Description: This seminar course will examine aboveground and
belowground processes in the context of the global nitrogen and carbon
cycles, and the impacts of both natural and anthropogenic
disturbances. The course will include overviews of the global
nitrogen and carbon cycles and their relationship to recent changes in
climate; discussion of processes such as nitrification,
denitrification, and N-fixation and their relationship to soil
properties and nitrogen addition; discussion of respiration,
photosynthesis, and decomposition; and the coupling of N and C cycles
in soils related to increasing air/soil temperatures and increasing N
deposition. This course will include an emphasis on emerging new
techniques to quantify N and C processes in the laboratory, field and
through modeling, and will include a field trip to Harvard Forest to

Graduate School Fellowship Opportunities
The Presidential Management Fellowship Program, administered by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM), is the Federal Government’s cornerstone succession planning program to help agencies meet their critical need for leadership continuity. Since 1977, the PMF Program has helped Federal agencies meet their workforce and succession planning needs by attracting outstanding master’s and doctoral-level students to Federal service.
Graduate students from all academic disciplines who expect to complete an advanced degree (master's or doctoral) during the 2010 - 2011 academic year are eligible to be nominated for the upcoming application period. Students can use this two-year fellowship as a stepping stone to highly visible and respected leadership positions in the Federal Government.
Individuals applying to the PMF Program must be officially nominated by their dean, chair, or DGS. For more information, please visit the PMF Program listing on the Graduate School's Funding Database.
The Brown-Tougaloo Partnership (BTP) Faculty Fellows Program is designed to offer advanced graduate students at Brown the opportunity to teach undergraduate courses at Tougaloo College in Tougaloo, Mississippi, and aims to develop proficiency in undergraduate teaching, fully-immerse graduate students in faculty life, experience delivering instruction to a diverse student population in a rural, college setting, and to enhance core curricular offerings at Tougaloo College. All expenses are paid by the Brown-Tougaloo Partnership, the Graduate School, and Tougaloo College.
Fourth- or fifth-year doctoral candidates from all academic disciplines are eligible to apply for this fellowship. Applicants must have teaching experience (or complete training from Sheridan Center for Teaching and Learning prior to departure to Tougaloo College), obtain DGS approval, and identify a faculty mentor at Tougaloo College. For more information, please visit the BTP Faculty Fellows listing on the Graduate School's Funding Database.
Students with questions or concerns about either opportunity can direct them to Assistant Dean of Recruiting and Professional Development Jabbar Bennett.
