Graduate Research Assistantship in Tropical Forest Ecology in the School of Forest Resources and Conservation at the University of Florida. The M.S. or Ph.D. research assistantship begins in August 2011.
I am seeking a highly motivated, quantitatively skilled graduate student to work on tropical forest ecology. I study landscape patterns of species distribution, carbon cycling and forest structure/dynamics using a combination of modeling, remote sensing and field data. I am looking for a graduate student who is interested in one or more of these areas. My website http://www.sfrc.ufl.edu/faculty/Bohlman/index.html provides more details on the types of projects in which I am involved. Qualifications: A bachelor’s or master’s degree in biology, ecology, environmental science and demonstrated interest and competence/experience in ecology, modeling or GIS/remote sensing. Please email a resume and a letter stating your interests, background, qualifications and long-term goals to Dr. Stephanie Bohlman (sbohl...@ufl.edu). The assistantship will include an annual stipend, tuition and fees.
