Post Doc in Geographical Ecology of Prairie Food Webs
A new NSF DEB grant to Mike Kaspari and Nate Sanders supports a 3-year postdoc
who will join us to explore the Geographical Ecology of invertebrate plant
consumers across North American grasslands, meadows, and roadways. Our focus is
on the role sodium and other micronutrients play as unique catalysts of the
vigor, abundance, activity, and diversity of above- and below-ground
communities. We will combine geographical snapshots from across North America
with field and lab experiments to identify and explore mechanisms. It will be
grand.
We are looking for an ecologist with expertise in invertebrate
ecology and an interest in testing big picture models that combine Ecological
Stoichiometry, Metabolic Ecology, and Trophic Ecology. Proposed starting date
as soon as January 2017. To apply, email Mike Kaspari
([email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>) your CV and a letter of introduction
that includes a summary of your most relevant research experience, your future
research plans, and contact info for at least two references. Check out our
lab's webpage at michaelkaspari.org<http://michaelkaspari.org>.
