DISL’s Marine Ecosystem Response Lab (Dr. R. Carmichael) seeks up to 2 undergraduate or post BS-level interns to work on a 12-week project starting in May 2014 to sample water and sediments in Grand Bay to define effects of phosphate entry to the Grand Bay ecosystem. Work will be collaborative and include interns from institutions that are part of the Grand Bay NERR Phosphate Working Group (University of Southern Mississippi/ Gulf Coast Research Lab, University of West Florida, and Dauphin Island Sea Lab/ University of South Alabama), and the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality. Work will be a combination of field sampling and lab analyses.
Interested applicants should send a brief letter of interest, current CV, and availability to start to ehieb@disl.org. Review of applications will begin immediately and end when positions are filled. Internship is paid through the Dauphin Island Sea Lab and requires a minimum of 20 hours per week and at least a 12-week commitment. Applicants are responsible for securing their own housing and transportation in the Mobile/ Dauphin Island, Alabama area. Transportation to and housing at field sites, when required, will be provided by project funds.
