A 2-year fixed position located in Poole, Dorset, with district wide travel. £23,283 - £31,663 (inclusive of a 10% unsociable hours allowance: annual progression subject to performance). Overview We are currently looking for an individual who will take a role in the delivery of sustainable fisheries management in the inshore coastal waters of Hampshire, Dorset and the Isle of Wight. In this exciting and dynamic role, the successful candidate will support the delivery of proportionate and effective enforcement of EU, National and Byelaw legislation, with an emphasis on the promotion of compliance via stakeholder engagement. Southern Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authority (IFCA) manage sustainable inshore fisheries out to six nautical miles. The diverse commercial and recreational fisheries within the District play a vital role in supporting the coastal communities along our coast. The District also hosts a network of nationally and internationally important Marine Protected Areas. In this role you will help the IFCA deliver sustainable inshore fisheries management through stakeholder engagement and education; the promotion of fisheries governance strategies to aid in the promotion of compliance and the undertaking of enforcement to ensure healthy seas and a viable fishing industry. This is an exciting time to join the Authority and we look forward to receiving applications from dynamic and motivated individuals who are invested in promoting and delivering the IFCA Vision. Role Profile Background Information Application Form For an informal discussion please contact Deputy Chief Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Officer Neil Richardson on 01202 721373.

Scientific and Technical Location: Marine Institute, Oranmore, Co. Galway, Ireland Organisation Description The Marine Institute is a non-commercial, semi-state body which was formally established by statute in October 1992. We are the national agency responsible for marine research, technology, development and innovation (RTDI). The Marine Institute seeks to assess and realise the economic potential of Ireland’s 220 million acre marine resource; promote the sustainable development of marine industry through strategic funding programmes and scientific services; and safeguard the marine environment through research and environmental monitoring. The institute works in conjunction with the Department of Agriculture, Food and Marine (DAFM) and a network of other government departments, semi-state agencies, national and international marine partners. Summary of the RoleThe Scientific and Technical Officer (STO) will work within the pelagic fisheries team on the analysis, assessment and management of pelagic fish stocks. The job will be focused on stock assessment, management strategy evaluation through population simulation and the provision of management advice on commercially exploited pelagic stocks. These activities will deliver part of Ireland’s obligations under the Data Collection Multi Annual Programme (DCMAP) funded under the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (EMFF 2014 to 2020). Pelagic fish stock assessment is a key component of this exciting position. Among the duties and responsibilities include:

Marine Institute is an equal opportunities employer Closing Date: Monday, 4 November, 2019 Researcher Marine GeosciencesJoin our Research department as a geologist or geophysicist for the EU project “BASTA”, which aims to address challenges concerning the efficient identification of buried and exposed munition in the sea, within an ever-growing set of available data. You will perform research on detailed 3D sub-bottom imaging for munition detection, using a novel approach for cost-effective data acquisition.
Researcher marine geosciences: sub-bottom imaging for munition detectionOffshore dumped munitions constitute a serious safety risk for users of our coasts and seas. In the past decade, various European research projects have put the topic on the political agenda, but many challenges remain. One of the major challenges concerns the efficient identification of buried and exposed munition within an ever-growing set of available data. Several good sensing technologies exist, but the different data are seldom fully integrated into a consistent framework. Moreover, for subsurface investigation (i.e. buried objects) the available technologies are not sufficient with regard to spatial (x,y,z) resolution. The EU project ‘BASTA ‘ (2020-2022) aims to address these issues and is aimed at cost-efficient detection and recognition of sea-dumped munition, both for regional scale reconnaissance and for local scale surveys of known sites. Major objectives include development of cost-efficient data acquisition combing ship-based and Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV)-based surveys, joint analysis of data using Artificial Intelligence (AI) methodologies and multi-sensor databases, and on-route AI algorithm learning. The final goal is to develop a model that (1) predicts buried munition and (2) predicts the type of munition for surficial munition. The project combines research institutes and industrial partners from Germany and Belgium for maximum valorization of the developed techniques. The main task of VLIZ in the BASTA project concerns detailed 3D sub-bottom imaging for munition detection. Systems using a narrow acoustic beam (such as the parametric echosounder) provide the (sub-decimeter) resolution needed for object detection, but any objects that lie outside the survey path remain undetected. Recently, a novel 3D approach was developed using a multitransducer parametric echosounder system (SES-2000 Quattro). The system consists of four individual transducers in a line array, which allows 3D imaging with very high data density. This 3D approach will be compared with a smart 2D (or pseudo-3D) approach for deeper water, where possible involving an autonomous vehicle or platform. Both approaches will be tested in different test sites in the North Sea and Baltic Sea where ample ground-truth data/information is available. Finally, the approach will be verified at a test site where no/little information is available. Our offer

Researcher Marine Shallow Gas ResearchJoin our Research department as a researcher for the Strategic Basic Research project ‘DISARM’, which aims to develop a scientific approach for risks and management of munition dumpsites at sea. You will perform research on the properties and behaviour of biogenic gas in shallow sediments in the region of the Paardenmarkt munition dumpsite.
Researcher marine shallow gas researchThe Paardenmarkt is one of the many munition dumpsites in our seas and oceans. A few metres below the seafloor, ca. 35.000 tons of chemical munition from WW1 are buried. Up to now, research of this dumpsite has been very fragmented and many uncertainties remain. VLIZ coordinates the ‘DISARM’ project (2020-2023) in close collaboration with Flemish and federal research institutes, which aims to address knowledge gaps and develop an integrated scientific approach to support risk assessment and management of marine chemical munition dump sites. One of the uncertainties regards shallow gas. The Paardenmarkt region is marked by biogenic gas in the shallow sediments. Little is known about the gas, yet this information is crucial since it may affect corrosion processes, microbiological communities, spreading of toxicants, fresh/salt water fluxes, etc. The objective is to sample the gas in the sediment and water column on different locations near the dumpsite and analyse the gas, which should provide information on the concentration and chemical composition. Multisensor core logging is envisaged to estimate basic physical properties of the gas charged sediments. The possibility to install gas sensors on an unmanned surface vehicle (USV) or AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle), to obtain stationary time series, will also be investigated. Our offer
