Soils Field Tech in Alaska The UAF Forest Soils Laboratory (FSL) seeks a Field Technician to conduct the field related portion of FSL research projects, including performing necessary fieldwork and other related duties. The majority of FSL research is centered on forest ecology and soils projects in interior Alaska. Fieldwork currently involves: automated and manual collection of weather and soil data (rainfall, temperatures, soil moisture, soil respiration, etc.), various types of sample collections (soil and vegetative matter), site maintenance (including seasonal setup and take-down). Most FSL work takes place within an hour's drive of the UAF campus, primarily in the Bonanza Creek Experimental Forest or the Caribou Poker Creeks Research Watershed. However, with the potential start of the NEON program in Alaska, work at remote sites may be included in the future. Although most of the field work is performed during the spring, summer, and fall some data collection and site maintenance is performed during the winter. Potential applicants may view the full position description and apply at www.uakjobs.com/applicants/Central?quickFind=60853 Application deadline is October 28, 2007. If you would like more information concerning the position, please contact: Dr. John Yarie at 907-474-5650 or at ffjay@uaf.edu. |
