Seeking a qualified Volunteer Field Assistant for a Florida State
University Coastal and Marine Laboratory research project being
conducted this summer in the Florida Keys to investigate the ecology of
juvenile red grouper in Florida Bay. We will be working at three sites
off Marathon Key to describe and quantify the faunal communities
associated with juvenile red grouper excavations. Field work will
consist primarily of fish counts, sediment core collection, and setting
up/ retrieving equipment. One day a week will be spent processing
samples in a laboratory. Most work will be done on SCUBA (~20 ft. deep)
and some by snorkel, so applicant must have current AAUS Scientific
Diving certification, be familiar with boats, and be willing to work and
dive long days in beautiful Florida Bay. Must be available from May 24
until July 7 (end date weather dependent). Housing will be provided, as
well as transportation from Tallahassee to Marathon and back. If
interested, please contact Bob Ellis (rdellis at fsu.edu) for more
information by May 1st. Please include a copy of your resume or CV and
a description of your dive experience and current certifications.
