Program Details https://www.nsf.gov/od/oia/activities/interns/ The NSF Summer Scholars Internship Program (SSIP) is a dynamic way for students to acquire new knowledge in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields and learn more about science policy and the federal government while gaining exposure to career and graduate school options. SSIP partners with the HACU National Internship Program (HNIP) to provide students with professional opportunities working at a dynamic government agency. The mission of the NSF SSIP is to develop undergraduate and graduate student potential through exposure to science administration and policy, research funding programs, and research and education issues. The ten-week program provides undergraduate students and graduate students the opportunity to work in the scientific administration of a disciplinary field that aligns with the students’ academic interests. Mentors develop a summer plan for the interns, with objectives and deliverables. Interns participate in various enrichment activities to assist with professional development, strengthen networking skills, and foster the cohort experience. Although the experience is currently virtual, students may have the opportunity to attend professional conferences or receive additional professional training. Interns are encouraged to pursue careers in STEM fields. About the National Science Foundation The National Science Foundation (NSF) is an independent federal agency created by Congress in 1950 “to promote the progress of science; to advance the national health, prosperity, and welfare; to secure the national defense...” NSF is vital because we support basic research and people to create knowledge that transforms the future. This type of support:
With an annual budget of $8.5 billion (FY 2021), we are the funding source for approximately 25 percent of all federally supported basic research conducted by America’s colleges and universities. In many fields such as mathematics, computer science and the social sciences, NSF is the major source of federal backing. NSF’s goals -- discovery, learning, research infrastructure and stewardship -- provide an integrated strategy to advance the frontiers of knowledge, cultivate a world-class, broadly inclusive science and engineering workforce and expand the scientific literacy of all citizens, build the nation’s research capability through investments in advanced instrumentation and facilities, and support excellence in science and engineering research and education through a capable and responsive organization. We like to say that NSF is “where discoveries begin.” |

Fall 2022 |
Format/Location: |
In-Person (Arcata Fish and Wildlife Office: 1655 Heindon Rd., Arcata, CA 95521) |
Hours Per Week: |

Project Description: |
The Klamath River is the focus of water and wildlife conservation issues and will soon be the site of the largest dam removal effort in history. Tools are needed to inform the use of limited water resources to maximize ecological benefits and support dependent tribal, commercial and sport fisheries. Further it is critical to document conditions before-dam removal to support interpretation of the benefits of restoration efforts. To address these needs, a spatially explicit two-dimensional hydrodynamic model was completed in 2021 and encompasses over 200 miles of the Klamath River. The hydrodynamic model will provide a component for updating key statistical relationships between streamflow and suitable habitat of Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon and other riverine species to provide a scientific basis for water management decisions in the Klamath Basin. However, the performance of the hydrodynamic model has not yet been tested for its utility in predicting instream habitats. This project aims to evaluate the output from the hydrodynamic model with a specific focus on its utility for predicting instream habitats. The Arcata Fish and Wildlife Office has recently published peer-reviewed journal articles that describe hydrodynamic model calibration and validation routines, as well as, the development of streamflow to habitat relationships. This body of work provides a basis for development of datasets that will be applied in this project at a landscape-scale. The products resulting from this effort will improve our ability to leverage the hydrodynamic model and ultimately improve the ecological benefits of streamflow management in the Klamath River.
|
Job Description: |
Tasks and Duties: Duties include implementation of validation and calibration routines in GIS software. Specific duties may include quantifying differences in depth and velocity predictions between independent hydrodynamic models, creating maps of instream habitat features associated with endangered salmonids, and developing analysis tools with ArcGIS Pro. Creating a professional presentation of results to cooperative agencies will also be a primary task. Deliverables: Products resulting from the validation and calibration routines include stream flow metrics to be compared to modeled parameters, GIS layers and maps displaying areas of congruency, organized project and file folder directories, and a presentation with digital slides for dissemination of results to cooperative agencies are expected as deliverables from the intern. Opportunities: The selected applicant will have the opportunity to assess critical habitat-flow models needed to effectively manage aquatic species of concern in the Klamath River. Skills and experience in GIS data management and analyses, field surveys, and professional presentations will be developed with assistance from fish and wildlife experts. Access to and utilizing the spatial data generated from the hydrodynamic modeling effort will provide valuable training for students interested in building a career to conserve aquatic species in a time and place of extreme drought, climate disturbance, and habitat restoration.

Project Description: |
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) is required by section 4(c)(2) of the Endangered Species Act (Act) to conduct a status review of each listed species at least once every 5 years. This project would support the Listing and Recovery Division by completing a status assessment for a threatened or endangered species. This project will contribute to our program goals, update baseline information for the species, and inform work in other divisions. Depending on the species, the status assessment could be short-form 5-year review, a species biological report, or a conservation strategy. The intern will have the opportunity to select the species they will be working on from a shortlist developed by the Division. This project is anticipated to result in two deliverables: 1) status assessment or conservation strategy for a listed species and 2) a presentation of the assessment results to staff and decision makers at the Carlsbad Fish and Wildlife Office. This work will require extensive review of past literature and coordination with our partners. The final written product will include updated information about the species' life history and biology, threats acting on the species, conservation measures already in place and those needed in the immediate future, as well as an occurrence table and a map. The intern will also update files at the Carlsbad Fish and Wildlife Office with updated literature and survey reports, and prepare a list of partners, stakeholders, and land managers researching or managing the species.
|
Job Description: |
As described above, the intern will work to assess a listed plant or animal species to: 1) conduct a status assessment to evaluate whether or not the species status has changed since it was listed, or 2) complete a conservation strategy to identify priority conservation objectives for recovery. The intern will work independently with the support of a senior biologist to review available information to develop a species status assessment or conservation strategy. We anticipate that the intern will work on one species and one written deliverable. There is flexibility to modify or expand the project should the intern be available for a longer period of time. For example, they could develop a conservation strategy to support their status assessment or they could conduct a status review for another species The following objectives will contribute to the preparation of the project deliverables: Objective 1: Conduct a literature review to provide baseline information, or an update of new information since the last status review (Weeks 1 and 4). Over the first 2 weeks, conduct a thorough review of the literature of the target species from the past 5 years (since the last 5-year review was completed) to provide an updated baseline, which will assist office staff with other packages working with this species.
Objective 2: Update occurrence data (Weeks 1-5)
Objective 3: Coordinate with Service staff and external partners to obtain current information about species' biology, life history, and threats (Weeks 1-6)
Objective 4: Assess current threats to the species (Weeks 1-9). By week 8, assess current and future threats to the species, based on the literature review (Obj 1 above) and coordination with partners (Obj 3 above).

Fall 2022 |
Format/Location: |
In-Person (Kern National Wildlife Refuge Complex: P.O. Box 670, Delano, CA, 93216) |
Hours Per Week: |
20 |
Project Description: |
This project will involve the use of remote cameras to document the spatial and temporal distribution of the endangered Buena Vista Lake ornate shrew on the Kern National Wildlife Refuge Complex. BVLOS were first detected on the Kern NWRC in 1992. Since then, no comprehensive survey has been conducted so their distribution on the Refuge is not well understood. BVLOS require permanent and intermittent riparian or wetland communities that contain a complex vegetative structure with thick leaf litter or low-lying vegetation and a consistent and diverse supply of prey. Besides this, however, little is known about their habitat requirements and behavior. This project will help us better understand those unknowns. The survey will start within the three areas designated as Critical Habitat for BVLOS at the Kern NWR. Cameras will then be strategically moved from these core areas to cover the entire Refuge and document spatial distribution. For temporal distribution, several locations will be randomly selected, stratified by the dominant vegetation type, and will be monitored throughout the year to document when shrews are being detected. Duties will involve but are not limited to protocol creation, report writing, camera deployment, weekly camera checks, database creation, data entry and management, and other duties as assigned.
|
Job Description: |
Intern Tasks and Duties: The intern will first conduct a literature review on previous BVLOS research both on and off Refuge. They will then assist the Refuge Biologist in developing a remote camera study to better understand the spatial and temporal distribution of shrews while also monitoring their behavior and the different habitat characteristics of where they are found. The intern will take the lead on developing a protocol for the survey, creating a database, and writing a report containing the findings of the project. The intern will manage camera site selection, camera deployment, camera checks, analyzing camera trap data and organizing photos, data entry and management, and report writing. The intern will also have the opportunity to help refuge staff with other projects of interest involving invasive species removal, wetland management, habitat restoration, and other endangered species monitoring projects. The intern will develop a survey protocol for BVLOS remote camera trapping at Kern NWRC using the 2013 USFWS protocol handbook as a guide. The intern will create an Excel database to enter all BVLOS camera trapping data for their project. They will then document their findings in a report that will include maps of BVLOS distribution maps, BVLOS behaviors observed, habitat characteristics that were most frequently present when shrews were detected, and recommendations for future surveys and research. Lastly, the intern will create a PowerPoint presentation summarizing their report to be presented to Refuge Staff and other partners. Opportunities for the Intern:

Format/Location: |
In-Person (Ventura Fish and Wildlife Office: 2493 Portola Rd., Suite B, Ventura, CA 93003) |
Hours Per Week: |

Project Description: | The Ventura Fish and Wildlife Office (VFWO) developed a simple geospatial tool that applies and utilizes the research presented in Searcy and Shaffer (2008) to develop a method of calculating biologically meaningful mitigation credits for the California tiger salamander. Searcy and Shaffer (2008) use their knowledge of life history of the endangered California Tiger Salamander to calculate the reproductive value of upland habitat based on distance from breeding ponds and age class density surrounding breeding ponds. Our geospatial tool uses these calculations and allows agency personnel and stakeholders quickly calculate the reproductive value of upland habitat where incidental take or mitigation is proposed. Use of the geospatial tool for CTS mitigation procedures is efficient, fair, and based on the best available science.
The geospatial tool relies on a number of inputs to accurately calculate the reproductive value of habitats and, in turn, calculate biologically accurate mitigation credits. The Service is responsible for providing two of these inputs to run the mitigation tool: (1) California tiger salamander breeding ponds and (2) existing land use. The California tiger salamander requires a combination of pond habitat for breeding and upland habitat for the rest of its life cycle. As the species emerge from their breeding ponds to take refuge in upland habitats where they will spend the majority of their lives, they often encounter existing developments that impact their dispersal. Consideration of lands already lost to pre-existing developments is key to ensuring a fair analysis of impacts to habitat. We refer to these pre-existing developments generally as existing land use. Existing land use can affect habitats within a project area, adjacent to a project area, and/or within the mitigation area. Furthermore, existing land uses affect habitat values and how the species may or may not utilize these lands. For instance, there are many lands that have been in active agriculture since before the listing of species. These lands affect how species can utilize lands/habitats in a particular area. Given how impactful existing lands can be when calculating mitigation credits, it is imperative to have a comprehensive and complete database with existing land uses.
The intern would be responsible for creating a geodatabase of CTS breeding ponds and existing land use that is interspersed among CTS upland habitat. The current workflow when using the tool requires the user to create polygons for existing land use that would affect the analysis of specific project impacts. A comprehensive geodatabase of existing land use would reduce the time required to compile existing land use data and ensure that existing land use is applied consistently between users and across projects. While CTS breeding pond data exists for the Santa Barbara DPS, ponds in the Central DPS need to be mapped. All pond locations should be compared to aerial imagery to ensure accuracy. Finally, the intern would produce a guidance document how each database was compiled, and define all the parameters assigned to each feature within the databases. This document would allow users and project applicants to better understand the parameters and methods applied when project impacts and mitigation are calculated. |

Project Description: |
The Intern’s first task would be to lead the development of draft Regional Eagle and Bird Guidance documents (Regional Guidance). Our goal is to provide current and consistent information to external partners and industry for non-wind projects. This is important for our collaboration and ensuring sustainable eagle and migratory bird populations. We would provide the Intern with our draft Regional outline standard operating procedures (SOP) for non-wind Eagle Conservation Plans (ECPs) as the basis of the draft Regional Eagle Guidance document. The Intern would be asked to review our National ECP Guidance for wind projects, an example wind guidance document from another Region, and our draft SOPs. The intern would lead an effort to develop a draft Regional Eagle Guidance document for non-wind projects. We expect this to be a short and straight forward guidance document. Similarly, we would provide the intern with example emails demonstrating how we provided recommendations to other agencies and project proponents to address migratory bird regulatory and biological considerations. We would ask the Intern to convert that content into a cohesive draft Regional Migratory Bird Guidance document. The Intern would coordinate closely with our team of Regional Migratory Bird Biologists, and synthesize the provided information into the respective documents. We would not expect final products at the end of the internship, although we would work towards that end as is reasonable. The Intern’s second task would be to write Regional Species Reports for up to 3 Birds of Conservation Concern (BCC) (At-Risk Species). The task entails conducting literature searches, soliciting expert opinion (interviews), and compiling and summarizing available information about each species, focusing on the status within our California – Great Basin Region (Region). The Intern would coordinate with our internal and external partners such as our Ecological Services Field Offices, State Wildlife Agencies, Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Geological Survey, US Forest Service, and Non-Government Organizations, including Audubon and Great Basin Bird Observatory. The goal would be to focus on determining understanding the species status within our Region, identify, threats, potential conservation actions, and potential partners for implementation of such actions. Depending upon travel approvals and status of COVID-19 pandemic travel policy or concerns, and the Intern’s comfort level, the Intern may have the opportunity to conduct field visits and/or survey work. This effort would be valuable for our Regional and National Migratory Bird Program, assist us in identifying and prioritizing our conservation efforts, and may contribute to Nevada Department of Wildlife’s updated Wildlife Conservation Plan, and possibly to our National USFWS web sites.
