Posted March 8, 2024. The Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve is seeking a qualified candidate to fill a full-time (40 hour/week) seasonal field technician position for 14 weeks during the 2024 summer field season. This position will support monitoring of coastal salt marsh restoration projects in southern Maine.
Position Goals: Collect and analyze environmental data related to coastal restoration projects involving salt marsh habitat and tidal road crossing replacement/removals. This monitoring is meant to gather pre-restoration data which will inform restoration design and establish baseline conditions for project evaluation.
Internships in coastal science, environmental learning, and conservation practice are available at the reserve. We often identify candidates through the Five College Consortium or NOAA's Hollings Scholar program, and we participate in the MCHT Richard G. Rockefeller Conservation Internship Program and the UMaine NRT program. Please contact the director of your program of interest for information.
