<p>The Nature Conservancy has received financing from the
World Bank toward the cost of the Sustainable Financing
and Management of Eastern Caribbean Marine Ecosystems
Project and intends to apply part of the proceeds for
consulting services. The Nature Conservancy invites
eligible consulting firms (“Consultants”) to apply for the
Monitoring and Evaluation (Indicator Set) Specialist
position.
</p>
<p><br>
Duration: The expected duration of this consultancy is
approximately seven months from the date of execution of
contract.
</p>
<p><br>
Objective of the Consultancy: The purpose of this
consultancy is to develop an Eco-Regional Monitoring
Management and Evaluation Plan for the marine protected
area systems of Participating Countries (Antigua &
Barbuda, Grenada, St. Kitts & Nevis, St. Lucia, and
St. Vincent & the Grenadines). This plan will outline
(a) the biophysical and socio-economic indicators to use
for each country or across countries to monitor the status
of and trends in the protected areas systems, (b) how to
collect these indicators, and (c) the roles,
responsibilities and frequency for collection. </p>

</span>In June 2012, the Scientific and Technical
Advisory Panel (STAP) worked on an advisory document on
MPAs. This document intended to provide guidance to
assist the GEF-STAP in screening Project Identification
Forms and in providing advice in the design of MPA
projects. Later this year, the GEF secretariat has
started to gather data related to GEF MPA projects in
order to develop a database. These preliminary works
will feed the study.<span>
</span>The study will be conducted based on the existing
list of projects that GEF has supported, and on
interview of key experts and some of the MPAs managers.
The study will analyze how the GEF finance has been used
for MPA management, showing notably which kind of
activities has been funded, for which IUCN category, and
in which financial context. The study will also
highlight the spatial and temporal investment done by
the GEF in MPA, since its inception. The study will help
to determine to which extent some type of support has
potential advantages, what conditions are necessary to
ensure the success of GEF support to MPA, and what has
been the GEF project outcomes in MPA management to date.</span></p>

The project is collaborative between NSU and the
Khaled bin Sultan Living Oceans Foundation (LOF).
The successful candidate will play a senior role in
the planning and execution of remote sensing
operations for the LOF Global Reef Expedition. This
ongoing initiative is visiting remote reefs
throughout the Pacific, Indian Ocean, and Red Sea -
globalreefexpedition.org. You will join several LOF
cruises per year aboard the M/Y Golden Shadow, a 67m
logistical support vessel, to collect ground-truth
and geophysical data that you will use to develop
high-resolution habitat and bathymetry maps from
Worldview-2 satellite imagery. You will also have
the opportunity to address your own science
questions related to this work. The project is
exciting because of its large scale and you will be
working with several tens of thousands of sq. km of
imagery per year. The position will see you visiting
little-studied reef sites in the Pacific, before a
shift in focus to the GBR and Coral Sea in 2014,
with subsequent legs of the GRE moving through the
Indian Ocean and finishing in 2016 in the Red Sea.
We are looking to develop an exciting collegial
atmosphere with a lot of scientific freedom.<br>
<br>
The initial term will be for one year with the
potential for renewal through 2017. The position
will be supervised by Sam Purkis at NSU's "Center of
Excellence for Coral Reef Ecosystems Research"
facility on the ocean side of Port Everglades in
Hollywood, Florida.<br>
<br>
Interested candidates should send to
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:purkis@nova.edu">purkis@nova.edu</a>: (1) a CV, (2) details of research
interests and possible research projects, and (3)
contact information for three referees. Interviews
will commence upon receipt of application and will
continue until the position is filled.<br>
<br>
The candidate will be highly numeric and key factors
in our hiring decisions will be creativity,
motivation, productivity, and publication record.
The domain of your expertise will be remote sensing,
GIS, and marine spatial planning. SCUBA experience
will be considered favourably. All qualified
candidates are encouraged to apply; however, US
Citizens and permanent residents will be given
priority.<span style="font-size:10pt;

EU-funded Biodiversity and Protected Area Management
Project (BIOPAMA) is aimed at improving the
long-term conservation of biodiversity in Africa,
the Caribbean and the Pacific Islands region and to
reduce the poverty of populations surrounding
protected areas by enhancing the capacity of
existing institutions and networks involved in
biodiversity conservation and protected area
management. BIOPAMA will be implemented in close
collaboration between the International Union for
Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the Joint Research
Centre of the European Commission (EC-JRC) and the
German Agency for International Collaboration (GIZ).
<br>
<br>
During the last decades African, Caribbean and
Pacific governments have increased their efforts in
establishing protected areas. In Africa protected
areas cover slightly over 2 million km² or 7% of the
continent’s 30 million km²; in the Caribbean they
cover 70,000 km² representing 29% of this region; in
the Pacific close to 1,466,000 km² are under
protection, mostly represented by large marine parks
and Community Managed Protected Areas in coastal and
marine areas. In spite of these efforts the rate of
the loss of biodiversity hasn't slowed down. Many of
the protected area systems of ACP countries are not
achieving the objectives for which they were created
particularly in terms conserving key species and
maintaining natural ecosystems and the services they
provide.<br>
<br>
Addressing this problem is the main challenge that
the BIOPAMA project will address through capacity
building, using the possibilities and opportunities
offered by the Convention on Biological Diversity,
and in particular, its Programme of Work on
Protected Areas (POWPA).<br>
<br>
The BIOPAMA project will assist involved Pacific
Island countries in developing a framework for
improving technical and institutional approaches
through capacity building and regional cooperation
to manage biodiversity conservation, particularly in
protected areas. It will contribute to the
conservation of indigenous biodiversity and to the
maintenance of the ecological services provided by
protected areas, particularly for the benefit of
local people who are highly dependent on the use of
natural resources for their livelihoods, and also
for wider social benefits.</span></p>

<p>Bellingham, WA</p>
<p><br>
NW Explorations offers guided flotilla trips from Bellingham, through the Inside Passage up to Southeast Alaska
and back. The naturalist is part of a crew that travels on the lead boat. The clients travel in boats that they have
chartered from NWE, and travel behind (usually) the lead boat. Please see our web site
(<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.nwexplorations.com" target="_blank">www.nwexplorations.com</a>) to get a better idea of the service our company offers. </p>
<p><br>
The naturalist is responsible for giving updates over the VHF radio while the boats are underway. Updates include,
but are not limited to, information regarding local geology, native culture, wildlife and current events of whatever
area you are traveling through. </p>
<p><br>
The naturalist is also responsible for assisting the clients, once we have reached a destination, in finding local
restaurants, services and other general questions about the town. When the flotilla is at an anchorage for the
evening, the naturalist is responsible for leading dinghy tours, nature hikes or tide pooling excursions, as the site
allows. </p>
<p><br>
The naturalist shares in the other crew responsibilities including but not limited to tying down and releasing of
boats, onboard meal preparation and keeping the boat tidy. <br>
