Paleontological Field Monitor Position

The Department of Paleontology at the San Diego Natural History Museum has 
an opening for a paleontological field monitor. This position is full-time 
with benefits and is funded through contracts. Work will include field 
monitoring of construction related exposures of potentially fossiliferous 
sedimentary rocks (Cenozoic and upper Mesozoic marine and/or non-marine 
rock units) in the Southern California region. The field monitor will be 
expected to collect exposed fossils and record relevant stratigraphic and 
taphonomic data. Opportunities for fossil preparation are also possible. 
Depending on experience the field monitor may also be involved in preparing 
final reports of findings.

Requirements: A minimum of a B.S. in geology or a related discipline with 
an emphasis in paleontology. Experience in field paleontology and 
stratigraphy is preferred. Salary is commensurate with experience.

Start date: 1 May 2005
