Organismic and Evolutionary Biology Position Description Harvard University invites applications for a postdoctoral position in terrestrial ecosystem dynamics in the laboratory of Professor Paul Moorcroft . The successful candidate will be involved in a process-based biosphere modeling study of tropical forests. The goal of the research project is to identify and characterize the underlying drivers of differences in the ways in which tropical forest ecosystems in the Amazon and Congo respond to climate variability and change. Basic Qualifications Candidates should have a Ph.D. and a strong background in terrestrial ecosystem ecology, terrestrial biosphere modeling or a related field. Applicants with previous experience with terrestrial ecosystem models or land-surface models are strongly preferred. Additional Qualifications
