As the Postdoctoral Fellow, you will lead the development of environmental genomic methods for monitoring fisheries, including methodological development, implementation of a pilot program, and development of an operational program for a case study fishery.
You will join an internationally recognised team in fisheries science, to work on a project to apply environmental DNA techniques to monitoring fisheries. The Marine Monitoring and Surveillance team is an interdisciplinary group of 25 researchers, engineers, and technicians work on a range of topics related to understanding and addressing the challenges posed by illegal fishing, at national, regional, and global scales.
Projects in the team range from:
• developing hydrophones capable of detecting explosions from bomb fishing and alerting authorities in real time
• building regional scale estimates of the volume and value of catch from illegal fishing using expert surveys and media analysis together with statistical tools.
The team is an active and dynamic group, working domestically in Australia, in partnership with countries across the Asia-Pacific region, and globally with international organizations. You will have the opportunity to interact with industry, government and international organization stakeholders, assisting in product development for users, gaining skills in project management, and having the opportunity to take the research effort in new directions.
