Field Biology Research Assistant
As a Field Biology Research Assistant, I contributed to a long-term monitoring project focused on juvenile Chinook salmon and lamprey. My responsibilities included collecting, identifying, and recording biological and environmental data using specialized field equipment. I applied careful attention to field safety protocols and data integrity, supporting both individual and team-based research operations. • Collected, measured, and recorded data on fish morphology and environmental conditions • Assisted in fish tagging operations, including surgical preparation and post-op monitoring • Participated in acoustic telemetry research tracking salmon migration • Trained in fish handling, field surgery, and safety procedures
