Forest biometrician.... Participate in a team oriented research project assessing the carbon dynamics of forest ecosystems at country to regional scales, including the effects of changes in land cover, land use, and land management.

The primary duties will be :1) estimate errors and their propagation for all components of national-scale terrestrial C budgets; 2) design sampling strategies for data collection from field sites to remote sensing scenes; 3) perform statistical analysis of inventory data for estimating status and trend of forest biomass-carbon densities; 4) design a data management system, including quality control procedures, for keeping track of estimates of means and associated errors of carbon budget components that vary over time and space....
