PhD/MSc Position Available I am looking for a graduate student to join our lab to work on a study modeling how lake environmental factors affect the establishment of an invasive zooplankton species. This work is part of a large research network, the Canadian Aquatic Invasive Species Network. Work will focus extensively on developing predictive models of species presence-absence in relationship to lake morphology, water chemistry, fish species composition, and spatial connectivity. Research will relate to conditions associated with this particular species, plus the development of modeling approaches suitable for predicting species occurrence relative to habitat conditions. Ideally you have a strong quantitative interest and ability. I am interested in having someone begin September 2007 or in January 2008 at the latest. For details about our research group, please see our website http://www.zoo.utoronto.ca/jackson/ . If you are interested, please email me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) including your CV, statement of research interests, and the names of 3 potential references.
