GRADUATE RESEARCH ASSISTANT/ASSOCIATE: 2 half-time graduate student assistantships; tentative starting date June 1, 2008.
Location: Department of Natural Resource Ecology & Management, Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, Oklahoma
Descriptions: Two graduate student research positions (Ph.D. or M.S.) are available to study rangeland ecosystem ecology. In many rangeland ecosystems, the belowground population of plant meristems (the bud bank) plays a primary role in plant population dynamics, species diversity, stability, and resistance to invasion. Our project will test hypotheses on environmental factors regulating bud bank dynamics and their ecological consequences in rangelands across the Great Plains. This research is funded through USDA collaborative funding with Kansas State University (D.C. Hartnett). In addition to stipend, benefits include tuition waiver (up to 6 hours per semester) and student health insurance.
Contact: If interested, please email a letter stating your interest in the program and a resume to: Dr. Gail Wilson, OSU Dept. of Natural Resource Ecology & Management, 008C Agricultural Hall, Stillwater OK 74078-6013, phone (405) 744-5539; e-mail gail.wilson@okstate.edu; to apply to the departmental graduate program, please visit http://nrem.okstate.edu/graduatestudents.html
