CSIRO Postdoctoral Fellowship in Coral Reef Connectivity and Recovery
This CSIRO Early Research Career (CERC) Postdoctoral Fellowship will provide opportunities to a scientist who has completed their doctorate and has at least one year of relevant postdoctoral experience. The Fellowship aims to develop the next generation of future leaders of the innovation system.
This Postdoctoral Fellow will be responsible for leading, implementing and delivering research for the EcoRRAP Limitations to Early Recovery project, part of the Reef Restoration and Adaptation Program, and will have intellectual ownership of the research direction towards delivering the project’s requirements. The opportunity is based within the Coasts Program of the CSIRO Oceans and Atmosphere Business Unit, within the domain of Nature-based Solutions for Coastal Protection and Restoration. You will work as part of a collaborative team principally between CSIRO and University of Queensland, with additional collaborators at the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS).
The Postdoctoral Fellow will investigate variations in coral larval supply and relationships with coral settlement and validate connectivity modelling so that restoration strategies are well informed, to identify where and when enhancement of larval supply is warranted for upscaled coral reef restoration. Work will involve ambitious field activity, linking with genetic and predictive particle modelling. The Postdoctoral Fellow will add value to existing projects, and directly inform managers about key ecological processes on coral reefs by focusing on field, lab, and modelling experiments that allow testing of novel questions using cutting-edge science.
