PhD Research Scholarship at Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia.
A PhD research scholarship is available in the Department of Physical Geography, Macquarie University, Sydney, Australia. The project will investigate large scale climate variability and ocean productivity using a coupled climate/ocean/ecosystem model. Various climate time scales will be investigated during the course of the PhD candidature. The project will initially focus on the Indo-Pacific Ocean region. It will be desirable to later extend this study into the Southern Ocean and/or Atlantic Ocean regions.
Applicants should have completed, or expect to complete within the year, a four year undergraduate degree in a relevant discipline (Physical Oceanography, Atmospheric Science, Biological Oceanography, Applied Mathematics, Physics) with first class honours, or an equivalent qualification. Competency in University-level mathematics or physics is essential. Previous numerical modelling experience is highly desirable.
The successful applicant if an Australian citizen/permanent resident, or a New Zealand citizen, would receive a RAACE award; the successful applicant if International would receive an iMURS award. The stipend for the award is currently $18,837 per annum, tax exempt, and the tenure is three years full time subject to satisfactory progress.
Further information on the project may be obtained by emailing Dr Neil J Holbrook via neil.holbrook@mq.edu.au or phoning

Application forms, and conditions for RAACE/iMURS awards, are available from the Higher Degree Research Unit by phoning +61-(0)2-9850-7987, by e-mailing pgschol@mq.edu.au, or by downloading from www.ro.mq.edu.au/hdru/scholar.htm (http://www.ro.mq.edu.au/hdru/scholar.htm)
