Help us to Monitor Bird Populations

IBP uses a wide variety of bird survey techniques, including constant-effort mist netting, point counts, and nest monitoring to study avian demographics. We also collect climate, weather and habitat data to determine the environmental and landscape-level causes of changes in bird populations. Each year we offer intern and biologist positions on a number of interesting projects. For the spring/summer of 2010, we have the following openings:

BIRD-BANDING OPPORTUNITIES WITH THE MAPS PROGRAM

BIRD-BANDING OPPORTUNITIES IN SAIPAN - Now recruiting for the April 28 - October 15 field season.
