Brook
Forest<https://hubbardbrook.org/> as part of the NSF-sponsored Long Term
Ecological Research project. Possible study organisms include insects, bats, and other
heterotrophs. Possible topic areas include phenology, population dynamics, species
interactions, connections between green and brown food webs, connections between
biogeochemistry and heterotrophs, and more. Requirements include ability to conceive and
conduct original research within the umbrella of a larger project; enthusiasm for field
biology and collaborative research; and an interest in linkages among ecology, evolution,
ecosystems, and society. The EEES Graduate Program at Dartmouth
