Graduate Student Research Associate We seek a highly motivated student with excellent academic credentials and previous research experience to lead a cross-site nutrient and herbivore manipulation study in northern Colorado and southern Wyoming. These sites are two of over 50 sites that comprise the Nutrient Network, a global study of the controls on productivity and diversity in grasslands. The study can be expanded to include interactions between nutrients, herbivores and other factors, such as global changes. The successful candidate will play an important role in determining the nature of the full study. The successful candidate will enroll in the Graduate Degree Program in Ecology at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado. We prefer a student who has a masters degree and wishes to pursue a doctorate. However, qualified candidates without masters degrees will be considered. The project advisers are Julia Klein, Cynthia Brown and Dana Blumenthal. For more information and to apply, contact Julia Klein after December 30, 2008 by email at julia.kl...@colostate.edu. Review of applications will begin immediately.
