Open Position!

I am currently seeking a PhD student to be part of a newly funded $4 million collaborative research project with the University of Vermont on how both rural human communities and species populations will respond to challenges posed by climate change. The research will focus on developing mathematical and computational models of cultural adaptation, and using them to analyze large datasets of climate change adaptation to rural farmers across the United States. The research will be used to help US farmers understand how to modify their practices in the face of ongoing climate change impacts. See the position advertisement here.
