Northern Great Plains Science Specialist – World Wildlife Federation
The NGP program works to improve the status of the NGP as a fully functioning grassland ecosystem by: 1) sustaining intact grasslands and enhancing biodiversity across the ecoregion; and 2) restoring two flagship species— the Plains bison and the black-footed ferret. The Science Specialist is responsible for providing technical/scientific support in the development and testing of ecological theory and applied conservation with a focus on informing grassland conservation across the NGP program. The Science Specialist will assist with data management, synthesis, and analysis through the development of data products and statistical interpretation of existing and new datasets. The Scientist will disseminate information to NGP staff and partners, build and maintain collaboration with scientific partners, and provide support across all NGP projects as needed.
