The Hille Ris Lambers lab at University of Washington is looking for 5-8 Undergraduate Research Interns for field work assistance at Mt. Rainier National Park. We study how rising temperatures and declining snow accumulation (i.e. climate change) will affect the forests and wildflower meadows of Washington. Broad research topics you might assist us with include the relationship between tree growth and climate, the determinants of range limits, plant-pollinator interactions, the importance of seed supply vs. microsites for plant recruitment, and the effects of climate and soil conditions on high elevation plants.

– For more details on the position, please see the attached flyer.
