Through a collaborative, bipartisan approach across habitats, borders, and the political spectrum, Audubon drives meaningful and lasting conservation outcomes. With 800 staff and over 1.9 million supporters, Audubon is a dynamic and ever-growing force committed to ensuring a better planet for both birds and people for generations to come. Learn more at *************** and on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram @audubonsociety. Position Summary: Audubon's Seabird Institute manages seven island research stations off the coast of Maine that support breeding colonies of Arctic, Common, Roseate, and Least Terns, Atlantic Puffins, Black Guillemots, Razorbills, Laughing Gulls, Common Eiders, Leach's Storm-Petrels, and wading birds (study species vary by island). Seasonal field teams live and work on each island for the duration of the field season. Work includes, but is not limited to: monitoring seabird populations, productivity, and growth; conducting seabird diet studies; banding and resighting birds; removing invasive vegetation; educating island visitors; assisting with predator management; data entry and proofing; and camp maintenance. Island field stations have a cabin or wall tent that serves as the base of field activity, limited electricity (solar panels power research needs), propane stoves, composting toilets, and no running water (rainwater is collected for washing; drinking water is brought from the mainland). Field team members sleep in their own tents. Communications with the mainland are via cell or VOIP phone, depending on location, with VHF radios as back-up. Island field teams consist of 2 to 5 people (depending on island and time of year) and are led by the Island Supervisor. All field team members participate in seabird monitoring and camp maintenance duties. For the welfare of the birds, field work is highly weather-dependent. Island work schedule and daily duties are determined by the Island Supervisor, following established work plans and procedures. Daily schedules will vary based on weather (no entry into the seabird colony is permitted during inclement weather to protect the nesting terns) and time of the nesting season. Daily activities may include the following: island-wide morning bird count; collection of weather data three times per day; one to two 3-hour “stints” in the observation blinds for data collection; seabird trapping and banding; productivity monitoring; trail maintenance; invasive plant removal; predator control; computer data entry; daily journal log entries; and maintenance of camp facilities. Following a brief orientation period on the mainland (shared housing provided), field teams will spend the entire field season living on-island. At inshore field sites (less than 2 miles from the mainland), teams will have a small motorboat and may have the ability to go ashore for food and supplies for the field station, approximately every 2 weeks. On offshore islands (more than 5 miles from the mainland), food and supplies will be delivered approximately every 3 weeks. Length of Assignment: Positions start between May 1 and May 27 and end between August 15 and September 18, depending on site. Hours: 35 hours a week This position is classified as on-site based at the Maine Summer Seabird Restoration Program in Bremen, ME. Compensation: $19.00 / hour Additional Job Description Essential Functions Participate in seabird studies as scheduled by the Island Supervisor, which may include, but are not limited to: bird trapping, banding, and resighting; observations from blinds; conducting seabird diet studies; conducting nest censuses; monitoring productivity and growth of chicks; computer data entry; blood or specimen collection; vegetation management; predator monitoring and control. Use binoculars and spotting scopes to aid in the collection of data as specified by the Island Supervisor. Perform 3-hour-long observation stints in small wooden observation blinds overlooking seabird nests. Accurately and neatly record data on specified data sheets. Enter and proof data in computer databases. Protect the seabird colony from human disturbance. Conduct predator management or control as necessary under the direction of the Island Supervisor. Maintain field equipment and facilities. Conduct trail maintenance and invasive plant removal. Assist Island Supervisor with landing of equipment and new personnel on the island. Operate power and/or row boats under guidance of Island Supervisor. Use of personal flotation devices is mandatory. Maintain and properly care for NAS-issued equipment, including spotting scopes, cameras, GPS, cell phones, radios, stoves, and other research and camp equipment. Assist with inventory of all island equipment and closing of the field station at the end of the season. When on the mainland: procure supplies; pack groceries, research supplies, and mail in waterproof island transport bags; clean and fill water jugs for supplying research stations; clean and store field equipment at the end of the season; assist mainland-based staff as needed. Collaborate with Audubon staff to ensure that equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging principles are incorporated and followed in all aspects of our work. Other job duties as assigned. Qualifications and Experience: At least one season of prior avian field experience, and/or at least an upper-level undergraduate studying Biology, Wildlife, or a related field.

This is the right place for you if you're curious, motivated by the future of technology, and want to be part of a unique and diverse community that works on high-impact research, educational, business, and societal problems. Job Summary Northeastern University's Roux Institute and the Institute for Experiential AI (IEAI) are seeking applications and nominations for postdoctoral researchers based at Roux in Portland, Maine, USA. The selected researchers will be aligned with the AI for Climate and Sustainability (AI4CaS) focus area within IEAI and will get an opportunity to work closely with one or more faculty and with the private-public-government sector experiential partners. The cohort expects to fund up to five postdoctoral researchers in knowledge-centric and human-focused AI. The five thematic areas, as well as the core hiring and mentoring committee, are described below. Themes: The cohort of five is envisaged to comprise hires in the following five thematic areas: 1. Theme 1 ("Nowcasting"): Hybrid Physics-AI for Short-term Weather and Hydrologic Prediction Skillful predictions of weather and hydrology in the short-term (few hours to a few days) are difficult owing to model and data limitations, the importance of extremes and anomalies, as well as the need to appropriately blend physics with AI. 2. Theme 2 ("Downscaling"): Physics-Guided AI for Climate or Earth System Model Downscaling Global climate and earth system models yield massive simulations at low space-time resolutions and are subject to uncertainties resulting from human and natural systems as well as intrinsic variability. The need to translate to variables and scales relevant for stakeholders with appropriate uncertainty quantification requires physics-guided AI. 3. Theme 3 ("Human AI"): Knowledge-Integrated Human-Centered AI for Climate Resilience AI and data science systems that are guided by human knowledge or help guide models can generate insights and metrics from massive volumes of complex data obtained from model simulations and/or remote and in-situ data. Stakeholder knowledge, such as, of cascading interdependence, can ground the models through knowledge graphs, rules, and process understanding, with implications across sectors from ecology to infrastructure. 4. Theme 4 ("Communities"): Green and Resilient Communities and Entrepreneurship Communities ranging from microspatial neighborhood or street levels to the scale of villages, towns, and cities, all the way to megaregions, continents, and the globe, need an entrepreneurial mindset, often with AI as one tool of choice, for targeted or frugal innovations to ensure resilience to compound extremes, assure clean water or air, prevent cascading failures across interconnected systems, and adapt to or mitigate global change. 5. Theme 5 ("Renewables"): Energy Storage Systems and Sustainable Renewable Energy Energy storage systems and renewable energy infrastructures are critical for anticipating, preparing for, and mitigating weather and hydrological extremes, as well as to develop effective decarbonization strategies. The possible role of AI ranges from predictive models of solar insolation and wind variables to understanding and monitoring the water and carbon cycle, as well as for developing actionable strategies and scenario plans.
