Technician position at Los Alamos National Laboratory.  

The Earth and Environmental Sciences Division at Los Alamos National Lab has
support for a highly motivated individual interested in working on two DOE
funded studies of the mechanisms of vegetation mortality during drought. 
These projects are specifically focused on the carbon and water-based
mechanisms of mortality using field manipulations of precipitation and
temperature of piƱon pine-juniper woodlands, with opportunities extending to
modeling and remote sensing investigations of the distribution of mortality
and its consequences.  These are interdisciplinary studies involving
multiple academic and forest service collaborators.  The selected candidate
will split their time between analysis and management of large data sets,
field measurements, and laboratory analyses.  Opportunities to co-author
publications are abundant, and particularly strong candidates may be
considered to continue on for graduate degrees within these projects. 
Minimum qualifications include a B.Sc. at the time of appointment (M.Sc. is
acceptable), willingness to work in a team environment, and strong data
analysis experience such as with Microsoft excel.  It is desirable if the
candidate has experience using MATLAB, S-PLUS, or similar data analysis
packages, experience with dataloggers or other physiological
instrumentation, laboratory analysis experience, and a background in
biology, chemistry, computer science, or similar fields.  To apply, please
send a CV and very short statement of career goals to Nate McDowell
(mcdow...@lanl.gov, 505-665-2909).
