We are looking for an M.S. student to contribute to our Chesapeake DolphinWatch project. This research project involves deploying hydrophones and analyzing acoustic recordings of bottlenose dolphins within the Chesapeake Bay and surrounding area (more information at www.umces.edu/helen-bailey). The student would be based at the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science (UMCES), Chesapeake Biological Laboratory (CBL), in Solomons, Maryland, USA, through the Marine Estuarine Environmental Science Graduate Program (www.mees.umd.edu). The student would be funded through a competitively awarded CBL fellowship. We are therefore searching for candidates with high GPA and GRE scores, and preferably a scientific publication. Candidates with experience in bioacoustics, sound analysis software (such as PAMGUARD and Raven), and statistical packages (such as R) will be preferable. If you are interested, please send your CV (including your GPA and GRE scores) to Dr. Helen Bailey at hbailey@umces.edu by 3rd December 2018. ------------------------------------------- Dr. Helen Bailey Research Associate Professor UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND CENTER FOR ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE Chesapeake Biological Laboratory P.O.
