> A position is available for a full-time research technician to help facilitate and conduct field and laboratory research under the supervision of Dr. Pamela Templer at Boston University. He or she will help manage a laboratory composed of undergraduate and graduate students, as well as visiting scientists. Research projects in the lab focus on the effects of climate change, atmospheric pollutants, and urbanization on nutrient cycling, water, and carbon exchange in temperate forest ecosystems. Tasks include the collection and chemical analysis of plant materials, soil, gas, and water samples. For sample analysis, the Research Technician will be trained in and use a gas chromatograph, carbon-nitrogen autoanalyzer, and colorimetric methods. The Research Technician will be primarily responsible for specialized methods in the lab, including (but not limited to) isotope analysis, sap flow measurements, and data management. The Technician’s time will be split between approximately 30% field work (at Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest in New Hampshire, Harvard Forest, and Boston in Massachusetts) and 70% lab work and data analysis (at Boston University).
