Deep sea collections from offshore sw Australia available research on deep-water coral geochemistry (Contact Dr Julie Trotter). A suite of geochemical proxy applications would be pursued to reconstruct environmental changes occurring over different timescales in intermediate and deep waters within the SE Indian Ocean and Southern Ocean.
UWA has unrivalled analytical capabilities with the combined infrastructure of the Advanced Geochemical Facility for Indian Ocean Research (Clean Room, Q-ICPMS, HR-ICPMS, x2 MC-ICPMS and laser systems) together with the Centre for Microscopy, Characterisation and Analysis (e.g. SIMS, NanoSIMS, tomography), which are central to characterising the chemical and microstructural compositions of biological archives.
Potential students will be required to apply for relevant scholarships so will need to meet UWA’s academic requirements for eligibility
Interested candidates should contact Dr Julie Trotter (julie.trotter@uwa.edu.au) and send their complete CV including publications as well as their academic records of BSc, Honours and/or MSc degrees. Statements regarding specific research interests are also encouraged. Those with experience in geochemistry and mass spectrometry are especially sought and will be considered most favourably.

From time to time we advertise post-doctoral opportunities funded by our research projects. In addition to these project related positions, early career researchers may wish to consider applying for an Australian Research Council Discovery Early Career Research Award (DECRA). These competitive awards provide salary and research funds that help to support early career researchers.
If you would like to join our research group and are considering applying to this scheme (or a similar scheme) please contact us in the first instance to see if your research aligns with our group.
