Canada Research Chair Tier 2 - Integrated Coastal and Ocean Management, 
Dalhousie University

Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada


Marine Affairs Program, Faculty of Science

Application Deadline 15 October 2013

The Marine Affairs Program (MAP) of the Faculty of Science at Dalhousie 
University invites applications for a Social Sciences and Humanities 
Research Council (SSHRC) Canada Research Chair Tier 2 in Integrated 
Coastal and Ocean Management. It is anticipated that the appointment 
will be tenure-stream and made at the Assistant Professor level. Details 
about the CRC program are available at: http://www.chairs-chaires.gc.ca/.

The concept of Integrated Coastal and Ocean Management (ICOM), codified 
at the Earth Summit in Rio in 1992, addresses the pressures being placed 
upon the world's most productive and fragile littoral zones. It responds 
to the growing societal demands to develop solutions that maximize the 
economic opportunities available from coastal ecosystems while 
minimizing the conflicts that arise due to the multiple array of users 
and uses of these resources. This area of research contributes to 
bridging the significant gap between natural and social scientific 
knowledge in the coastal and ocean environment. It also focuses on the 
policy-making process that results in decisions affecting how the 
multitude of users of the coastal zone interacts with each other and 
with the available ecosystem goods and services.

The position for a SSHRC CRC Tier 2 in Integrated Coastal and Ocean 
Management in MAP supports Dalhousie University’s strategic focus in 
ocean-related interdisciplinary research and contributes to furthering 
Dalhousie’s position as Canada’s most comprehensive Oceans University. 
The successful candidate will have the opportunity to advance knowledge 
in this field and to collaborate with world-renown coastal and marine 
scholars from some six Faculties within the university, as well as with 
businesses, government and civil society partners involved in coastal 
and ocean management.

Candidates for the CRC Tier 2 position must be excellent emerging 
researchers who have demonstrated research creativity in Coastal and 
Ocean Management, have demonstrated the potential to achieve 
international recognition in their particular field of research over the 
next five to ten years and have the potential to attract excellent 
trainees, students and future researchers. A completed PhD including 
evidence of interdisciplinary scholarship is required. Research 
interests could include (but are not limited to) socio-ecological 
consequences of climate change impacts in the coastal and ocean 
environment; changing social and political landscapes of marine and 
coastal areas; risk, vulnerability and resilience of coastal communities 
and associated natural systems; integrated coastal and ocean law and 
policy; and applied social sciences, including ecological economics. 
Experience with graduate level teaching and graduate student supervision 
is preferred.

The Marine Affairs Program is a well established internationally 
recognized interdisciplinary graduate program offering the Master of 
Marine Management degree. The program involves interaction and 
coordination with an array of different Faculties at Dalhousie that 
participate in the delivery of all aspects of the Marine Affairs 
Program. Students traditionally enrolled in this program are a mixture 
of those emerging from undergraduate studies and middle managers on 
leave from governments, non-governmental organizations or the private 
sector.  The Marine Affairs Program attracts national and international 
candidates, with alumni employed, often in positions of considerable 
responsibility, in over 52 countries worldwide. For more information see 
http://marineaffairsprogram.dal.ca/index.php

All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply. Dalhousie University 
is an Employment Equity/Affirmative Action employer. The University 
encourages applications from qualified Aboriginal people, persons with a 
disability, racially visible persons and women. Canada Research Chairs 
are open to individuals of any nationality; offers will be made in 
accordance with Canada Immigration requirements associated with the 
Canada Research Chairs Program.

Interested individuals should send a curriculum vitae, selected 
reprints/preprints, a brief overview of the innovative research program 
they would pursue if awarded the position, evidence of previous teaching 
and supervisory experience, and request three letters of support to be 
sent independently to the Chair of the Selection Committee: Dr. Lucia 
Fanning, Marine Affairs Program, Room 800, Life Sciences Centre,  PO BOX 
15000, Halifax, NS, B3H 4R2, Canada; e-mail lucia.fanning at dal.ca 
<mailto:lucia.fanning at dal.ca>; phone: (902) 494-8390. The deadline for 
receiving applications is: 15 October, 2013. Short-listed candidates 
will be asked to provide a more in-depth description of their proposed 
research program.

Sarasota Dolphin Research Program Internships, Mote Marine Laboratory

Sarasota, FL


The Sarasota Dolphin Research Program (SDRP), a partnership led by the 
Chicago Zoological Society and based at Mote Marine Laboratory in 
Sarasota, Florida, conducts the world's longest-running study of a

dolphin population. The program's primary goal is to contribute to a 
better understanding of the structure and dynamics of populations of 
small cetaceans, as well as the natural and anthropogenic factors that

impact them. The SDRP uses an interdisciplinary and collaborative 
approach in conducting studies of bottlenose dolphins within Sarasota 
Bay, Tampa Bay, Charlotte Harbor, and the Gulf of Mexico coastal

waters. For more information about the SDRP, please visit: 
www.sarasotadolphin.org <http://www.sarasotadolphin.org>.


The SDRP is in the process of selecting volunteer interns for our 
Winter/Spring 2014 internship program (a minimum of 10 weeks of 
participation during 6 January -- 25 April, with applications due by

Sept 1st). Please note that we are only seeking 3-4 interns this session 
and that we receive many more applications that we have openings -- the 
selection process is very competitive. The successful

candidates will participate in the following research projects:


1) *Dolphin population monitoring project**:* (/YEAR ROUND/) This study 
will continue to monitor the resident bottlenose dolphin community in 
Sarasota Bay. Duties in the field will include assisting with

boat-based photographic identification surveys for dolphin groups one to 
two weeks per month. Behavioral, location, individual, and environmental 
data will be recorded for each dolphin group, and additional data 
related to human-dolphin interactions will also be collected in 
conjunction with this project. While in the lab (at least 2 wks per 
month), work will generally involve photo-identification of dolphins, 
computer data entry, video logging, dolphin dorsal fin identification 
catalog maintenance, equipment maintenance and other duties.


2) *Dolphin prey and habitat use project**:* (/JAN-MAR & JUN-SEPT ONLY/) 
This study will use the Sarasota dolphin community and fish populations 
to study relationships between distributions of dolphins and their prey 
and factors that affect fish community ecology, such as red tide. While 
in the field, work will involve sampling of fish communities through 
purse seining techniques, collection of prey fish for nutritional 
analysis, and collection of other environmental data. Interns may 
participate in this project 2-3 days per month.


Interns should expect to spend about 20% of their time in the field, and 
about 80% of their time in the lab working with data, or performing 
equipment maintenance. There is no compensation for these internship 
positions, and successful applicants will be responsible for their own 
living and transportation expenses during the time of the internship. 
Shared housing opportunities near Mote Marine Laboratory may be 
available (cost: $85/week). A few scholarships are available from Mote 
Marine Laboratory through a competitive application process (US citizens 
only).


Applicants would ideally have the following qualifications:

* Minimum of 18 years of age and engaged in or recently 
completedundergraduate studies;

* A background or degree in Biology, Marine Biology, Ecology,Zoology or 
a related field;

* Basic computer proficiency in Microsoft Office programs(especially

contact information, exact dates and duration of availability, where you 
learned about the internship

opportunity (/e.g. /Mote, SDRP, Brookfield Zoo website, MARMAM, etc.), 
and that you have provided all application materials to the Mote intern 
office, as detailed above.


All applications will be reviewed; those received by the application 
deadline of September 1st will be given first priority. We are seeking 
3-4 interns for the winter and spring, depending on scheduling. These
