Job description
Project Description
To conduct its mission, the Department of Defense (DoD) makes use of 27 million acres of natural lands and waters around the globe. These lands provide the contiguous, unencumbered spaces needed to train for assigned missions under realistic conditions. Faced with numerous change agents, including adjacent development, sea level rise, climate shifts, and invasive species, the best available science is needed to maintain these resources.
The mission of the DoD Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP) and the Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP) is to demonstrate innovative, cost-effective, and sustainable solutions to meet DoD's environmental and installation energy challenges. However, ecosystem transformations are occurring faster than most federal agencies can currently manage and adapt.
Although mission planners, engineers, and natural resource managers of military lands have identified needs to adapt to ecosystem change, a pathway to communicate with the research community does not exist, slowing the development of innovation that responds to operational needs. More deliberate coordination is required to accelerate the pace of adopting new technologies and approaches to adaptation planning in concentrated DoD landscapes.
Thus, the DoD established the National Innovation Landscapes Network (NILN) with partner research and land management agencies to increase the pace of innovation in conservation management, reduce duplicative efforts, and transfer new technologies across representative federal landscapes. We are seeking personnel to join our team of talented professionals to support the NILN.
