Position Summary


The Snowy Plover (SNPL) Monitoring Project Community Recreational Use Intern will establish and implement dual survey protocols for Human recreational use on and near SNPL habitat on the South Shore of Great Salt Lake. The western intermountain population of SNPL is believed to be in decline as documented breeding pairs at Great Salt Lake (one of the two most important breeding areas in North America) have plummeted in recent years. Audubon Rockies and Saline Lakes of the National Audubon Society and Tracy Aviary initiated a pilot breeding SNPL monitoring project during the summer of 2023. The project is expanding this year to include dual surveys to quantify the extent and type of human-related disturbance to the birds. Survey types may consist of (but are not limited to) visitor usage surveys, geospatial monitoring, remotely accessed data with cameras, etc. Interns will develop the survey scope under the advisory of Dr. Jeff Rose, Assistant Professor, Parks, Recreation & Tourism, University of Utah, and Dr. Heidi Hoven, Sr. Manager, Gillmor Sanctuary, Audubon Rockies.


Ultimately, this internship is an excellent introduction to research that is intended to drive the co-creation of conservation actions by science and the community. Interns will gain invaluable experience from interactive communications with diverse community members, conducting research in the field, and honing data management skills that will help prepare them for advanced degrees and future employment.


The position is part-time hourly at $15/hr. Flexible schedule of 15 to 20/hrs. per week for 20 weeks. The project team will coordinate on schedule to align field visitation to nesting activity and achieve stratification of visitor use (day/evening, weekends/weekdays, holiday/non-holiday). Interns will work as a team for field safety. Interns can expect to spend approximately 75% of their time at the research sites, accessed primarily from the frontage road and Saltair, and 25% in the office / on computers. Project orientation and equipment training will be provided. Mileage reimbursement is included.


This role is remote to Audubon Gillmor Sanctuary.


Interns will gain experience and knowledge in the following:


Mentorship from trained and skilled scientistsParticipation in a scientific studyConducting in-person surveysOperating and maintaining scientific equipmentWorking independently in the field with partnerLarge dataset managementBasic data analysis approachesScientific reportingLearn how the intersection of biological monitoring and recreational use surveys are used to co-create conservation actions.Collaboration and communication skills

Interns will work weekdays and some weekend days with early morning start times for nest survey work and varying times of day, evening, and weekend for in-person surveys. The bulk of the nesting survey work will occur late May through June, although it is possible we will locate nests in April, July, and August. In-person surveys will be carried out from May – August. Due to the nature of this scientific study, there will not be a traditional work schedule, but the schedule will adhere to 15-20hrs per week under the supervision of Drs. Rose and Hoven.


Projected Start Date:
May 6th – September 20th


Compensation:


$15.00 / hour
