The USGS Fort Collins Science Center seeks a natural resource scientist to provide support for a number of exciting ongoing research projects. The candidate will be part of an existing collaboration between USGS scientists and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) resource managers that seeks to coproduce science and data products that inform public lands decision-making. The major duties of the position are: 

  • Synthesizing science and conducting spatial and statistical analyses to understand and quantify the potential direct, indirect, and cumulative of different public lands decisions (e.g., energy development, livestock grazing) on resources of concern (e.g., wildlife, invasive plants).
  • Incorporating climate science into science synthesis products intended to inform analyses conducted under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).
  • Working in partnership with land managers to coproduce actionable science products that bridge the research-management gap and advance the practice of coproduction in a federal public lands context.
  • Developing publications, datasets, presentations, videos, websites, and other science products and communication materials to share science findings with science and resource management communities and the public.
  • Assisting with coordination and support of other landscape science projects, including science planning efforts on National Conservation Lands, that may involve diverse resources, actions, and drivers (e.g., rare plants, recreation, climate) and both ecological and social science aspects.
  • Operating a government owned or leased vehicle as an incidental driver.
