We are seeking a Postdoctoral Research Assistant (PDRA) for a new interdisciplinary project to build an agent-based model (ABM) to represent the extraction of fish by fishing vessels in open ocean fisheries and the associated effects on ocean ecological systems. The goal of this effort will be to identify pragmatic fisheries management strategies tailored both to the complexity of the ocean ecosystem, and the limitations of the relevant social, economic and regulatory systems. The PDRA […]
