PhD Students
We currently have no open positions. If interested in planning further ahead, contact individual team members named below via: globalwetlandsproject.org/aboutus. Projects are coordinated through the Global Wetlands Project team of data scientists and ecologists.
Only high-achieving Masters or Honours graduates with first-author publications in top journals can be considered. Project availability is dependent on being awarded a scholarship (see application information for currently available Griffith University scholarships)

Potential Topics
Automated monitoring of restored marine environments The massive global effort towards marine and coastal restoration is not yet supported by robust monitoring of outcomes for wildlife, fisheries and biodiversity. Consider projects that shift surveys towards a coordinated, open-science approach to monitoring, that standardises data formats, allows trade-offs or synergies between ecological, socio-economic and cultural benefits to be explored, and facilitates cross-project comparisons and benchmarking. Study would take advantage of leadership within the Global Wetlands Project in automated monitoring of marine environments, including through computer vision on underwater camera streams. Contact: Dr Michael Sievers, Dr Cesar Herrera Mapping the world’s mangrove ecosystem services Mangroves are one of the most valuable ecosystems on Earth, providing us with a range of services including carbon sequestration, coastal protection, fisheries, and water quality improvement. The goal of the project is to refine global maps of ecosystem services of mangrove which could aid in the better management, conservation, and restoration of these valuable ecosystems.
