Research Technician - Toolik Field Station Environmental Data Center The Toolik Field Station Environmental Data Center is hiring a dependable technician to support Arctic research projects. Working closely with the SEDC manager, you will collect, enter, and quality-control ecological, hydrological, and meteorological data. Your day-to-day tasks will include using field guides to identify Arctic flora and fauna and operating specialized equipment to measure greenness, discharge rates, and water chemistry.
