Our research group is developing an agent-based simulation tool to understand how human and natural systems interact in response to agricultural best management practices (BMPs). This research will seek to identify and assess the factors influencing farmer’s responses to proposed BMPs, develop simulation tools to link agent-based models of farmer decision making to a hydrological model of nutrient loading, and model scenarios to explore the resilience of watershed systems to changes in […]

I am now accepting applications for a funded 4-year Ph.D. degree program in environmental economics at the University of New Hampshire (UNH). The selected student will conduct research on the economics of managing invasive plants in forests with heterogeneous landownership. The position is funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Institute for Food and Agriculture. Click here for more details on the project. The selected student will complete their Ph.D. in Economics at the […]

The Department of Natural Resources and the Environment at the University of New Hampshire (UNH) invites applications for a Postdoctoral Research Associate to work on an interdisciplinary project focused on the bioeconomics of managing invasive plants in forests with heterogeneous landownership. The project seeks to integrate models of landscape composition, invasive plant distributions, and bioeconomic models to address both basic and applied research questions about optimal invasive […]

SESYNC seeks two Assistant Research Scientists, one with expertise in agent based modeling, and the other with expertise in system dynamical modeling. These are two-year research faculty positions through the University of Maryland. Effort in each will be equally divided between conducting independent synthesis research and contributing to SESYNC’s programs and activities. The incumbents will have freedom and responsibility to design and conduct their own independent research program, […]
