We are seeking a motivated postdoctoral research associate to work on drought and the implications for fish. The overall goal of the project is to link hydrologic and fisheries data to understand the ecological effects of drought. The postdoctoral associate will continue development of techniques using spatial and temporal data to define water availability in streams, and link those findings to ecologically relevant metrics (e.g. fish occupancy, growth, and movement). The position will involve a combination of modeling (hydrology and fisheries) and fieldwork.
The Coastal and Estuarine Ecology Lab (https://patricklab.weebly.com/) is seeking two students (masters or PhD level – see detailed descriptions below) interested in pursuing community ecology questions in aquatic (freshwater/marine) ecosystems at the College of William and Mary, Virginia Institute of Marine Sciences. We conduct research grounded in theory to understand the factors that control the spatial distribution of aquatic organisms and the effect of community organization on ecosystem processes. Our theoretical research occurs across a

Postdoctoral Fellow position available in invasion ecology with Drs. Hugh MacIsaac and Sarah Bailey. We seek candidates for a position to address risk assessment associated with colonization pressure in aquatic invasion ecology. The successful applicant will review pertinent literature, assess risk associated with mock zooplankton communities in experimental mesocosms, and model relative risk associated with colonization pressure and propagule pressure in ballast water communities. Appointment is initially available for one year, with renewal contingent on funding.
