Postdoctoral Research Associate position in Pollination Ecology - University
of Florida

Employing unit: Florida Museum of Natural History 

Start date: October 1, 2011 

Duration: The position is full-time fixed term for two years. 

Post type: Postdoctoral Research Associate, full-time, fixed-term 

Pay Rate: $32,000-$32,960 per year (2 years) 

We are seeking to appoint a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to
coordinate large-scale field experiments assessing the role of various
roadside vegetation management practices (mowing frequency, wildflower
augmentation) for enhancing habitat and floral resources for insect
pollinators. The successful applicant will be responsible for developing and
analyzing a dataset of pollinator diversity resulting from insect surveys
undertaken in north-central Florida. 

The position will begin as soon as a qualified applicant is found and is
available for a two year period. Qualifications: a Ph.D. in ecology,
entomology, or a related field; demonstrated expertise in collecting field
data and managing large field research projects; excellent organizational
skills; and strong data analysis and writing skills. Preference will be
given to applicants with prior experience working with native bees or
pollination biology. Taxonomic knowledge of both pollinators (especially
native bees) and plants is desired. Landscape ecology, GIS and modeling
skills would be welcomed but are not essential. 

The post will report directly to the project Principal Investigator, Dr.
Jaret Daniels, and will receive general guidance and training from him and
the other Principal Investigator Dr. Delano Lewis. The successful applicant
must be self-motivated and able to work independently and on their own
initiative, and as part of a multi-disciplinary team. 

To ensure full consideration please apply online at http://jobs.ufl.edu
(requisition # 0809126.). The application should include: (1) cover letter,
(2) curriculum vitae with the names and contact information of three (3)
references. Any questions regarding this position may be directed via email
to Dr. Jaret C. Daniels, Florida Museum of Natural History, University of
Florida (jdaniels at flmnh.ufl.edu).
