The Great Lakes Inventory and Monitoring Network of the National Park Serivce will be hiring two biological technicians and one crew leader for vegetation sampling at three national parks in the upper Midwest. These are largely field based positions. The incumbents will assist in the establishment of permanent monitoring plots at Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, Grand Portage National Monument, and St. Croix National Scenic River. The field crew will collect extensive monitoring data on trees, shrubs, and herbs, collect data on fuel loads, identify select insect and disease pathogens and assess tree health, and monitor soils for the presence of earthworms. It is essential that the incumbent be able to identify vegetation (including grasses and sedges) to the species level. Field work will be performed in teams of 2-3 people.
These positions will open until January 26.
