protected areas (MPAs) are an integral component of local,
national, and international strategies for biodiversity

inform this debate and catalyze adaptive management, WWF and
its partners have implemented an interdisciplinary approach
to MPA monitoring and impact evaluation in Indonesia. Our
monitoring efforts build upon established MPA monitoring
protocols and allow us to explore the contribution of MPAs
to biodiversity and habitat conservation as well as to
ecosystem services, fisheries, and other human uses of
marine environments.

Cancer Crabs. Research will be focused on the following
topics: species life history, distribution, population
status, description of the fishery (commercial,
recreational, subsistence, and non-consumption),
interactions with other species (predation, prey,
endangered species), habitat requirements and condition,
socio-economic considerations, threats, and other topics

ASMFC-Managed Sciaenids that will mainly be focused on the
following topics: general and specific threats to sciaenid
habitats; habitat needs for black drum, red drum, spot and
weakfish; and other topics as necessary.

The Namibian Dolphin Project is a non-profit, research and
conservation organization run by a small group of
independent scientists in association with the University
of Pretoria’s Mammal Research Institute and the Namibia
Nature Foundation. Our mission is to research Namibia’s
cetaceans to generate data on these populations that can
be used for their conservation through sustainable
management. See
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.namibiandolphinproject.com/"
target="_blank"><font color="#0000ff">www.namibiandolphinproject.com</font></a>
for project background<br>
<br>
We are currently looking to expand our team and forge
collaborations with researchers working on cetacean
monitoring and health assessment. Consequently, we are
seeking an experienced PhD student or recent post doctoral
graduate (or both) to join our team in Walvis Bay,
Namibia. This person would be expected to take a proactive
approach in developing and leading research efforts within
the framework of our cetacean community health and
monitoring programme during a large coastal construction
project taking place within Walvis Bay.<br>
<br>
Our core research focuses on a small and potentially
threatened population of common bottlenose dolphins (<i>Tursiops
truncatus</i>) with additional research being done on
Heaviside’s dolphin (<i>Cephalorhynchus heavisidii</i>),
dusky dolphins (<i>Lagenorhynchus obscurus</i>) and
humpback whales (<i>Megaptera novaeangliae</i>). New
research will build on photographic, behavioural,
acoustic, stranding and tissue datasets collected since
2008, thus scope to develop research questions is wide.<br>
<br>
Logistical and fieldwork support will be provided but
limited funds are available at the moment and the
successful candidate will be expected to assist in
generating funds through grant applications, sponsorships
(etc) to finance further fieldwork and living costs.<br>
<br>
Although training will be provided, the ideal candidate
will have a background in the relevant field skills:
photo-identification, biopsy sampling, small boat
research, stranding attendance and necropsy and be<br>
able to work independently leading field research efforts.<br>
<br>
The candidate must be reliable, independent and self
motivated and have a drivers licence for manual cars and
be an experienced boat skipper. This position is open to
all nationalities, but those from SADC regions will be
preferred.<br>
<br>
The successful candidate will be expected to relocate to
Walvis Bay, Namibia, for a minimum of 2.5 years during
this project with some time spent in Cape Town, South
Africa.<br>
<br>
Start Date: from July 2014 onwards.<br>
<br>
