Remember the above? Well, the bill has been rewritten three times and now appears again as S. 1459. It is not better than it was. ****It will probably be brought to the floor for debate on March 18 and 19.**** A few of the continuing flaws are listed below: * Interested public can request notice for "informal consultation" on site specific grazing action, but that is all. No participation in the decision making process, no protest, no appeal. * All grazing actions and decsions are exempt from the NEPA process. * Permittees for leases must be in the Livestock Business to obtain a permit. They MAY NOT rest the allotment for more than 2 consecutive years. (i.e. no conservation leases) * The bill provides for the livestock industry to establish water rights on public lands. The federal agencies are then precluded from taking any action to limit or impose any restriction on the use of that water on public lands. (already in court in the west) * Federal land management agencies will be seriously limited in changing livestock grazing management. * The regulations developed under Secretary James Watt for the BLM in 1983 would be codifired into law. The Forest Service is directed to develop regs that are similar to the BLM. * The National Grasslands will be transferred out of the National Forest system for management. *ANGLERS*ANIMAL RIGHTS ACTIVISTS*BIRDWATCHERS*FALCONERS*HIKERS*HUNTERS*OTHER CONSUMPTIVE AND NON-CONSUMPTIVE USERS This is OUR problem: Call, write, fax, your senators.

I seek someone with experience in theory and practice of eddy correlation flux measurements. Recent research has documented important differences in land-atmosphere energy exchange among mature ecosystem types of arctic and boreal forest. However, little is known about how these processes are affected by disturbance. In the next decades, disturbances will probably have a greater impact on land-atmosphere exchange in the boreal forest than will changes in climate. The postdoctoral researcher will work as part of a research team to characterize the changes in land-atmosphere exchange during recovery from disturbance. The postdoctoral position will be available for 1 year (renewable for a second year) beginning as early as January 1, 1997. Field work will be in the vicinity of Fairbanks, Alaska during summers, using mobile eddy correlation towers that are moved periodically among sites to allow comparison of exchange characteristics of many sites in a single growing season. I seek someone who knows both the theory and practice of micrometeorological measurements using eddy correlation. The successful candidate must be able to operate and maintain micrometeorological instruments in complex terrain, analyze the resulting data, and interpret these data with respect to climatological and/or ecological theory. Experience in data management, data analysis, and the ability to write simple data- processing programs on Unix systems is desirable. The necessary instruments and software to collect and analyze data are developed and have been used in 1995 and 1996 field seasons. The position requires a PhD or equivalent experience. Please send inquiries and applications (including statement of interest, curriculum vitae, publication list, and the names, addresses, telephone numbers and email addresses of three professional references) to: F. Stuart Chapin, III, Dept. of Integrative Biology, Univ. of California, Berkeley, CA 94720-3140; email: fschapin@garnet.berkeley.edu; FAX 510-643-6264; phone 510-642-1003.

These include very rapid recovery to closed-canopy conifer condition, moderate (expected) recovery to closed-canopy conifer condition, and very slow recovery with an extended period in brush condition. Potential controls on successional trajectory include temperature, moisture, elevation, type and severity of disturbance, and method of conifer regeneration applied. This project will attempt to answer several questions. 1) How has succession varied among severely disturbed areas in the Pacific Northwest? 2) What are the causes of variation in successional processes, and can they be modeled using GIS and related methods? 3) Can historic satellite imagery be used to enhance predictions of successional models? Requirements: An M.S. degree in forest ecology, or related field. Ability to interpret historical aerial photography. Strong interest in forest succession, remote sensing, GIS, and statistical modeling. Existing skills in ARCINFO, ERDAS Imagine, and related software highly desirable. Willingness to work in the field.

Cohen at fsl Date: 3/20/97 9:08 AM Opportunity: Graduate Research Assistant (Ph.D.) in Landscape Ecology Where: Oregon State University, Department of Forest Science When: Fall 1997 Project Descrition: Recent observations indicate that the rate and direction of forest succession after clearcutting and other stand-replacement disturbances in western Oregon is highly variable, with at least three major trajectories having been identified. These include very rapid recovery to closed-canopy conifer condition, moderate (expected) recovery to closed-canopy conifer condition, and very slow recovery with an extended period in brush condition. Potential controls on successional trajectory include temperature, moisture, elevation, type and severity of disturbance, and method of conifer regeneration applied. This project will attempt to answer several questions. 1) How has succession varied among severely disturbed areas in the Pacific Northwest? 2) What are the causes of variation in successional processes, and can they be modeled using GIS and related methods? 3) Can historic satellite imagery be used to enhance predictions of successional models? Requirements: An M.S. degree in forest ecology, or related field. Ability to interpret historical aerial photography. Strong interest in forest succession, remote sensing, GIS, and statistical modeling. Existing skills in ARCINFO, ERDAS Imagine, and related software highly desirable. Willingness to work in the field. Must apply and be formally accepted into the Department's graduate progam.

Thanks very much. RESEARCH ASSISTANTSHIPS IN HISTORICAL ECOLOGY Harvard Forest, Harvard University FOREST AND LAND-USE HISTORY Over the past three hundred years the landscape of southern and central New England has been transformed from nearly continuous forest to an agricultural countryside and subsequently back to a largely forested condition. Numerous research projects at the Harvard Forest are examining the details and causes of this history and are evaluating the consequences of these landscape changes on the composition, structure and function of modern forests. We are currently looking for a research assistant to join this effort. Major responsibilities will include locating and compiling historical data and photographs documenting changes in forest composition in Massachusetts; interpreting, copying and digitizing historical maps for GIS analysis; and undertaking routine data entry and analysis of forest and land-use information. The individual will work under the supervision of David Foster but will interact with an interdisciplinary group of ecologists and will need to be able to work independently. A strong interest in landscape history, an undergraduate background and experience in ecology, forestry or botany, familiarity with computers and willingness to search exhaustively for data from archives, libraries, town halls and local historians are all requirements for the position. WILDLIFE DYNAMICS As the forest cover and land-use practices of New England have undergone major transformations over the past three centuries, wildlife populations in the region have also changed dramatically. As part of the Harvard Forest Long Term Ecological Research program we are hiring a research assistant to assist in documenting these historical dynamics for major mammal and large bird species in this region. Specific objectives will include determining the wildlife composition at the time of European settlement, dates of species regional extirpations, broad changes in abundance, and timing of recent introductions and population changes. The project will require identification, compilation and analysis of historical data from diverse sources and agencies, development of a detailed database, and preparation of materials for publication. Applicants should have an undergraduate or graduate background in ecology/wildlife biology, experience working with historical data, interest in the application of historical ecology to conservation biology, and facility with computer analysis and database management. Additional information on Harvard Forest projects can be found on the Harvard Forest home page (Web site: http://LTERnet.edu/~rlent/hfrhome.htm). To apply for either position, please send a CV, cover letter explaining your background and interest in the position, and three letters of recommendation to David R. Foster, Director, Harvard Forest, P.O. Box 68, Petersham, MA 01366 by May 15, 1997.

Archbold is an independent, non-profit research institute devoted to long-term ecological research and conservation in central Florida. MAERC, established in 1988, is located at a 4,000 ha full- scale commercial cattle ranch that encompasses varied pastures, prairies, woodland hammocks and drainage wetlands. Ongoing research programs emphasize the relationships between commercial cattle and citrus production, spatial and temporal distribution of wildlife populations, and water quality. The novel interdisciplinary approach examines the interface between ecological integrity and economic viability in a working agricultural landscape. MAERC conducts collaborative research with Archbold Biological Station, Institute for Food and Agricultural Sciences - University of Florida, South Florida Water Management District, and the Florida Cattlemen's Association. The Research Biologist will be expected to establish a research program with an emphasis on ecosystem processes. Areas of research interest might include: (1) nutrient dynamics within and among plant and animal communities, soils, groundwater or surface waters; (2) biotic versus abiotic controls of nutrient cycles; (3) landscape level linkages involving movement of nutrients and water; (4) biological redundancy and resiliency in ecosystem function as affected by various agricultural practices. The successful candidate should be able to: (1) capitalize on existing data and an extensive water quality monitoring infrastructure established in the field; (2) collaborate with ongoing interdisciplinary research in hydrological modeling, agro-economics, and wildlife monitoring; and (3) be able to work at different spatial scales ranging from the field, to the farm, to a regional landscape. We are looking for a team player, enthusiastic about living and conducting research at a working cattle ranch, and able to communicate successfully with multiple stakeholders including agricultural scientists, regulatory agencies, and cattle ranchers. Research facilities at Archbold include basic laboratories, an excellent library, computer networks, and GIS.
