A postdoctoral research associate position is available in aquatic ecology. This position is part of University of Wyoming NSF EPSCoR grant titled “WyACT: Wyoming Anticipating Climate Transitions”. The postdoctoral researchers will join the aquatic team with three faculty at the University of Wyoming: Annika Walters, Sarah Collins, and William Fetzer. The successful applicant will use ecological and physical models to predict responses to climate change induced reductions in water availability. With the support of the interdisciplinary team, the postdoc will work to advance our understanding of how climate change affects aquatic ecosystems. The postdoc will develop their own research activities related to lake modeling, food webs, or flow-ecology relationships in the Upper Snake River, Green River, or Wind River watersheds, Wyoming. Potential focal systems include Jackson Lake, the upper Snake River in Grand Teton National Park, and alpine lakes in the Wind River Range. We are especially excited about candidates with expertise in physical lake models. More information about WyACT can be found at https://wyact.wyoepscor.org/.

The position is 100% research. The salary is $65,000 and includes a comprehensive benefits package. The anticipated start date is November 1, 2024, but is negotiable. The position is renewable for up to three years contingent upon performance.
