[ECOLOG-L] advice on metadata standards and software

[Brian Anacker]

Hello,

I am beginning a metadata project for Boulder's Open Space and Mountain 
Parks Department. I would like some advice of which metadata language 
and software I should consider. 

The project is focused on tabular data for now, with the possibility of 
expanding to spatial data in a later phase. I am currently looking into 
EML as a standard and the software program of Morpho. 

Does anyone have success or horror stories around creating metadata for 
your organization? Is one format or software better than another? Thanks 
for your feedback. I will repost with a summation of the replies.

[ECOLOG-L] Postdoc: Assessing the sensitivity of North American ecosystems to climate variability

[Smith, William Kolby - (wksmith)]

Postdoc: Assessing the sensitivity of North American ecosystems to climate 
variability

The School of Natural Resources and the Environment is hiring a Postdoctoral 
Research Associate I to work in the The Ecosystem Climate Dynamics Laboratory. 
The ideal candidate will be a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher 
interested in studying the sensitivity of North American ecosystems to climate 
variability utilizing a combination of novel field-, modeling-, and remote 
sensing-based approaches. The postdoc’s primary mentor will be Assistant 
Professor, Bill Smith, and 
funding will be available for up to 3-years based on satisfactory performance. 
Funds will also be available to cover travel costs for select workshops and 
national meetings.

An initial focus will be semiarid ecosystems. Recent global analyses suggest 
that semiarid ecosystems have played a major role in driving increasing 
interannual variability of the global land carbon sink. The candidate will have 
the opportunity to explore these trends in depth by evaluating the ability of 
different satellite indicators to detect interannual variability of gross 
primary productivity (GPP) and evapotranspiration (ET) measured at 25 eddy 
covariance sites distributed across gradients in temperature (2 – 25 °C) and 
precipitation (100 – 1000 mm) for southwestern North America. Remote sensing 
indicators of interest include normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), 
enhance vegetation index (EVI), photosynthetic reflectivity index (PRI), and 
solar-induced fluorescence (SIF). There will also be opportunities for the 
selected postdoctoral researcher to develop and explore their own research 
questions within the scope of the project.

The postdoc will have the opportunity to work closely with a diversity of top 
research labs at the University of Arizona, including the Arizona Remote 
Sensing Center, Terrestrial Vegetation 
and Climate Lab, Terrestrial Ecology 
Lab, and Laboratory of Tree Ring 
Research. In addition, the candidate will have the 
chance to collaborate with and learn from scientists at the USDA – Agricultural 
Research Service and the US Geological Survey. Finally, there will be 
opportunities to contribute to research focused on improving satellite-based 
estimates of disturbance, land use change, vegetation productivity, and 
evapotranspiration underway at the University of Montana 
(NTSG).

Required Qualifications:
*   Candidates must have earned their Ph.D. by 01/01/2017.
*   Demonstrated experience in ecosystem science and a broad perspective on 
ecosystem processes and climate feedbacks.

Desired Qualifications:
*   Candidates should exhibit a strong ability to collaborate with an 
interdisciplinary team.
*   Strong organizational and communication skills (both oral and written).
*   Prior experience with spatiotemporal data and geospatial analysis using R, 
Python, and/or other computer programming languages is highly desired.
*   A proven publication record in peer-reviewed scientific journals and a 
demonstrated high level of productivity.

The postdoc will be housed in the state-of-the-art Environment and Natural 
Resources 2 building at the University 
of Arizona. The University of Arizona has been recognized on Forbes 2015 
America’s Best Employers in the United States and has been awarded the 2015 
Work-Life Seal of Distinction by the Alliance for Work-Life Progress.

If you are interested in applying for this position, please 1) contact Bill 
Smith 
(wksm...@email.arizona.edu);
 and 2) apply through the University of Arizona UACAREERS web portal: 
https://uacareers.com/postings/13707. Applications should consist of a full 
curriculum vitae, a 1-page statement of research interest, a pdf-file of one 
publication, and the contact information for three references. We will start 
reviewing applications on 11/01/2016.

[ECOLOG-L] Postdoc position in long-term population dynamics

[Jonas Knape]

The Department of Ecology at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, 
Uppsala, Sweden, conducts internationally strong empirical and theoretical 
research and education aimed towards sustainable forestry, agriculture and 
conservation. Our research on populations, communities and ecosystems forms the 
basis for our research on the effects of land use and climate on animals, 
plants and soil. We aim at finding solutions that will contribute to improve 
greenhouse gas balances, conserve threatened species, support biodiversity and 
ecosystem services, sustainable wildlife management, and pest management in 
forest and agricultural landscapes, as well as in urban areas. However, we also 
work with basic questions concerning the ecology, evolution and dynamics of 
populations and especially from a landscape and land use perspective.

Duties: Our study of long-term population dynamics is concerned with population 
persistence in a spatially and temporally varying environment, and include 
studies of habitat-specific demography and growth rates; how annual growth 
rates and demographic rates are affected by environmental variability 
(including climate); density dependence, source-sink dynamics, evolutionary 
dynamics of selection patterns and how to use integrated population models to 
increase the precision in estimates. These, and other potential topics, will be 
explored using data from a long-term study (24 years) of breeding wheatears SE 
Uppsala, Sweden. This database includes detailed data on demography, phenology 
(arrival time and breeding time) and habitat choice in an agricultural 
landscape (with annual data on landuse) SE Uppsala, Sweden. The postdoc is 
expected to develop an own research agenda in collaboration with a research 
group consisting of several researchers with different skills and expertise in 
the subject area.

Qualifications: Applicants should hold a doctoral degree or equivalent 
scientific qualification. Experience of handling and analysing longterm 
population data, population dynamic modelling, statistical modelling and a good 
ability to express oneself in written and spoken English will be considered 
when assessing the applicant. The main emphasis in the assessment of 
applications will be placed on scientific skills. Particular emphasis is placed 
on the candidate's experience and expertise in analysing and modelling longterm 
population data and the ability to cooperate and to work independently. As 
postdoctoral appointments are career-developing positions for junior 
researchers, we are primarily looking for candidates with a doctoral degree 
that is three years old at most.

Place of work: Uppsala
Form of employment: Temporary emplyment as postdoctor for 2 years.
Extent: 100%
Starting date: By agreement
Application: We welcome your application marked with Ref no. SLU ua 3830/2016.

Please submit your application to the Registrar of SLU, P.O. Box 7070, SE-750 
07 Uppsala, Sweden or registra...@slu.se no later 
than November 7, 2016.

Specific documents attached: Please provide a motivation letter, a short 
description of your main research interests regarding this position (including 
previous achievements and future plans; maximum 2 pages), CV, and proof of 
dissertation.

For further information please contact Tomas Pärt 
(tomas.p...@slu.se) or Debora Arlt
