We seek creative, solution-oriented candidates with an interdisciplinary background in a range of environmental specialties. Our areas of interest include, but are not limited to, earth systems and natural processes, their interactions related to biology, biodiversity and conservation, ecology, climate modeling, atmospheric sciences, physics, oceanography, human population, and environmental health; environmental and climate science -- both theory and practice; ecosystem resilience, structure and function; global and/or regional environmental change and its differential human impacts; urban environmental science; food, energy, and water; socio-ecological and systems modeling.
