PDRA in Fire Management Modelling – Full Time, Fixed Term until 31/03/2027
The PDRA Fire Management Modelling will work on the LEMONTREE (Land Ecosystem Models based On New Theory, observations and Experiments) project and will be part of a team of scientists developing new fire modelling capacity, based on eco-evolutionary optimality theory. The PDRA will be explicitly responsible for designing an approach to incorporating fire management strategies into a new fire model. They will also be responsible for evaluating and optimising the performance of the new components, and assessing the potential impact of alternative fire management strategies on risk mitigation under future climate change. The PDRA will be based at the University of Reading. They will collaborate with project scientists involved in the LEMONTREE Fire Working Group at the University of Reading and Imperial College and in the Leverhulme Centre for Wildfires, Environment and Society, and will also be expected to interact with other members of the LEMONTREE team.
