I am recruiting graduate students into my lab at Texas Tech University to work
on fire ecology and plant ecology. There is great leeway for individual
graduate projects, but the themes of my lab's research are described at
www.schwilk.org. Possible areas of research include effects of climate change
on vegetation in fire-prone communities, plant ecological strategies and
fire, post-fire seed germination biology, and community composition effects
on flammability. Funding is available through competitive research assistant
fellowships to strong applicants who apply immediately. For more
information, contact Dr. Dylan Schwilk. ([email protected]). Links to
specific application procedures and deadlines are available at
