Funding is available to support two Ph.D. students at Washington State Un=
iversity (Vancouver).=20
These students will participate in a collaborative, multi-year, National =
Science Foundation-funded=20
effort to understand interactions between physical mixing of water and ch=

biogeochemical dynamics. If interested in either position, please contact=
 Dr. Steve Henderson=20
(steve_henderson at vancouver.wsu.edu) or Dr. John Harrison (john_harrison at w=
su.edu).

Required background: math, physics/engineering, or environmental sciences=
 (for hydrodynamics=20
position), or chemistry/environmental science (for biogeochemistry positi=
on). Admission=20
requirements and application materials for the Ph.D. in Environmental Sci=
ence at WSU Vancouver=20
are available at http://cas.vancouver.wsu.edu/environmental-science. Ph.D=
