Socio-Ecological Risk Modeler for Small Islands
1 month ago
A 2-year full-time postdoctoral research position is available at the Faculty of Environment, University of Waterloo, Canada. The primary responsibility of the postdoc will be to develop a dynamic, non-linear socio-metabolic model.
This model aims to comprehend and analyze socio-metabolic risks and tipping points related to resource-use patterns and consumption behaviors on small islands. The model will be both generic and adaptable to specific island cases, potentially serving as an interactive web-based tool.
The successful candidate will collaborate with the project team at the University of Waterloo and partners internationally. In addition to developing and testing the socio-metabolic model, the postdoc will contribute as lead or co-author on research publications. Opportunities to present co-authored research at national or international conferences and co-supervise graduate students recruited for socio-metabolic risk assessment and modeling are also available.
Candidates must have a doctoral degree in engineering, environmental studies/science, geography, or related disciplines with expertise in resource and/or risk modeling of socio-ecological systems. Proficiency in System Dynamics Modeling and state-of-the-art tools and software is required, along with a demonstrable interest in addressing social-environmental real-world problems from a systems perspective.
An asset for this position includes knowledge of one or more of the following techniques/methods: Geographic Information System (GIS), Agent-Based Modeling (ABM), Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs), and Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA).
The postdoc position offers a gross salary range of CAD $45,000 – 50,000 per year, inclusive of all benefits. The work location is the University of Waterloo, with a flexible work-from-home option of 1-2 days a week. Candidates must reside in Ontario, Canada during the period of employment.
