<span lang="EN-US" style="color:black">Background: We are recruiting a post-doctoral associate to lead a collaborative project advancing the study of extreme weather and climate in species distribution modeling. This will involve the development and application
of models to produce accurate predictions and conduct statistical inference on the vulnerability of bird species to future climate change. The post-doc will have access to data from the citizen science project, eBird (<a href="https://ebird.org/home"><span style="color:#954F72">https://ebird.org/home</span></a>),
one the fastest growing biological inventories in the world and freedom to develop research questions within the broader objectives of the project.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
