I am looking for Latin American field assistants from October 20th – December 20th, 2011 to help with a research project on the interaction of invasive species. The research takes place on Robinson Crusoe Island, Juan Fernández Archipelago, Chile. Our main task is identifying plants inside and outside of rabbit exclosures. Food and lodging are included while on the island. Transportation assistance (roundtrip mainland Chile to island) may be possible for applicants from Latin America. Speaking or reading English is not required. Preference will be given to Chilean applicants. Deadline for Latin American applicants has been extended to September 8th. Please note that the deadline has NOT been extended for applicants from non-Latin American countries and remains September 4th.
