Overview<\/div>\n

The Biological Science Technician will be part of the\u00a0Coastal Carbon Network (CCN)<\/a>\u00a0and will have as primary duties collating, curating and archiving published and unpublished datasets on coastal wetlands\u2019 soil properties and maintaining the\u00a0Coastal Carbon Atlas (CCA)<\/a>. In addition, as secondary duties, the Biological Science Technician will contribute to field research and data analysis for studies on coastal wetlands soil organic matter composition and fluxes, and changes in soil surface elevation in responses to changes in flooding and salinity levels across (but not limited to) multiple sites in Chesapeake Bay and Florida. Additional opportunities involve engaging and collaborating with other SERC affiliated labs and projects such as the\u00a0Global Change Research Wetland (GCREW)<\/a>, an open skies natural observatory dedicated to unraveling the complex ecological processes that confer stability on coastal marshes as they respond to global environmental change.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
