Landcare Research is leading innovation in New Zealand's management of terrestrial biodiversity and land resources to protect and enhance the terrestrial environment and grow New Zealand's prosperity. We collaborate with research institutes both in New Zealand and overseas, and partner closely with key stakeholders to maximise the relevance and effectiveness of our research.
University of Manitoba is seeking a qualified research associate to complement multidisciplinary research on ocean-sea ice-atmosphere (OSA) exchange of heat and mass within marine, sea ice and estuarine environments of the Arctic and sub-Arctic coastal zone. We seek candidates with backgrounds in oceanography, climatology or related fields. The ideal candidate should have a good understanding of the physics of ocean and or estuarine processes and be familiar with ocean going instrumentation such as ADCPs, current meters,CTDs, ocean optical sensors, etc.

The University of Stirling invites applicants for 2-year post-doctorate research fellowship positions for outstanding early career researchers. The Fellowships are designed to assist Fellows embarking upon an independent research career, with the prospect of transitioning to a lecturing position at the end of the Fellowship. Biogeochemistry is a research area we are actively expanding into with a professorial appointment expected in the first half of 2013, and we would warmly welcome applicants in this area to further develop our research in biogeochemical cycles.
Summary: The Atmosphere, Climate and Ecosystem Sciences (ACES) team within the Earth and Environmental Sciences Division at Los Alamos National Laboratory is seeking a highly qualified Postdoctoral researcher to work on cutting edge tree mortality quantification. We expect the candidate to develop and test a coupled model of vegetation dynamics and forest canopy reflectance and transmittance to quantify the amount of tree mortality from remote sensing imageries (LANDSAT/MODIS).

Savanna ecosystem and land surface modelling
========================================
We seek a postdoctoral research fellow to work in the area of Savanna
ecosystem and land surface modelling. The candidate will be engaged in
dynamic and multidisciplinary team to work on an ARC funded program on
“Australian Savanna Landscapes: Past, Present and future”. The appointee
will assess how Australian savanna systems function (carbon and water
cycles) in the present, how sensitive they have been to past climate
variability and how they may respond to future change. This will involve
