The intern will assist researchers conducting studies on the marine environment and salmon returns to marine waters near Little Port Walter (LPW), a remote research station located in southeastern Alaska. The work will include capturing adult Chinook salmon returning to LPW using a variety of methods including a fish trap, weir, gillnets, and seines; taking biological samples, recovering coded-wire tags, accurately recording scientific data, and processing Chinook salmon for brood stock for the research hatchery at the station; feeding and caring for juvenile Chinook salmon being reared at the station, sampling the fish, and recording biological information; sampling and recording the outmigration of juvenile salmonids in Sashin creek; and collecting environmental data on the marine environment.
