Funding is available immediately for 2 graduate positions, either MSc or PhD, to study plant, seed, or seedbank ecology on topics such as the following: invasion, biogeography, ecophysiological differences in invasive plant species from different regions, climate change in the Yukon Canada, invasive maple species in Southern Ontario, cushion plants in the Hudson Bay lowlands of Northern Manitoba, or seedbanks in California.
Study start date: immediately, i.e. September 2006. For more information please visit http://www.onepoint.ca Students would be supervised by Dr. Christopher Lortie at York University in Toronto, Canada but collaborate with other scientists depending on the project (research on invasive plant species projects all involve Dr. Hierro from Argentina and Dr. Ragan Callaway from Montana, while northern research would involve either Dr. Roy Turkington or Dr. Rick Bello, both in Canada). Only Canadian citizens are eligible for the funding on these projects. Please contact Dr. Christopher Lortie at York University, Toronto via email if you are interested. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
