*Post doc research opportunity in Ireland*- The School of Agriculture 
and Food Science, UCD Forestry is seeking to recruit a Postdoctoral 
Research Fellow for up to 24 Months. The overall demand for roundwood in 
Ireland is expected to increase from to an estimated net realisable 
volume of 85 Mm^3 . There will be an increase in the timber traffic on 
public roads, in accordance with this forecasted increase in timber 
supply. Therefore, a more sustainable, safer and cost effective approach 
in the form of a GIS based agreed routes map is needed to manage the 
transport of this increased woodflow. This map will be used by timber 
hauliers as part of the timber extraction planning process. The routes 
will be agreed between local authorities and district forest managers 
and private forest owners, identifying the strongest and safest routes, 
to avoid increased congestion around small towns and villages, reduce 
excess wear and tear on vulnerable roads and avoid excessive weight 
across roads. The development of the road database and GIS map will look 
at developing a road cost matrix to determine whether timber access 
routes are either fail or based on 4 main criteria - agreed routes, 
consultation routes, severely restricted routes and excluded routes. In 
addition, this map will be used to identify important routes that need 
maintenance and upgrading work. A mobile app RouteTagger will also be 
developed to help build a database of road conditions, primarily for the 
lower class timber access routes for use in planning for all state and 
private harvesting sites. If interested in this position please go to 
the UCD HR Vacancies website http://bit.ly/1gktVf2 and search by 
Reference Number 006423. From Charles Harper, UCD, Ireland.

*Biometrician Position*- Ooutreach for Portland, Oregon, USA. (U.S. 
Citizens only). Leah Rathbun writes/," I will soon filling a 
biometrician position to work for the Vegetation Inventory and 
Monitoring Program here in Portland, OR. The position is an analyst 
position which will be focused on using monitoring data on National 
Forest lands to answer forest management questions and legislative 
requests. If you know of anyone who is interested in applied statistics 
and has a solid background in sampling design methods, GIS systems, and 
basic programming skills will you please pass this on. Since this 
position will be advertised at a GS 11/12, the applicant will be 
required to have at least 3 years of graduate education leading to a PhD 
(holding at least one degree in forestry) or at least a bachelor's 
degree in forestry with equivalent work experience." /For more 
information, contact Leah at LRathbun at fs.fed.us
