Paid benthic ecology internship – Fall 2017
Dauphin Island Sea Lab, Dauphin Island, AL
One paid intern position is available to work with Dr. Kelly Dorgan at
Dauphin Island Sea Lab.
http://polychaetes.org <http://polychaetes.org/>
The intern will be working on two projects investigating the role of
bioturbating benthic invertebrates in 1) acoustic sound propagation
through marine sediment, and 2) oil-contaminated habitat. Work will
primarily be in the lab sorting and identifying macrofaunal samples and
helping to quantify physical aspects of marine sediment (shell hash,
porosity, carbon and nitrogen content). The position will likely include
some field work as well. Applicants should have or be pursuing a BS
degree in biology, marine science, or a similar field and have previous
research experience. This position will be 40 hrs/week for 3 months.
Start date is negotiable but should be between mid-October and Jan. 8.
Review of applications will begin October 9 and continue until the
position is filled.
