height: 451px; float: left; margin: 1px;" title="Student sampling grasslands under a valley oak" />The two interns will join the team and work with Jasper Ridge staff, fellow interns, faculty and docents to support expanding stewardship efforts at JRBP for land management, protecting biodiversity, and developing resilience in response to climate change. The role will include a mix of field and office work. Field work responsibilities will include working outdoors in a team to collect data related to <a href="https://jrbp.stanford.edu/news/bringing-good-fire-back-land-prescribed-burning-jasper-ridge">wildfire resiliency</a> and <a href="https://searsville.stanford.edu/">watershed restoration.</a> Data measurements and samples collected will include: diversity and abundance of vegetation in multiple native ecosystems (oak woodland, chaparral, and grasslands), characterizing vegetative fuels, soil and vegetation moisture, water samples, camera trap data, and animal burrows. Office responsibilities will include mentor-guided literature review and synthesis, data entry, mapping, brief presentations, and organization of field equipment.</p> <p>Interns will learn to work with increased independence through the summer, gain experience working in a biological preserve setting, and develop an understanding of how research, education, and stewardship are interconnected. Interns will be encouraged to complete and present an independent project related to research, education, or stewardship under the mentorship of Jasper Ridge staff, faculty, and docents. Overall, the outcomes of this internship will directly support land management and stewardship efforts at Jasper Ridge, and interns may have the opportunity to continue their involvement in long-term research.</p> <p><strong>Meet the JRBP ('O'O) Stewardship Interns! </strong></p> <p>2024: <a href="https://jrbp.stanford.edu/news/meet-2024-jrbp-stewardship-interns-john-and-nick">Nick Rodriguez and John Lowndes</a>.</p> <p>2023: <a href="https://jrbp.stanford.edu/news/hands-learning-meet-2023-stewardship-interns-jasper-ridge-biological-preserve-stewardship">Kiara Fufunan and Mary Ghebreselassie</a></p> <p><strong>MORE INFORMATION: </strong></p> <div><strong>Work Hours / Duration</strong></div> <div>-The internship program extends from Monday, June 23 to Thursday, August 28, 2025.</div> <div>-Interns are expected to work on-site at Jasper Ridge Monday through Thursday (with Fridays off) for 8-hour days.</div> <div>-Hours may vary to reduce field work in extreme heat, but will not extend beyond 7am to 5pm (exact schedule will be discussed with selected interns).</div> <div> </div> <div><strong>Eligibility </strong></div> <div>-The Jasper Ridge internship program is internally funded by Stanford and is intended for Stanford undergraduate students only.</div> <div>-Co-term MS or MA students may be supported only if their undergraduate degree will not be conferred before the conclusion of the project.</div> <div>-This internship is in-person and requires a full ten-week commitment.</div> <div> </div> <div><strong>Preferred Skills and Physical Requirements:</strong></div> <div>-The ideal candidates will have experience staying organized and be comfortable doing a mix of field and office work (sometimes under hot summer conditions and starting early to avoid extreme heat).</div> <div>-Previous field experience is not required but interns should feel comfortable working outside with potential exposure to heat, poison oak, and ticks.
