Graduate Assistantships in Biogeochemistry - Univ. Central Florida Two funded assistantships (at the RA or TA level) are anticipated for Fall 2016 to support students interested in pursuing a masters or doctoral degree in Biology, with a research focus in biogeochemistry. The Aquatic Biogeochemistry Lab (ABL) at the University of Central Florida is part of a cluster initiative dedicated to improving the understanding of Sustainable Coastal Systems. Our research seeks an interdisciplinary approach to investigating the impacts of stressors and disturbances (e.g., sea level rise, storm surge, urban stormwater runoff) on the ecological functioning of wetlands and coastal ecosystems. Key interests of our group include: understanding carbon dynamics in flooded soils, utilizing natural systems to remove excess nutrients in surface water, and investigating soil microbial responses to environmental stressors.
