GPF is committed to scientific data collection, much of which involves assessing water quality in Edgartown Great Pond and Chilmark Pond. In addition to water sampling, interns will help monitor eelgrass (<em><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>Zostera marina</span></em>) beds and survey for invertebrates such as shellfish, jellyfish, and tunicates. In summer 2021, we will be starting a Biodiversity Monitoring Program, where we will study species composition and abundance of fish, zooplankton, and phytoplankton in the Pond using beach seine and plankton nets. Additionally, GPF will host socially distant outreach activities with stakeholders of all ages. GPF Summer Science Interns are expected to assist with these outreach activities. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNoSpacing style='text-align:justify'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNoSpacing style='text-align:justify'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'>We are looking to hire two college students for our Summer Science Internship. The ideal candidates should have an interest and enthusiasm for marine biology, environmental science, and science communication. Candidates must be capable of conducting repetitive tasks and spending long hours in the sun, with field days starting just after sunrise. Ability to collect and record scientific data accurately is required. Experience operating small boats and knowledge of New England coastal habitats and commonly found species is a plus. A typical week will be 20-30 hours, but occasionally up to 40 hours/week, with 3-4 work days each week. Housing may be available if needed but is dependent on the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic both locally and nationally, and the distribution of the vaccine. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNoSpacing><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:7.5pt;margin-left:0in;background:white'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black'>For more information on qualifications and instructions on how to apply, please see attached description or visit <a href="https://greatpondfoundation.org/jobs/" target="_blank">https://greatpondfoundation.org/jobs/</a></span><span style='font-family:"Arial",sans-serif'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><img border=0 width=112 height=62 style='width:1.1666in;height:.65in' id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image003.png@01D6EFFE.51578470" alt="A picture containing text, sign Description automatically generated"><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Julie Pringle | Scientific Program Manager | Great Pond Foundation<br><br><a href="mailto:julie@greatpondfoundation.org">julie@greatpondfoundation.org</a> | 508-939-0324 | greatpondfoundation.org<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
