Dear Colleagues,

Please spread the word about a new two year Climate Change Science Fellowship in The Nature Conservancy's California chapter. Here is the link<https://careers.nature.org/psp/tnccareers/APPLICANT/HRMS/c/HRS_HRAM.HRS_CE.GBL?Page=HRS_CE_JOB_DTL&Action=A&SiteId=1&JobOpeningId=44185&PostingSeq=1> for the position. This is an excellent opportunity for a motivated person!

Best, Dick

About the position: The California chapter of The Nature Conservancy is the largest of the Conservancy's operating units, with an extensive portfolio of conservation work across the marine, freshwater and terrestrial realms. To help advance the science needed to address the major conservation challenges of our day, the chapter has established two-year fellowship opportunities for leading conservation scientists to join its diverse team of ~30 applied conservation scientists and climate policy experts, and help provide the science foundations to advance its place-based and policy-based strategies. Currently, we seek a Fellow to lead scientific analyses examining the statewide opportunities, constraints and strategies to align natural resource conservation activities with the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from ecosystems. There are three priority components to this position: help assess the science basis of different management and conservation activities in terms of their potential to reduce emissions or increase sequestration; develop analyses, tools, and studies to implement scenarios of GHG reduction potential statewide given alternative land use/land management and restoration activities; and communicate results of the research through peer-reviewed publications, policy briefs and multimedia visualizations. The Fellow will also work closely with the climate policy staff to ensure  that  the  products developed support the chapter's public policy goals and strategy. The focus of this Fellowship will be on California terrestrial ecosystems, but knowledge and background of integrated freshwater hydrologic analysis and/or coastal systems is a plus. The successful candidate will have expertise in one or several of the following areas:  using models to develop scenarios of ecosystem response to climatic and land use changes, using models to develop scenarios of GHG reduction potential from ecosystems based on changes in land management and use, development of science basis for landscape-scale or jurisdictional carbon accounting, integration of land use change scenarios and spatial optimization tools to identify priority areas for conservation of multiple ecosystem services.
