Australia : PhD Scholarship in Coral Reef Sedimentology and Stratigraphy

This scholarship is funded by an ARC Discovery Project grant and will provide support for 3 years on a full-time basis for a research project leading to a PhD. The objective of the research project is to investigate the biologic and geologic response of the Great Barrier Reef to sea level and climate changes over the last 30 ka by generating and linking new observational data with numerical modelling. The project will investigate a unique suite of sediment cores and other data collected on the recent Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition (325) http://www.eso.ecord.org/expeditions/325/325.php and the site survey cruise.

Eligibility:

Applicants should have an Honours 1 or 2A degree (or equivalent) in earth and/or environmental science.Experience/background in carbonate sedimentology, coral reef biology and geology and/or numerical modelling of earth systems would be an advantage. 

Amount awarded:

The scholarship stipend is $26,669 in 2010 (tax exempt).
