MareTerra Onlus (www.mareterra-erc.org) is offering internships to join research projects on the conservation of the bottlenose dolphins and marine environment from May to October 2024 in Sardinia island, a hotspot of biodiversity of the Mediterranean Sea.
MareTerra is a non-profit organization created in 2012 by experienced researchers promoting the conservation of nature and sustainable development. On board of our boats, interns will join dolphin-watching activities and learn research methods to monitor the habitat use, abundance, distribution and bioacoustic of the bottlenose dolphins logging data into our database. Interns will collect georeferenced data on dolphins, fishing activities and boat traffic that impact their behaviour. Our research projects aim to implement measures for marine ecosystem conservation and promote a sustainable and responsible management of fishing and tourism activities. Working in an international and multicultural context, our interns will play an active role in environmental education to develop awareness and respect for the marine environment among tourists and locals.
