Full Job Description

The New Mexico Forest and Watershed Restoration Institute (NMFWRI) is seeking a full-time (100% FTE) postdoctoral scholar with expertise in fire modeling and remotely sensed data to support innovative research. This project will improve our understanding of the conditions under which fuel treatments effect wildfire behavior and to evaluate long term post fire impacts within the Hermit’s Peak Calf Canyon Fire burn scar.

As NMFWRI is part of the Southwest Ecological Restoration Institutes (SWERI), The postdoctoral scholar will join a collaborative team of researchers, on the grant funded ReSHAPE project https://reshapewildfire.org/. The researcher will incorporate fuel treatment databases currently being developed as part of the national Treatment and Wildfire Interagency Geodatabase (TWIG). This researcher will leverage existing spatial data on landscapes, fire behavior, and fuel treatments to evaluate real-world wildfire-treatment encounters across diverse U.S. landscapes. The researcher will work closely with the staff of the three SWERIs to coordinate research using TWIG to ensure data quality and specificity is additive to potential uses, end users and analyses.

The incumbent will be responsible for processing and analyzing large remote sensing datasets (e.g., Landsat, Sentinel-2, MODIS) and spatial datasets (e.g., TWIG, FACTs, FTEM, field data) both locally with R/Python and via Google Earth Engine for treatment outcome research. Work will include analysis of spatial and related data (vector, raster, imagery) sufficient to support multi-scale and/or multi-resource assessments and monitoring. Knowledge of data and data management sufficient to create, transform and integrate data in a variety of resolutions and formats is necessary. Analysis will include running machine learning algorithms (e.g., Random Forest, CART) and regression models to derive ecological insights from big data sets. The project entails developing reproducible and scalable methodologies, using common software and programming languages, that can be used by land managers for decision making support.

We take care of our own!

Once hired, our Spatial Analyst Post Doc will be mentored by experienced GIS professionals and have a chance to teach us a thing or two as well! They will have many opportunities for professional development such as attending conferences and presenting their research. They will work with a passionate team engaged in and excited about education, ecological monitoring, and collaborative conservation.

As a New Mexico Highlands University employee, benefits include superb health, paid leave, and retirement benefits, an extended winter holiday break, and tuition waivers at New Mexico Highlands University.

Where you will work.

NMFWRI’s Spatial Analyst Post Doc will have the option for hybrid /remote work but must be willing to travel to New Mexico on a quarterly basis and attend regular virtual (zoom) meetings. In-state and out-of-state travel will be required, including attending conferences and regional meetings. Approved travel costs will be reimbursed.
