Hi Folks, We are seeking two highly qualified candidates for post doctoral fellowships to work on a large collaborative project focused on underwater noise disturbance to bowhead whales (*Balaena mysticetus*) in the Canadian Arctic. The candidates would work closely with Dr. Stephen Insley and Dr. William Halliday with Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) Canada ( www.arcticnoise.ca) and Dr. Francis Juanes at the University of Victoria ( www.juaneslab.weebly.com), and would be based in the Department of Biology at the University of Victoria in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. These fellowships will focus on three main tasks: 1) bioacoustic analyses of large passive acoustic monitoring datasets to examine spatial and temporal trends in the presence of bowhead whales and other marine animals, as well as documenting underwater noise from ships; 2) examining the reaction of bowhead whales to ships and underwater noise from ships using satellite telemetry data and possibly acoustic tags; 3) examining the current noise exposure to bowhead whales by combining acoustic propagation modeling with ship tracking data, and then examining mitigation strategies for reducing noise exposure to bowhead whales. The exact tasks assigned to each post doc will depend on the pool of applicants. To see the full job ad, go to www.arcticnoise.ca/opportunities. Interested candidates should email me at whalliday@wcs.org. Please forward on to any relevant email lists. Cheers, Bill *William D.
