Graduate positions in forest/urban ecology and terrestrial biogeochemical cycling research are available in Andrew Reinmann’s lab in the Environmental Sciences Initiative at the Advanced Science Research Center of the Graduate Center, City University of New York.
I am seeking a PhD student to start Fall 2018. Funding is available through a combination of research and teaching assistantships. My lab studies carbon and nitrogen cycling in forest and urban ecosystems, encompassing topics that include forest ecology/productivity, tree physiology, land use and land cover change, and climatic controls on ecosystem carbon exchange and storage. Students would pursue a degree in either the Biology (Ecology, Evolutionary Biology and Behavior; January 1st application deadline) or the Earth and Environmental Sciences (December 15th application deadline) program at the Graduate Center, CUNY (www.gc.cuny.edu) and conduct research at the CUNY’s interdisciplinary state-of-the-art research and instrumentation facility, the Advanced Science Research Center, Environmental Sciences Initiative (http://environment.asrc.cuny.edu/). Applicants should be independent and highly motivated with experience conducting academic and/or field research. If interested, please send a letter with your research interests, experiences, and career goals, along with a CV (including GRE scores and GPA) and contact information for 3 references to Dr. Andrew Reinmann (andrew.reinm...@asrc.cuny.edu). To learn more about my lab, please visit http://environment.asrc.cuny.edu/people/andrew-reinmann/. Note, because of the close deadline, please contact me ASAP if you are interested.
