Stream Fish and Amphibian Ecology at the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest
We are seeking 2 summer research assistants to conduct sampling for stream vertebrates and associated measurements of habitat and food resources.
These research assistants will use established field protocols for study of cutthroat trout, pacific giant salamanders, tailed frog tadpoles and stream macroinvertebrates. They will also collect measurements of instream habitat and chemical characteristics.
These positions will begin around July 9, 2018 and continue into early September, 2018.
The research assistants will be based at the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, in the Oregon Cascades near Blue River, Oregon. The Andrews Forest was established in 1948 as an US Forest Service Experimental Forest, and since 1980 is one of the National Science Foundation's Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) sites. The field station has modern apartments with full kitchens, a well-equipped computer lab, and wireless internet.
The jobs have been posted: https://jobs.oregonstate.edu/postings/57237 . Applications will be reviewed starting April 9.
This posting is for current students. If you are not a student and are interested in working with us this summer, please contact Sherri Johnson (sherrijohnson@fs.fed.us) for more information.
