Good day paleonet community,

We are happy to announce the newly NSF-funded project "Energetic Controls on Marine Community Structure in Space and Time", and announce the following four opportunities for graduate students and a postdoctoral researcher.

This collaborative project aims to evaluate productivity, energetic and trophic gradients in marine communities across the Isthmus of Panama, both in modern and fossil ecosystems. It builds on 40 years of collections and research of the Panama Paleontology Project (PPP: https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=en&user=V-tT6fsAAAAJ)
