• Research Assistant (ecological impacts of climate change)
  The Environment Institute has been awarded funding by the Australian Research Council for a Linkage project that seeks to deliver the computational tools required to anticipate biological reactions to climate change in the context of other human-driven threatening processes, and so guide proactive management responses. We are currently seeking a Research Assistant to join this project to work on dataset preparation and analyses on the mechanisms of synergistic feedbacks between climate change and non-climatic factors on species extinction risk.
