The USDA, Agricultural Research Service, Great Plains Systems
Research, Fort Collins, Co. is seeking a postdoctoral research
associate (Soil Scientist,). Ph.D. is desired. Salary is commensurate
with experience ($46,689- $60,700 per annum, plus benefits). There are
some citizenship restrictions. USDA is currently unable to sponsor
H-1B or TN Visas. The incumbent will develop a decision aid for
farmers to analyze potentials and risks of alternative crop rotations
for different soil and climatic conditions in the central Great
Plains. The validated system models GPFARM and RZWQM-CERES/CROPGRO
HYBRIDS will be used to synthesize and quantify the performance of
different rotations as a function of soil and climate conditions. Year
to year variability of results will be related to probability
distributions of rainfall and frequency, intensity, and timing of
natural hazards. GPFARM will be used to determine economic returns. A
graphical database/atlas of experimental data and model simulations
will serve to analyze potentials and risks. Refer to www.ars.usda.gov
for the full text announcement (RA-02-028H) and for complete
application instructions. Send application materials and reference.
