"text": "Shifting depths: Zooplankton behaviour in a warming ocean\nAs global temperatures rise and ocean productivity declines, one of the most fundamental behaviours in the marine food web—zooplankton diel vertical migration—may be undergoing a dramatic shift. This project asks a pressing question: in a warming ocean, will zooplankton reduce their daytime descents to the safety of deeper waters to feed for longer in surface waters and thus be more at risk of predation by visual predators such as fish? The outcomes have major implications for marine predator-prey dynamics and the biological carbon pump. Climate models and observations increasingly suggest that primary production from phytoplankton will decline, challenging zooplankton to find sufficient food while coping with the higher metabolic demands of warmer waters. By analysing long-term (>60 yrs) global zooplankton datasets, this project will investigate if copepods are already altering their migration patterns, drawing parallels with other climate-driven behavioural changes in the animal kingdom—such as increased diurnal ibex foraging at night to escape heat, despite increased risk. The successful candidate will gain skills in big data analysis, ecological modelling, and climate-ecosystem interactions, contributing to a frontier area of marine science with wide-reaching ecological and biogeochemical consequences."

Jaime (read: Hi-Meh [Hispanic name]) is a Colombian researcher and conservationist, with a background in environmental sciences. He has a master’s degree from the International Institute for Conservation and Wildlife Management from the University of Costa Rica. Jaime has more than a decade of experience working on the field and studying some of the most important populations of marine turtles globally, monitoring major rookeries for leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea), olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea), hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata) and green turtle (Chelonia mydas). Jaime has also been involved in conservation programs to protect the recovering population of jaguars (Panthera onca) at Tortuguero National Park, in Costa Rica. Currently, Jaime is an active member of the International Sea Turtle Society; as such, he has taken part on several symposia both presenting his research outcomes and coordinating regional meetings, he is now a PhD candidate at the University of Queensland, studying migratory connectivity for the two largest nesting populations of green turtles globally, implementing satellite telemetry monitoring combined with stable isotopes analysis to identify important foraging areas supporting these important populations.
