PhD in tropical plant ecology (Hawaii, USA)

A PhD position is available starting in Fall 2016 to join the Barton Lab in the Department of Botany, University of Hawaii at Manoa. The student will be supported on a graduate assistantship to contribute to a study examining the role of plant functional traits in the invasion dynamics of Hawaiian wet and dry forests. Research will be conducted in both the greenhouse and field, and students will gain expertise in a range of plant ecophysiological tools as well as experience in tropical plant ecology. Students will be expected to develop their own research project directly related to the funded research, or in other areas of plant ecology. Please see the lab website for further information about current research foci (http://seedlingscience.org/seedlingscience.org).

Interested students should send an email to Kasey Barton (kbarton@hawaii.edu) describing their educational and research experience and a statement of graduate research interests.
