Thu Jan 27 13:16:29 PST 2022

Dear LTER Grad students,

The US Forest Service can be a great career opportunity for ecologists --
and they have a bunch of openings now, but you have to act fast. The window
for applications is *Feb18-28*. Please see the email below and also in
the student
discussion group
<https://lternetwork.force.com/lterhub/s/group/0F94S0000000L97SAE/students>
on the LTERHub <https://lternetwork.force.com/lterhub/s/>.

Also note:
We are phasing out the LTER email lists and moving conversations to the
LTERHub so that you can more easily set your own delivery preferences and
update your information. If you don't yet have an account on the LTERHub
<https://lternetwork.force.com/lterhub/s/>, please set one up by logging in
using the email address at which you receive LTER email. If you don't
remember your password, you can request a reset at the lower left of the
login dialog. Once you have joined the Hub, visit and follow the discussion
groups that interest you and  set your email delivery preferences.

Thanks,

Marty
