Hello, I have a PhD scholarship open to international applicants to work at the Hawkesbury Institute for the Environment. Exciting project with good team and resources for the right person. Restoring Ecosystems under Climate Change | Western Sydney University westernsydney.edu.au Scholarship reference code: PS2024_087_HIE This PhD project will investigate whether seed sourced from future climate analogue sites can perform better than local seed under current and future climate conditions (warming and decreased rainfall). The project aims to examine the establishment, performance, and function of a diverse array of ground cover species directly seeded into restoration plots in threatened grassy woodlands. The research findings will inform strategic restoration approaches to improve long-term biodiversity outcomes. Applications close 30 September Please distribute to potential candidates, and email with any questions.
