environment and marine ecosystems, is seeking a seasonal Right Whale Ecology Program
intern from March through May 2018. This long-term project focuses on
documenting the abundance, distribution and behavior of North Atlantic right
whales and their food resource in Cape Cod Bay and adjacent Massachusetts
waters. The intern will assist the habitat research associate in the collection
and processing of <span class="" id=":2mn.3" tabindex="-1" style="">zooplankton</span> in the field and lab. Fieldwork responsibilities
include <span class="" id=":2mn.4" tabindex="-1" style="">zooplankton</span> collection through tow and pump techniques, marine
observer, and environmental data collector. Lab responsibilities include
