Postdoctoral Researcher Position:
State of Alaska's Salmon and People Synthesis at NCEAS
Application deadline September 9, 2016

The University of California, Santa Barbara’s National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS) invites applicants for a 100% time Postdoctoral scholar position to support synthesis research and working group collaboration for a new project – State of Alaska’s Salmon and People (SASAP). The position will be based at NCEAS in Santa Barbara, CA with the regular travel to Alaska anticipated. The SASAP project is jointly led by Dr. Frank Davis, NCEAS and Dr. Ian Dutton, Nautilus Impact Investing.

SASAP consists of multiple working groups of experts to provide an up-to-date interdisciplinary perspective on Alaska’s salmon systems and the people who rely upon them. Our mission is to create an equitable decision-making platform for all stakeholders by addressing the information gaps in Alaska’s salmon system through information synthesis, collaboration, and stakeholder engagement. SASAP seeks to answer three core questions: what do we know, what do we not know, and how can we better integrate and share what we know about Alaska’s salmon system for better decision-making?
