Job title PhD Opportunity: Hydrodynamics of Co-Located Offshore Wind and Mariculture Platforms. Company University of Tasmania, Australian Maritime College, in partnership with Blue Economy CRC. Description of the job The University of Tasmania is offering a PhD position to investigate the hydrodynamic interactions and loading conditions between offshore seaweed production facilities and floating offshore wind turbine structures. The project is supervised by Dr Damon Howe at the Australian Maritime College. Seaweed production in the offshore environment has gained significant attention from commercial entities, research institutions, and government agencies in recent years due to the products and environmental impact that could be achieved if produced on mass. Simultaneously, the offshore wind industry in Australia has gained exceptional momentum with several offshore wind zones being developed along the south-east coastline. Co-locating seaweed production with...

Job title PhD Studentship in Cumulative Impacts of Environmental Changes on Atlantic Salmon Ecology, Population Trends and Survival. Company Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS). Description of the job The Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) is seeking a curious and passionate PhD student to study the cumulative impacts of environmental changes on Atlantic salmon ecology, population trends, and survival. This work will contribute directly to protecting and preserving wild salmon populations in a changing climate. Natural and anthropogenic threats to freshwater habitat lead to challenges for Atlantic Salmon survival resulting in population declines. Salmon rivers are subject to a variety of cumulative habitat impacts due to development and environmental changes in their freshwater watersheds. To provide management tools for the conservation and preservation of the species, this project will analyze historical and projected flow...

Job title PhD Studentship in Marine Ecosystem Net Value of Decommissioning Offshore Infrastructure. Company University of Aberdeen, School of Biological Sciences. Description of the job The University of Aberdeen is seeking a highly motivated PhD student to investigate the marine ecosystem net value of decommissioning offshore infrastructure, focusing on quantifying the ecosystem services disbenefit of residual mercury contamination and the benefit of its removal. The use of marine ecosystems is changing to achieve net zero targets in the face of climate change, with the decommissioning of petroleum platforms and the installation of wind farms. Contaminants associated with oil and gas platform cuttings piles or pipelines may become available for uptake, accumulating through the food web. Mercury is a naturally occurring metal associated with petroleum extraction and found in many North Sea fields. Mercury compounds are found as scale and residue inside pipes and...
