Ph.D. & M.S. opportunities in landscape ecology:

I am seeking graduate students to join my lab who are interested in landscape ecology pertaining to potential climate and land-use change impacts on insects (particularly odonates or pollinators).  For more information about research done in my lab, please check out my webpage athttp://myweb.ttu.edu/nmcintyr.

Preference will be given to students with previous experience in GIS or remote sensing, and to Ph.D. students who already have a Master’s degree.
