I happened across your post and was instantly interested. I am a certified diver and also have underwater survey skill. I am very interested in learning more about the ArchTam dive team and possible projects.

Hi All,

Thanks for all of the comments! It’s fun to hear how many divers we have here at ArchTam, it’s such a great hobby/sport. If you have specific interests or questions about our work or how to get involved feel free to get in touch with me via e-mail and I can point you in the direction of our Dive Team leader.

Talk soon!

Great posting and a very cool job. I have been diving since 1975 (yes that means 40 years,) and love to do it, but in clearer waters than Galveston Bay. Favorite is Grand Cayman and Bonaire. If you come down again to Houston where I am or anywhere else for another survey, let me know if you need any assistance, might be nice to do a summer dive in our “warm puddle” environment.

Nothing beats this! I will just have to find a way to combine my hobbies (deep diving being one) with my job somehow!!!!!

Great post from one diver to another! Anything that contains both diving and mollusks is at the top of the list.

Full face masks and comms are awesome.

Kind regards,

Coolest job indeed. As a PADI Dive Master since the early 2000s, there is nothing like getting paid to dive (and work of course). I am glad to see that ArchTam is doing underwater surveys and various other things I am sure. Keep up the good work and have some fun. I am jealous 😉

Hi Kaitlin,

Awesome to see that there are other SCUBA divers in the ArchTam family who have a passion for the underwater environment. I did not know that ArchTam had a dive team, how would one go about getting more involved?

Regards

Hi Kaitlin

Awesome job indeed. I have a PADI Rescue Diver license. How can I join ArchTam’s diving team? Any certification I need to pursue in order to qualify? Thanks
