Research Fellowship: GIS and Conservation Planning, Townsville, Australia   
The appointee will contribute to developing regional- and local-scale data sets for conservation planning in marine, freshwater and terrestrial environments. An initial focus will be the Avon catchment in southwestern Western Australia which is the focus of a collaborative project between James Cook University and regional and state management authorities in Western Australia. Subsequent projects are likely to include coastal catchments in North Queensland, and both terrestrial and marine areas in the Asia-Pacific region. The appointee will be part of an expanding research group focused on conservation planning and will help to develop a sub-program of PhD students and postdoctoral researchers working on GIS and the application and development of conservation of conservation planning software, in close collaboration with practitioners. Applicants are sought with strong GIS skills and an interest in any scientific area relevant to GIS and conservation
 planning. These include database management, programming, spatial analysis, spatial modeling and conservation planning software applied to the general areas of ecological, environmental or natural resource science and management. Experience in either terrestrial, freshwater or marine environments is relevant.
Deadline: May 2, 2008.
