OAI provides personnel support services on contract to government and industry clients for marine fisheries and protected species. This position will provide scientific support to assist in field data collection during the 2018 California Current Cetacean and Ecosystem Assessment Survey (CalCurCEAS) and post-survey acoustic analysis. This survey is being conducted to estimate the abundance and understand factors that affect the distribution of cetaceans and seabirds that are commonly found in the California Current Ecosystem. This is an excellent opportunity for a person with a marine mammal background to contribute to cetacean population estimates on the U.S. West Coast.
This position will primarily participate in the collection of cetacean survey effort data. It may also assist with the collection of tissue samples and identification photographs of encountered cetacean groups and deployment of satellite tags on select species. The survey will use passive acoustic monitoring techniques to investigate behavior, distribution and population size of cetaceans. An acoustic technician will work from shore to analyze acoustic data from data collected aboard the ship.
The survey will be conducted on NOAA Ship Reuben Lasker . Survey aboard NOAA Ship Lasker is currently scheduled to begin in June 2018 in San Diego, CA and is anticipated to end in December 2018.
The start dates, as well as survey duration, are subject to change. The survey is expected to span 140 days over 7 legs, each separated by 3 to 7 days in port. The survey will include the territorial waters of the United States, Mexico, and Canada.
Duties
Assist in the identification of marine mammals, mapping distribution and abundance of species and the production of dataset reports for the survey.
Record sighting information data for each cetacean sighting initiated by the observer on a daily basis.
Obtain photographs or biopsy samples collected or handled by the observer.
Salary and Benefits
This is a temporary hourly position, with significant overtime and generous employee benefits. Salary commensurate with experience.
Requirements
Bachelor's degree, or higher, from an accredited college or university in a related field of study with emphasis in fisheries, oceanography, social science, natural science, mathematics, or hydrology, plus four (4) years of experience in related field or combination of such totaling eight (8) years combined education/experience. Master’s Degree in related field or Ph.D. may be substituted for experience.
Additional required qualifications include:
At least 8 months cumulative line-transect survey experience working as a cetacean observer identifying marine mammals to species level aboard large (>150 ft) research vessels.
Ability to stand watch up to 9-hours per day including prolonged searching (up to 40 minutes at a time) using 25 power big-eye binoculars.
Knowledge of cetacean biology and taxonomy.
Knowledge and experience with line-transect methodologies.
Skill in identifying Pacific temperate and subtropical cetaceans to species level from distance (several km) at sea.
Experience preparing datasets and scientific reports on cetaceans.
Additional preferred qualifications include:
Experience collecting and processing marine mammal biopsy samples or taking and archiving digital photographs of marine mammals.
Demonstrated experience estimating group size as part of cetacean surveys, supporting an ability to accurately estimate group size.
In order to sail, employees must:
Have medical insurance.
Be medically cleared to sail aboard NOAA vessels 30 days prior to cruise departure.
Obtain Visa Cooperante from Mexican government to work in Mexican waters.
