Dear all,
Sorry for cross posting.
During 2013, CIRCE in collaboration with ALNILAM, ANSE and the EBD-CSIC is offering 5 Master projects all based on
photo-identification techniques and mark-recapture models to study
long-finned pilot whales of the Strait of Gibraltar and the Alboran Sea.
All of these projects will take place between February and May 2013
with housing offered in a shared room with other
students/volunteers/researchers/staff next to our research centre in
Pelayo, Cadiz, Spain. However, if you would like to stay for a longer
period of time it will be at your own expenses. In order to apply for
these projects, you should send an email to philippe(a)circe.info with
your CV and a cover letter showing only relevant experience related to
the project you are interested in. You can apply for these projects
until the 19th of November. Chosen candidates will be advised on the
26th of November.
These are the titles of the projects that can be found on our website:
