Dr. Chi Chen's lab at Rutgers' Department of Ecology, Evolution, and Natural Resources ( DEENR ) is seeking a Post Doctoral Associate interested in the broad area of terrestrial ecosystem dynamics . Using a combination of ground-based, remote sensing and numerical model simulated data, the successful candidate will lead research on 1) developing new remote sensing theories and algorithms to monitor regional to global vegetation activities; 2) identifying and constraining key processes of how vegetation interacts with the terrestrial carbon, water, and energy cycles; and 3) understanding the drivers (including anthropogenetic and natural) and climatic consequences of regional to global ecosystem dynamics. Dr. Chen's research on ecosystem dynamics aims to benefit land management practices and provide guidance for nature-based climate solutions, including but not limited to cooling surface temperatures, enhancing net terrestrial carbon sink, securing food/agriculture production, improving urban planning, and protecting the terrestrial ecosystem under climate change and human activities.
Overview
The School of Environmental and Biological Sciences, located on the George H. Cook Campus, is one of the largest schools of Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey. We pursue excellence in research, teaching, and outreach in areas of study that address the biological spectrum from molecules to ecosystems. Our emphasis is on both the fundamental sciences and the social and human dimensions. The Department of Ecology, Evolution and Natural Resources is an interdisciplinary department specializing in ecology, evolution, and natural resource conservation. We study the evolutionary origins and maintenance of biodiversity, conserving and restoring native ecosystems, and issues of global change such as managing natural resources within urban ecosystems. This is a grant-funded position whose eligibility for renewal will be contingent upon available funding and satisfactory performance.

Rutgers University-New Brunswick, Canada Rutgers University Full timePosting SummaryThe long-term goal of this research project is to understand how meiosis is regulated. Successful execution of meiosis involves specialized, coordinated and tightly regulated events, errors in which can lead to infertility, miscarriage and birth defects. The project will explore one of two fundamental meiotic processes in the mouse model...
