I am seeking a PhD student interested in studying coexistence and/or climate
change impacts on semi-arid plant communities. At least four years of full
funding is available. During the first year, the student will lead a field
study to describe patterns of soil water use in dominant plants of the
sagebrush steppe. After the first year, the student will have complete
freedom to develop independent research. Work in my lab often combines
long-term observational data, experiments, and models
(http://www.cnr.usu.edu/htm/facstaff/adler-web). To apply, please email me
([email protected]) a statement of interest, a CV, and contact information
for three references. I will give special consideration to applications from
women and minorities. Please let me know if you would like to meet at ESA in
Portland.
