global UC Wild Solar Team of the Wild Energy Center (<a href="http://www.WildEnergy.org" target="_blank">www.WildEnergy.org</a>) at the University of California Davis invite applications for an interdisciplinary postdoctoral scholar position to conduct ecosystem
service assessments of different types of PV projects, including their benefits and costs(relative to conventional PV project types), to support California state- and local PV approval processes, industry needs, and decision-making. In addition to a supportive
academic mentoring team, each UC Wild Solar Postdoctoral Scholar will be matched with at least one non-university end-user âÂ?Â~Champion MentorâÂ?ÂT.<br>
The postdoctoral scholar will build on lessonâÂ?ÂTs learned from previously published data while incorporating novel developments based on the applicantâÂ?ÂTs creativity and scholarship. For all assessments, the postdoctoral scholar will be responsible for

� ecosystem service assessment;<br>
� techno-economic assessment;<br>
� energy science;<br>
� knowledge co-production (<a href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41893-021-00755-x" target="_blank">https://www.nature.com/articles/s41893-021-00755-x</a>); and/or,<br>
� energy modeling.<br>
<br>
The postdoctoral scholar will be responsible for identifying relevant environmental, financial, logistical, zoning/permitting, and legal barriers to their implementation, and identify enablers and/or cost reduction opportunities. Lastly, the postdoctoral scholar
will be responsible for using results from the assessments to lead the development of peer-reviewed journal articles as well as industry spreadsheet tools and guidance to allow developers/operators to evaluate costs and benefits of implementing specific biodiversity-friendly
mitigation strategies, as well as identifying approaches to reduce biodiversity-friendly mitigation costs.<br>
