I am seeking a graduate student to join my lab to conduct M.S. research on geospatial dynamics of ephemeral wetlands as a function of land-cover change, with subsequent characterization of dynamic landscape connectivity.
Prospective students will be funded for three years by a 9-month/year departmental Teaching Assistantship and possibly by additional graduate school fellowships (with awards ranging from $2500 for 1 year to $30,000/yr for 3 years).
Preference will be given to students with experience/coursework in landscape ecology, remote sensing, and GIS.
Skills that will be acquired
Experience with ArcGIS
Experience with Google Earth Engine
Experience with R
Connectivity analyses
Curation of spatial datasets
Scientific communication
