[IUFRO RG 7.02 FORPATH] MSc graduate student opportunity

MSc Graduate Student opportunity - University of Northern British Columbia I am seeking a graduate student to work on the ecology of tree fall of trees killed by mountain pine beetle. This project will involve investigation of wood-boring insects, decay fungi, site and tree factors that influence the rate of tree fall. This project also provides an opportunity to learn about tree-ring analysis which will be used to date mortality and fall of trees. Preferred start date is September 2010 or earlier, and a graduate student stipend of $15,000 per year is available. Please contact Dr. Kathy Lewis (lewis@unbc.ca<mailto:lewis@unbc.ca>) for further information. University of Northern British Columbia, Prince George, BC Canada Kathy J.
