Dear all, I would appreciate help to spread this announcement of a researcher/postdoc position at the Swedish Species Information Centre in Uppsala, Sweden http://www.slu.se/sv/om-slu/fristaende-sidor/aktuellt/lediga-tjanster/las-mer/?eng=1&Pid=2038
Best regards, Tord Researcher/postdoc: Simulation of future forestry and population viability analyses The Swedish Species Information Centre is a national center for species and habitats. We contribute to a sustainable management of the natural resources by collecting, analyzing and make data available, and by describing and presenting facts about biodiversity. We interact nationally and internationally, with the benefit for conservation in focus. We are now recruiting a person who will work on simulation of future forest development as part of (meta)population viability analyses. You will simulate forest dynamics and forest management at landscape or regional scales. This includes simulation of future scenarios and optimization. The simulations of the (meta)population dynamics of different species will be made simultaneously, in collaboration with the research group’s ecologists. Formulation of scenarios and management strategies will be made together with the participating stakeholders. The simulations will be made with Heureka, which is a spatially explicit tool for forest planning, optimization and impact assessment (www.slu.se/en/sha). The research is funded by Formas. -- Tord Snäll Professor Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences ArtDatabanken/Swedish Species Information Centre Box 7007, SE-750 07 Uppsala Besöksadress: Bäcklösavägen 10 Telefon: +46(0)18-67 26 12, Mobil: +46(0)76-766 26 12 www.slu.se/artdatabanken www.slu.se/artdatabanken/tordsnall
