Anderson S. 2018. Population study of painted turtles (Chrysemys picta) on Witch Hole Pond and Aunt Betty Pond in Acadia National Park. College of the Atlantic

From the abstract: "The Acadia Scholars is a two-year-old program jointly administered by College of the Atlantic and Acadia National Park. The program places two College of the Atlantic students with the National Park Service or the Schoodic Institute for a paid summer internship. Students are active partners with park service employees in Interpretation or Resource Management, working closely with their faculty and division staff and interacting with park visitors. As one of this years Acadia Scholars, I worked with the Wildlife Division of the Resource Management Division as a Wildlife Intern, conducting an independent summer-long population study of painted turtles in addition to assisting with the many other projects the wildlife team conducts throughout the summer."
