Position Summary: A post-doctoral researcher is sought to lead a study of rapid, climate-forced changes affecting Bering Sea walleye pollock, which currently support the largest food fishery in the world. The Bering Sea is experiencing unprecedented warming and loss of winter sea ice, resulting in a rapid northward range expansion of pollock. This project will use statistical modeling to improve our understanding of the implications of changing climate conditions and demersal fish community structure for pollock growth and distribution on a north-south gradient. The successful applicant will gain experience by collaborating with two established fisheries oceanographers working with cutting-edge concepts of emerging novel climates in productive boreal ecosystems. This position will be loca
