Integrated Statistics is looking for a postdoc to work on a joint
project between scientists at the National Marine Fisheries Service and
the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution examining the ecology of forage
species, especially meso-pelagic fishes and euphausiids, at the New
England continental shelf break and slope. The successful applicant will
quantify patterns in the abundance and distribution of these taxa in
relation to environmental conditions (e.g., CTD data, satellite
observations, climate indices) via statistical analysis and will
quantify their interaction with higher predators, especially commercial
fishes, via stomach content data and evacuation rate models. These
analyses will draw upon multiple existing datasets, including: stomach
content data collected during stock assessment surveys (1973-present);
zooplankton net surveys (1977-present); bottom trawl surveys
(1973-present); and other fishery-independent surveys. This is a
two-year position and comes with discretionary funds for travel
($5k/year) and equipment ($2.5k).
Requirements/Education:
- PhD in fish ecology, fisheries oceanography, fisheries, or related field.
- Quantitative background, experience in programming and statistics,
especially spatial statistics and multivariate analyses (e.g., GLM, GAM).
Location:Woods Hole, MA
Compensation:$50K/year or $24/hour + health, dental, 401K, paid
vacation, sick and federal holidays.
