The Environmental Surveillance, Education, and Research (ESER) Program monitors vegetation on the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) Site. Multiple ecological positions are available to work as paid internships collecting and managing data on ecological monitoring projects funded by the Department of Energy (DOE). Vegetation data will be collected for a project supporting monitoring efforts for sage grouse habitat. Data collected for this project are used to assess sage grouse habitat condition annually, monitor changes in habitat condition, and measure the effects of vegetation change on habitat availabili
