<p>I hope this message finds you well.</p>
<p>I am pleased to share an opportunity for a PhD position in tundra plant and ecosystem ecology in my newly established lab at NC State, <b>starting in May-June 2026</b>. The successful candidate will join a project focused on functional trait diversity and biogeochemical dynamics in rapidly changing tundra ecosystems. The research integrates long-term experimental platforms with comparative field studies across the Yukon–Kuskokwim Delta in Alaska, high-Arctic Svalbard, and the high-alpine Gavia Valley in Italy. The student will conduct intensive field campaigns, laboratory analyses, and quantitative ecological work at NC State.</p>
<p>I am not sure the attachment will be visible through the listserver, but I have included it here. It outlines the project scope, expected fieldwork, training environment, and application procedures. Interested candidates should contact me at <b><a rel="noopener">mpetitb@ncsu.edu<span aria-hidden="true"></span></a> by Friday, 19 December 2025</b>. I would be grateful if you could circulate this announcement to students or colleagues who might know strong applicants. If the attachment does not appear, the full advertisement is available at the link: <a rel="noopener" href="https://jobs.rwfm.tamu.edu/view-job/?id=110394" target="_blank">https://jobs.rwfm.tamu.edu/view-job/?id=110394<span aria-hidden="true"></span></a>.</p>
<p>Thank you very much, and I look forward to hearing from many prospective applicants.</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>
