About this position

This fellowship with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, within the Forest Service Northern Research Station in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, focuses on how changing soil frost affects forest hydrology and forest operations in northern Minnesota.

The project examines how longer and deeper soil freezing may alter water availability over time, with implications for timber harvesting, merchantable timber removal, summer tree growth, and ecosystem productivity. The selected participant will work with empirical data from long-term field studies and help develop and implement models to simulate soil frost formation under different scenarios.

The research is embedded in a Forest Service environment that links science and land management. The participant will engage with scientists and colleagues inside and outside the USDA Forest Service and work under the guidance of a Forest Service Research Hydrologist, Stephen Sebestyen.

Training in the opportunity includes interpreting long-term ecosystem datasets, understanding soil frost formation and dissipation, and preparing research for journal publication.

Funding details

Stipend of $1,750.00–$2,000.00 monthly; appointment initially for 32 weeks and may be extended contingent on funds.
