We are inviting applications for a postdoctoral researcher to lead a novel community/citizen science initiative bridging climate change, ecohydrology, and the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) in STEM.
The candidate will be engaged in the implementation of a new program to distribute and collect climate data across the Windsor-Essex region of southwestern Ontario, Canada. The project aims to exploit the full potential of researchers and citizen scientists working collaboratively, including extending and up-scaling existing databases into accessible information assets that promote action on the Great Lakes management challenges, developing a sustainable program for training of citizen science leaders that integrates into existing education programs, developing the next-generation of data collection tools and software, and solving challenges related to data validation and optimally deploying sensor infrastructure.
Spanning urban to agricultural, including greenhouse environments, this position offers a unique opportunity to work with experts and community members to inform locally made solutions to combatting climate change and implement novel educational programming.
The successful candidate will have expertise across dimensions including, but not limited to, ecosystem and/or hydrological sciences, software engineering, geospatial analysis, educational research and/or outreach experience.
Please see enclosed ad for further details and information on how to apply.
