Bird Conservancy is seeking a dynamic quantitative ecologist to join our flock as a post-doctoral research associate. The selected research associate will be expected to develop models and data visualizations that examine spatial and temporal variation in population dynamics and drivers of grassland bird declines using count-based monitoring data. Model outcomes will be used to inform conservation and management recommendations and will be compared to more data intensive demographic-based approaches (e.g., Integrated Population Models). Applicants are expected to have a strong quantitative background and analytical skill set using Bayesian approaches. Experience with large count-based data sets, data integration, N-mixture models, dynamic species distribution models, and interactive data v
