Postdoctoral opportunity - Cross-site study of nutrient fluxes from Experimental Forest watersheds We have funding for a postdoctoral researcher to evaluate long-term stream chemistry and stream flow data from US Forest Service Experimental Forest and Range (EFR) research watersheds across the country. The postdoc will help to develop ideas, conduct analyses, and collaborate on manuscripts for publication in peer-reviewed scientific literature using long-term nutrient data from these forested watersheds. Nutrient responses include seasonal and long term trends at reference sites as well as before and after natural disturbances and land use treatments.
