The plantations were designed to tease apart interactions between selected species to disentangle mechanisms of competition, facilitation, and complementary use of resources. The successful fellow may also work on reforestation and restoration research in
other areas of Panama.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:106%;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">The ideal candidate has extensive experience in reforestation or restoration research with
knowledge of nutrient cycling and/or microbial ecology, tree physiology, forest ecology (preferably tropical), strong analytical and writing skills, and the ability and willingness to work in a team environment.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:106%;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">The successful fellow will be based at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama,
and will be awarded the standard Smithsonian postdoctoral <a href="http://www.smithsonianofi.com/fellowship-stipends/" target="_blank">stipend</a>. Initial appointment is for two years, and is potentially renewable contingent on performance and availability of funds. The
