About the scholarship
This PhD project aims to assess the impacts of interregional flows, such as international trade, on landscapes, land use, ecosystem services, and environmental outcomes. These flows connect environmental and socioeconomic processes across regions and are referred to as ‘telecoupling’. The effects of telecoupling are an emerging global sustainability and research challenge. The research specifically aims to advance understanding of the interconnectedness and consequences of global economic and other activities on the environment across international boundaries. It will include case studies and governance assessments to identify targeted opportunities for advancing environmental and sustainability outcomes, especially for biodiversity conservation and maintenance of ecosystem services.
The candidate will be supervised by Professor Jonathan Rhodes and Dr Brooke Williams and you will join a dynamic research group focussed on tackling the world’s major sustainability and biodiversity conservation challenges. You will have the opportunity to engage in a dynamic environment with members of Queensland University of Technology research centres and groups and a network of international collaborators. This project comes with a fully funded PhD scholarship.
