ATTN: People interested in #wetlands and #soilscience
I am seeking a graduate research assistant interested in pursuing a #PhD or #MS in Agronomy with a focus in Soil Science. We will be exploring the presence of field indicators of hydric soils in interdunal wetlands in central Kansas, and investigating the expression of redox features as a function of time-since-exposure to oxygen in soils across the North Central region of the US. The prospective student will sample, describe, and characterize soils and use the Hydric Soil Technical Standard to document the presence of field indicators of hydric soils, hydrophytic plants, and wetland hydrology. More details are in the attached JPG of the position description.
