The Alpine Treeline Warming Experiment is a multi-site field
experiment at Niwot Ridge, CO, testing projections of upward shifts
in the elevational ranges of subalpine and alpine species
(<https://alpine.ucmerced.edu/pub/htdocs/index.html>https://alpine.ucmerced.edu/pub/htdocs/index.html).
We seek a lead field and data research associate to maintain and

algorithms; maintain Campbell datalogger, multiplexer, and
communications equipment in the field to ensure dataset continuity;
develop, maintain and execute QA/QC algorithms for a range of
environmental sensor types; train field staff; maintain records; and
communicate regularly and effectively with the project PIs and other
collaborators. Other responsibilities may include managing seasonal
research assistants, contributing to research articles, and/or
mentoring undergraduate researchers, depending on the skills and
experience of the candidate. Candidates must be physically fit for
outdoor fieldwork at high elevations. The position is based near
Boulder, CO and is available immediately. Please direct inquiries to
