Research Technician: Forest Community Ecology The Clark lab seeks one full-time research technician for fall 2006. We study plant community ecology and forest responses to global change (see <http://www.biology.duke.edu/clarklab/> for full project descriptions). Our research sites are located in the Duke Forest and in the Southern Appalachians in western North Carolina. Research technicians will help with several ongoing projects to study forest responses to canopy gaps and herbivore exclusion, monitor environmental variability using a wireless sensor network, and explore fungal pathogen ecology. The position involves mainly field work, but also some laboratory analyses. Experience with field work and ecological research a plus, but not required. Start and end dates flexible, but preferably from September through December. Compensation is $9.00/hour. Housing and transportation will be provided for trips to the Appalachians.
