The Bisbing Forest Ecology & Silviculture Lab at the University of Nevada, Reno is hiring four full-time, temporary Forestry & Regeneration Ecology Research Technicians to support the Sierra Nevada Adaptive Management Experiment (AMEX). Technicians will work under the supervision of a Crew Lead and researchers from the Bisbing Lab to collect field data across multiple integrated research projects in mixed-conifer forests of the Sierra Nevada in California.
Research Technicians will assist with forest inventory and sampling as well as long-term regeneration provenance trials (i.e., baby tree gardens). Responsibilities include installing and re-surveying permanent plots; collecting pre- and post-treatment data on overstory trees, regeneration, fuels, plant communities, and forest health; measuring seedling survival and growth; maintaining planting sites through weeding or grubbing; downloading weather station and temperature logger data; assisting with mapping forest composition; maintaining field equipment and tools; and entering, quality-checking, and uploading data. This position requires attention to detail, strong work ethic, and the ability to work both independently and as part of a field team. Fieldwork involves long hikes with heavy packs, work in burned areas and challenging terrain, and variable weather conditions.
Location & Logistics

Crew members are expected to live on-site and travel between locations for the duration of the position. Housing will primarily consist of non-traditional accommodations such as tents or trailers. No per diem or food stipend is provided. A field vehicle with coolers, stove/propane, table, and basic kitchenware is supplied.
