The goal is to make the reports and data accessible for <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">researchers, managers, educators, artists, and other people who are interested. The team includes NPS, Schoodic <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">Institute, Mount Desert Island Historical Society, Climate to Thrive, College of the Atlantic, and others. The intern <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">will focus on entering metadata describing the reports and cleaning and formatting key data sets and their metadata <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">to make them accessible. Some of these data sets<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">\u2014<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">e.g., records of biodiversity, climate, and water quantity and <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">quality<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">\u2014<\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">are of particular interest for educators and artists to incorporate into lessons on science and data literacy or <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">to use to interpret climate change and other environmental changes. The intern will create versions of these data <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">sets and will draft accompanying communication materials (e.g., web articles or resource briefs) so that educators<\/span><br role=\"presentation\" \/><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">and artists can readily understand and use the data. These data sets, metadata, and communications materials will <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">be posted on the NPS Data Store and will be linked from the park website. The intern will also go into the field to <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">collect the same types of data to become familiar with the data collection methods, which will aid with writing <\/span><span dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\">metadata and communications materials. The intern will communicate results via a report and presentation.
