The Forest Dynamics Lab at the University of Alabama is seeking a PhD student to investigate forest disturbance and stand development. The primary mission of our lab is to provide science-based solutions to pressing forest management issues. The PhD student will work on a project in applied forest ecology, with an emphasis on forest stand dynamics and disturbance ecology, the results of which will be used to refine and develop new silvicultural systems following natural patterns of disturbance and stand development. We seek a student with a background in forestry, ecology, environmental science, or a related field that preferably has research experience in field and lab settings. Applicants will be evaluated based on their statement of interest, academic record, recommendation letters, and prior experiences. Funding is available through a Graduate Assistantship. The position carries a full tuition waiver, a stipend, and health insurance. Additional funding for conference presentations will also be provided. Fellowships through the University of Alabama Graduate School are available for exceptional applicants. Interested students should contact Justin Hart (hart013(at)ua.edu) and should provide a statement of interest, resume or CV, and unofficial transcripts. Additional information is available at Forest Dynamics Lab: https://sites.ua.edu/fdl.
