<p><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Applications are invited for Ph.D. assistantships within the Graduate School of Geography at Clark University. Ph.D. admission covers tuition, provides an annual stipend, and includes eligibility for competitive
 fellowships. Clark's Earth System Science program features expertise in terrestrial ecosystems and global change, hydrology, forest ecology, biogeography, polar science, terrestrial and marine biogeochemistry, disturbance & landscape ecology, GIScience, and
 remote sensing. GIScience and remote sensing geographers apply the world's most advanced Earth observation and spatial analytical technologies to address crucial issues concerning socio-economic development and environmental science and policy. At Clark, you
 will acquire strong working knowledge of remote sensing, spatial analysis, decision science, image processing, dynamic modeling, time series analysis, geostatistics, and the global positioning system. Special opportunities exist also in software development
 and environmental conservation. For example, we have funding available for graduate research into wetland dynamics via the National Science Foundation's Long Term Ecological Research network
