**Research Area of Interest**

Landscape ecology plays an important role in identifying principles for global biodiversity conservation. For example, landscape connectivity and landscape-scale principles for habitat protection and restoration are key elements in high-profile international agreements, such as the Global Biodiversity Framework signed at Kunming-Montreal COP 15.

The successful applicant will have a strong track-record of research in landscape ecology with an emphasis on how landscape structure influences species and biodiversity. For example, their current and planned research might address questions including, but not limited to: Which native habitats should be protected, and how? And how much of each? How do habitat fragmentation and more generally the spatial configuration of landscapes influence biodiversity? What measures of habitat connectivity are relevant to species conservation? Do different taxa respond differently to these questions? When and how can we scale up research results over small areas to make inferences about species protection over larger spatial extents? What are the most relevant spatial extents for habitat protection and restoration?

**About the Academic Unit**

The chair will join the Department of Biology ( a prominent unit within the Faculty of Science with 38 full-time faculty members with research strengths spanning molecular biology and genetics; biochemistry, physiology, and toxicology; data science; genomics and bioinformatics; neurobiology and behaviour; and ecology, evolution and conservation.

**Qualifications**

The position requires:

- a PhD in biology or a closely related field (Carleton requirement)
- an excellent track record of research output, including a demonstration of the potential to become a world leader in landscape ecology for biodiversity conservation
- a track record of working in one or more of the following areas: (i) aspects of landscape ecology relevant to species conservation; (ii) scaling theory and cross-scale analyses; (iii) spatial analyses such as species distribution modelling or conservation planning; (iv) ‘big data’ analyses using biodiversity data and remote sensing data; (v) design and implementation of landscape ecology field studies; (vi) advanced statistical methods for large, heterogeneous problems
- a track record of attracting and supervising graduate students
- demonstrated ability to develop the foundations for an externally funded, internationally recognized research program
- experience in advancing equity, diversity, and inclusion in the discipline
- demonstrated potential for outstanding teaching contributions.

**Application Instructions**
- curriculum vitae
