Job opp: summer field crew in forest dynamics

Friday, March 8, 2019 to Wednesday, March 20, 2019

We are hiring a crew of three people to collect data for a study of tree growth and mortality in mature and old-growth forests of Oregon and Washington.  This research is part of the Pacific Northwest Permanent Sample Plot Program (http://pnwpsp.forestry.oregonstate.edu).  Our objective is to understand the long-term patterns and mechanisms of forest dynamics across a diversity of forest types in the mountains of the Northwest.  We seek individuals who are interested in ecological research, are detail-oriented, enjoy working outdoors as part of a team, and can live cooperatively with others.  The crew will be based at the Andrews Forest and will travel to other sites in the Northwest.  For more information, see full announcement (pdf).
