The Northern Research Station is hiring a Research Ecologist/Research Meteorologist (GS-0408/1340-12/13) with a duty location in Durham, NH. This position has promotion potential to GS-15

The scientist will utilize eddy flux tower data and related methods to better understand how ecosystems can be managed to increase the uptake and persistence of stored carbon and will address other questions relating to forest climate feedbacks. This involves developing and testing new ways of making and interpreting measurements of ecosystem gas exchange and bringing field data (ecosystem flux using diverse methods such as eddy covariance and remote sensing, intensive biometric data such as tree ring increment, extensive data such as inventories) and models together.
