Funding for a Graduate Research Assistantship will be available for a
masters level student at Northern Arizona University starting in the
fall of 2010. Summer funding may also become available. The student
will be expected to assist on a research project funded through the
USGS to study the effects of climate warming on plant
species. Applications will be due Feb. 15 but encouraged as soon as
Feb. 1 if possible. This project requires an interest in plant
species, climate change, and geospatial modeling within a GIS
environment. Background or interest in any of these areas will be
beneficial. The research is likely to incorporate both field and
computer research aspects. The degree may be pursued in the Biology,
Environmental Science, Geology, or Quaternary Science departments and
programs. Contact [email protected] for information.
