RECREATIONAL ECOLOGY IN THE YELLOWSTONE TO YUKON (Y2Y)

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><b>Summary: </b>The
Y2Y vision is an interconnected system of wild lands and
waters stretching from Yellowstone to Yukon, harmonizing the
needs of people with those of nature. As well as providing
wildlife habitat and holding important ecological values,
outdoor spaces are places where people recreate. Identifying
how and where people and wildlife co-occur in landscapes is an
important part of “large landscape conservation”. This 2-year
applied research project will focus on identifying and mapping
where people recreate in the Y2Y region, and compiling and
modeling the ecological impacts of different types and
intensities of use. The results will be used to inform and
manage access.

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Project description:</b> The University
of Northern British Columbia (Dr. Pamela Wright, UNBC) and the
Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative (Dr. Aerin Jacob,
Y2Y) seek one postdoctoral fellow to work on this two-year
funded project. The appointee will lead a team of researchers,
conservationists, and partners in the US and Canada to:
