'''Postdoctoral Research Associate positio … '''Postdoctoral Research Associate position available'''<br></br></br>A Postdoctoral Research Associate is sought to join a consortium of academic partners analyzing</br>contemporary and future challenges to food-energy-water systems (FEWS) of the Northeastern and</br>Midwestern United States. Extreme weather will continue to challenge the performance of FEWS-related engineered and natural infrastructure, and serve as a major force shaping future decisions on environment, economy, and national security. This project responds to this imperative by creating the C-FEWS (Climate-induced extremes on the linked Food, Energy, Water System) research framework to advance modeling, data integration and assessment capabilities in support of hypothesis-based research on regional FEWS dynamics. It is also designed to support policy-making by identifying alternative management strategies under changing climate and weather extremes over multitemporal time horizons to 2100.</br></br>The project is seeking a creative, self-motivated, and energetic post-doctoral fellow assist, coordinate various aspects of, and be trained for a leadership position in the field.</br></br>'''Eligible fields of expertise:'''<br></br>Modeling, numerical methods and/or geospatial data analysis training in any of the following areas: hydrology, environmental systems analysis, environmental engineering, energy assessment, ecosystem services evaluation.</br></br>'''Primary responsibilities:'''<br></br>* Execute large-scale food-water-energy nexus modeling studies;</br>* Data integration from Earth System science and human dimensions perspectives;</br>* Analyze role of traditional engineering assets and ecosystem services in regional food-energywater</br>systems;</br>* Under the general supervision of the Senior Research Director and PIs, perform simple-tocomplex research tasks, investigations, and analytical activities independently;</br>* Formulate scenarios of potential future trajectories of FEWS conditions and management</br>responses;</br>* Integrate across individual project elements (models, data) by helping to create and apply a</br>holistic analysis framework.</br></br>'''Qualifications and skills sought:'''<br></br>* Strong numerical skills;</br>* Modeling, data visualization geospatial analysis (GIS);</br>* Ability to write clearly, including technical reports & peer-reviewed scientific publications;</br>* Presentation skills for internal team meetings and scientific conferences;</br>* Capacity to participate in team-based research and lead various aspects of the work, including</br>project management.</br></br>'''Other duties:'''<br></br>* In coordination with project lead, execute project management on various aspects of project;</br>* Interdisciplinary interactions with a modeling team;</br>* Consultation with other researchers and authorities in the field as appropriate;</br>* Interact and help mentor graduate and undergraduate students who are affiliated with the project;</br>* Ability to travel domestically;</br>* Work well in team environment but with ability to perform research independently;</br>* Preparation of annual and other administrative reports;</br>* Organize planning meetings and events, web-based communications as necessary.</br></br></br>Starting salary: $58,000</br></br></br>'''Core competencies/qualifications:'''<br></br>Candidate should have completed a Ph.D. by the time of appointment in an appropriate field of study, or specialty, from an accredited institution in project-related fields.</br></br></br>'''How to apply:'''<br></br>Please submit as separate documents your CV, a statement of research interests, two recent reprints, and contact information for three references here: https://www.rfcuny.org/careers/postings?pvnID=RC-1909-003296.</br></br>For further information and questions, please contact Prof. Charles J.
