The James Lab at the University of Toronto is looking for enthusiastic
graduate students to undertake projects in spatial ecology and forest
health. Our work aims to improve understanding of landscape-level
disturbance and recovery processes in forest ecosystems in order to
meaningfully inform sustainable resource management.
You can learn more about the James Lab here: (http://www.jameslab.ca/)
http://www.jameslab.ca
The shape and specifics of individual graduate student projects are formed
through collaboration with you and our research partners.
Possible project areas include: insectwildfire interactions, cumulative
effects of disturbances on forest health and wildlife habitat, spatial
population dynamics of outbreaking species, meta-community dynamics in
continuous landscapes, and landscape genetics of forest insect pests.
Experience with some, or all, of {forest ecology, R, GIS, statistics, or
population genetics} will put you on a good footing.
To apply, first refer to the guidelines for admission to graduate studies in
the Faculty of Forestry at the University of Toronto:

http://forestry.utoronto.ca/mscf-and-phd/. Then, send a short letter of
motivation, your CV, recent transcripts, and the names of two references to
Dr. Patrick James: <mailto:patrick.ma.james@gmail.com>
patrick.ma.james@gmail.com.
The start date is not fixed, but a reasonable target is January 2020.
