Students interested in the art and science of field botany and restoration ecology now have a rare opportunity. Those selected will receive practical hands-on experience in vegetation ecology and species-at-risk surveys from a qualified professional and expert botanist. Botanical work will focus on vegetation surveys along the length of the Niagara Escarpment World Biosphere Reserve. The project will culminate in the publication of a book. The survey methodology will consist of hiking trail systems, camping, and driving between sites. Work takes place primarily over weekend dates, not including statutory holidays. Eligibility for this program includes: • Enthusiasm with a sense of humor; • comfortable hiking and working in small groups; • able to work independently and as part of a team; and • a strong communicator with the ability to take notes. Intern Botanists are asked to commit for a minimum of once per month from May to October, approximately 4 – 8 hours per hike. You will spend up to 2 – 4 hours per day entering data collected from field visits into the database. Alternatively, you may choose to spend up to a month entering data after program completion.
