@ncsu.edu), or at 225
David Clark Labs, Department of Applied Ecology, North Carolina State
University, Raleigh, NC 27695-7617. Applications should be submitted by May
1, 2014 at the latest. We will review applications as they arrive.

2014-02-19 Thread Peter Lahanas
2014 SUMMER COURSE ANNOUNCEMENT (June 15-July 10)
 
FIELD COURSE IN NEOTROPICAL HERPETOLOGY (NEH B-14)
 
COURSE LOCATION: Bocas del Toro Biological Station, Boca del Drago, Isla
Colon, Republic of Panama.  The biological station is located on a beach
facing 
the Caribbean Sea.  Coral reef and seagrass ecosystems lie out in front of
the 
station and lowland tropical rain forests lie directly behind. This
juxtaposition of 
the two most biologically diverse ecosystems provides tremendous
opportunities 
for education and research. See: http://www.itec-edu.org/index.html for
details.
 
INSTRUCTOR: Dr. Peter N. Lahanas, Institute for Tropical Ecology and
Conservation (ITEC),  tel:352-367-9128, email: laha...@itec-edu.org,
web: http://www.itec-edu.org/herpetology2.html,  Specialty: Neotropical
herpetology, forest ecology, animal behavior, biogeography, molecular
genetics 
of sea turtles.
 
COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course will emphasize the ecology, behavior,
biogeography and systematics of the amazingly diverse Neotropical
herpetofauna. The material covered is equivalent to a university upper-level
course in herpetology.  The course is divided into three parts.  During the
first few days students will become familiar with the many ecosystems found
in our area and with the trail systems during "orientation" walks.  The bulk
of the first 10 days will be spent learning field techniques and carrying
out various group projects or exercises (see below).  Midway through the
course the entire station community will take a 3-day field trip to the
cloud
forests of Boquete (see details below).  On returning to the field station,
students work on their individual research projects and continue to receive
lectures or other activities in the evening.
 
Formal Lectures:  Formal lectures will take place in the classroom and will
include the use of PowerPoint presentations and chalkboard. Lectures will
generally be given in the evening so that more daylight hours can be spent
in the field.  Lecture topics will include:
 
oHistory of Neotropical herpetology
oEvolution of amphibians and reptiles
oOverview and classification of amphibians
oOverview and classification of reptiles
oHistorical biogeographic relationships
oReproduction strategies and mating systems
oEcology, reproduction and genetics in marine turtles
oLife history strategies
oEvolution of polymorphism in poison dart frogs
oHerp-human interactions
oConservation issues

Informal Lectures:  Informal lectures will be provided periodically during
orientation walks, during group field projects or in discussion groups.
These will cover a wide variety of topics and will generally be prompted by
what we encounter in the field, or by the direction taken during group
discussions.
 
Readings:  Readings corresponding to lecture subjects will be assigned in
the texts.  We will also read and critique papers brought by students and
faculty and additional readings may be assigned from time to time.
 
Required Texts:
Pough, F. H., et al. 2004.  Herpetology.  3rd ed. Prentice-Hall, Inc., New
  Jersey.
Köhler, Gunther. 2008. Reptiles of Central America, 2nd edition. Herpeton,
verlag
  Elke Köhler.
Köhler, Gunther. 2011. Amphibians of Central America, 2nd edition. Herpeton,
  verlag Elke Köhler.
 
Note: These books are expensive but will enhance your herping experience
during the course.  Copies are maintained in the field station library.
 
Field Book:  A water-proof field notebook will be required in the course.
 The field book will contain all data related to group projects and
independent research project.  The field book should also contain all other
incidental observations such as species lists, behavioral notes, etc., and
contain detailed location information.
 
Group Field Projects, Exercises, Demonstrations and Excursions:  These
projects are designed by the faculty and worked on in groups of four or six
students.  The purpose of these projects is to familiarize students with an
array of field sampling techniques and equipment commonly used in field
studies.  With help from a faculty member, students set up projects, collect
data, and generally (depends on the project), analyze data, present the
results to the class, and write a report.
 
Group Project, Demonstration and Excursion Topics.
oForest night hikes
oPopulation biology in poison-dart frogs
oTail flicking behavior in geckos
oComparative leaflitter herpetofuana
oSoropta Beach, nesting leatherbacks
oCanopy herpetofauna (canopy access techniques)
oCave ecology, bats, rats & snakes
oSoropta canal, iguanas, caimans and crocodiles
oHerpetofuanal biodiversity analysis

oResource partitioning in frog breeding colonies
 
Individual Research Projects:  Working closely with faculty, students will
be responsible for designing and completing an original herpetological
research project of their choosing.  These projects will b

[ECOLOG-L] A course on Species Distribution Modelling at Imperial College London

2014-02-19 Thread Naimi, Babak
Dear List,

This may be of your interest: a course on SDMs at Imperial College London 
(Silwood park campus), 14 - 21 July 2014

The course “Species distributions models: concepts, methods, applications, and 
challenges” aims to introduce the fundamental concepts underpinning ENMs, 
describe the methods currently in use, and discuss the strengths and 
limitations of ENMs for different applications. We also plan to have 
specialized seminars introducing emerging concepts and next-generation 
approaches for modelling species distributions. The course gives equal weight 
to theory and application. The students will have the opportunity to learn how 
to run ENM with R and they will be asked to bring their own data (if such data 
are not available we can provide our own data). During two days the students 
will analyse these data and prepare a small report for discussion in the class.

Lecturers:
MBA - Miguel B. Araújo (Imperial College London, UK)
RGP - Richard G. Pearson (University College London, UK)
ICP – I. Colin Prentice (Imperial College London, UK)

groups at ETH Zurich and WSL that share similar interests, and with other
relevant institutions both nationally and internationally. The overall goal
of this professorship will be to develop an integrative approach that
focuses on the temporal and spatial interactions between processes such as
competition, animal and plant dispersal, natural disturbance dynamics and
the drivers of environmental change, so as to develop a predictive
understanding of how landscape patterns emerge.

The new professor will develop an internationally recognized research
program focusing on the interactions between the spatial patterns of land
cover and ecological processes, with implications for the provision of
multiple ecosystem services. His or her research will contribute to the
development of new concepts to assess, predict and manage landscape dynamics
at regional scales over decades to centuries.The new professor will be
expected to teach undergraduate level courses (German or English) and
