Marine Fisheries Postdoctoral Fellowship

Location: Bas-St-Laurent-Est (Sainte-Luce)

Apply for a unique 18-month postdoctoral fellowship at Université du Québec à Rimouski, focusing on developing the firstOSMOSE ecosystem model. This model is pivotal for understanding climate change effects on marine fisheries.

In this role, you will undertake the calibration and application of the firstOSMOSE model in the Estuary and Gulf of St. Lawrence, a critical ecosystem facing rapid environmental changes. Your work will involve analyzing essential datasets, simulating climate impacts on marine food webs, and enhancing economic models for the fisheries sector. This fellowship promises a collaborative and innovative research environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Analyze datasets for ecosystem modeling

• Develop regional configurations for OSMOSE

• Calibrate the model using historical datasets

• Perform climate scenario projections

• Support collaboration with economic modeling efforts

Requirements:

• A Ph.D. in oceanography or ecological modelling

• Experience in population or marine ecosystem modeling

• Proficiency in programming languages like R or Python

• Ability to communicate effectively in English

• Experience working with large datasets

Be a part of transformative research for Quebec's marine ecosystems through this fellowship.
