        REDD+ has grown in
        scope from being a cheap mitigation option and opportunity to
        address the
        15-20% of global GHG emissions attributed to deforestation into

        conservation as
        well as deliver co-benefits such as biodiversity conservation
        and poverty

        of governance
        have entered this emerging policy field. This conference takes
        stock of these

        social science
        perspectives and discusses the role of justice and equity in

        The CEES group is developing and refining approaches to
        producing more
        accurate, comparable and compatible earth system models and
        their components.
        We are seeking first-rate scientists with a passionate interest
        in, and
        scientific and technical ability to dramatically improve models
        of key earth
        system components such as marine and terrestrial ecosystems.
        Candidates must be
        interested in and be able and motivated to tackle significant
        methodological
        challenges (e.g., enabling detailed model intercomparisons, in
        accounting for,
        inferring, and propagating multiple sources of uncertainty and
        in enabling the
        identification of the optimal spatial, temporal and abstraction

        journals. You
        will be expected to produce leading scientific research in the

        work, publish results in top scientific journals, and interact
        closely with
