PhD Assistantship, Native Fish Restoration
Montana Cooperative Fishery Research Unit, USGS, Montana State University,
Bozeman
Responsibilities: We seek a PhD student to conduct research on native
fish restoration strategies and tactics. Potential topics include
evaluation of introduced-species eradication programs (with subsequent
reintroduction of natives) or influences of thermal biology on
restoration efforts, but other aspects of native species restoration are
also possibilities. Innovative ideas are welcome.
Qualifications: MS in fisheries, ecology, or a related field and a
minimum 3.0 GPA and 1100 (V+Q) GRE. Applicants should have a strong
interest in applying ecological, physiological, or population biology
concepts to solving native fish restoration problems. Creativity and
quantitative skills are desirable, as are a good work ethic, field and
laboratory experience, demonstrated research productivity, ability to
work both independently and cooperatively, professional activities, and
people skills.
Salary: Stipend is $1,400 per month, plus non-resident tuition waiver.
Closing Date: Until filled.
Contact: Send letter of interest, resume, names and phone or email
addresses of three references, an example of technical writing, and copy
of transcripts and GRE scores (photocopies, scans, and email attachments
acceptable) to:

Post-Doctoral Associate Position Available. This position provides a one year
(minimum) opportunity for a wildlife ecologist to research several questions
concerning restoration of Florida's Everglades Ecosystem. The primary task is
analysis of long term radio telemetry, population, and community ecology data
collected during studies of American alligators in Florida's Everglades. Additional
options exist for involvement in short term, original research on reptiles and
amphibians of the Everglades. We seek an individual who has a strong ecological
background with a firm understanding of current statistics and population biology.
Our expectation is that the individual will generate multiple manuscripts in
combinations of senior and junior author. Although analytical and writing skills
are primary, ability and desire to work collaboratively with a large, diverse
scientific team also is desirable. The position will be located at the University
of Florida's Davie Agricultural Research and Education Center near Ft. Lauderdale.
The position is funded in the UF Department of Wildlife Ecology and Conservation
through the FL Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit. Collaborators include
the USGS Florida Caribbean Science Center, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation
Commission, the US Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Park Service.
Provide Resume and 3 references to Dr. Kenneth G. Rice (Ken_G_Rice@usgs.gov).
