We are looking for four highly motivated individuals for PhD positions focusing on changes in land surface-atmosphere interactions (PhD1 and PhD2), and terrestrial-aquatic linkages (PhD3 and PhD4) in the northwestern Canadian boreal zone where hydrological regimes undergo rapid changes due to permafrost thaw. Funding packages for these four PhD positions include four-year stipends ($21,000/year), and travel and field expenses. Additional sources of funding include university fellowships, tuition remission (international students), and research and teaching assistantships. Total value of funding packages will depend on position and applicant, but will be generous for through external sources (e.g., Natural Sciences and Engineering and Research Council of Canada).

Laval University and Bylot Island
We are looking for a candidate who is passionate about botany and northern ecology. The student will work in a team of ecologists from Universities Laval and Quebec in Trois-Rivières, under the co-supervision of Line Rochefort and Gilles Gauthier. The work will take place both in the field at an isolated Arctic site where conditions are rigorous (Bylot Island) and in the laboratory. She or he will be based at Laval University and will be a member of the Center for northern studies.
A bursary of $ 17,500 per year (for two years) accompanies this project in addition to faculty supplements to success, but applicants who already have a major scholarship (eg CRSNG, FRQNT) or who will obtain it during the master's will receive other benefits.
