Research Technician at the University of New Mexico
The Department of Biology is seeking a highly qualified Field Research Tech. The successful candidate will be responsible for the day-to-day operation of a cluster of six eddy flux towers across an elevation gradient in Central New Mexico. We are using these towers to increase our understanding of atmosphere-biosphere interactions and climate- land surface feedbacks in well represented upland biomes throughout the Southwest. The candidate will maintain all tower flux systems and will work with an interdisciplinary group of faculty, postdoctoral and graduate researchers to make additional physiological and ecological field measurements associated with this project. The candidate will participate in data management, data analysis, and the preparation of peer-reviewed publications of research findings. Candidates with a background in micrometeorology and/or plant physiology and technical expertise with eddy covariance-based flux measurement equipment are encouraged to apply. This position will be based in UNM Biology and will require frequent day travel to field sites.
