Projects

Supervisor: Dr Mark Bowler

About the projects

I am interested in supervising projects in Amazonia on:

  • the spatial ecology and bioacoustics of primates and/or other mammals
  • the ecology of harpy eagles and other large eagles
  • citizen science and science/wildlife/conservation tourism.

My research is focused on the Peruvian Amazon, but research in other tropical forests is also of interest where applicants are already familiar with suitable sites/regions.

Candidate Requirements

Applicants should hold, or expect to receive, a First Class or good Upper Second Class Honours degree (or the equivalent). A master’s level qualification would be advantageous but not essential. Experience with data analysis or bioacoustics, especially using R, would also be advantageous.

Non-UK applicants must meet our English language entry requirement.

Enquiries and Applications

Informal enquiries are welcomed and should be directed to Mark Bowler m.bowler@uos.ac.uk

The Projects

I am interested in supervising projects on the spatial ecology and bioacoustics of mammals in agricultural landscapes in East Anglia. This project will use camera trapping and remote audio recording to measure mammal distributions. A focus on bats, larger animals or all mammal groups is possible.
