- The Division of Ecosystem Sciences examines the structure and function of terrestrial ecosystems including agricultural lands, forests, and rangelands, and their interactions with soil, air, water and organisms (microbes, plants, invertebrates, wildlife, livestock).
- The Grantham Lab at UC Berkeley seeks a qualified fisheries technician to assist with the management of, and research on, invasive Sacramento Pikeminnow (Ptychocheilus grandis), in the South Fork Eel River in Northern California during the Spring and Summer.
- Pikeminnow now occur at very high densities in many parts of the watershed and therefore have potential to fundamentally alter the aquatic ecosystem and negatively impact native species-particularly, anadromous species, which must migrate from headwater streams through the mainstem to reach the estuary and ocean.
- This position was created as part of an interagency collaboration between Berkeley, BLM and the Wiyot Tribe to manage and study Sacramento Pikeminnow in the Eel River to benefit native salmonids.
- Duties will include overseeing the operation of a seasonal weir, downloading data from acoustic receivers, conducting snorkel surveys, organizing data files and metadata, and acoustic tagging juvenile salmonids.
