Postdoctoral scientist in landscape ecology of non-native forest insects Drs. Ward and Perry.Overview: Drs. Samuel Ward and Kayla Perry (Department of Entomology, The Ohio State University) are seeking a postdoctoral research associate to characterize patterns of detection and phenology for native and non-nativescolytines (bark and ambrosia beetles) in forest ecosystems.Duties: The project will involve:- Developing models to quantify how environmental factors (e.g., weather, host tree abundance) and landscape context (e.g., land use, ecoregion) influence the abundance and diversity of scolytines arriving at biosecurity traps deployed atseveral locations across the continental United States (40%).- Comparing the spatiotempo
