Taxa include plants, ground beetles, small mammals, and microbes.  Goals include quantifying interactions and dynamic changes in distribution and abundance.  A PhD degree in statistics is preferred, but ecology and earth sciences will also be considered.  Experience with hierarchical
modeling required.  Up to two years, starting as early as Sept 2015. Salary competitive and negotiable.  PIs on the project are Jim Clark (Duke), Rob Dunn (NCSU), Alan Gelfand (Duke), Roland Kays (NCSU), Wenhong Li (Duke), and Diana Nemergut (Duke).
