As Singapore is one of most water-scarce countries in the world, water management is critical. The Public Utilities Board has recently commissioned the National University of Singapore’s Department of Biological Sciences to develop a lentic macro-invertebrate biotic index for shallow tropical lakes. This will complement the extensive water quality sampling regime already in place.
We are seeking a Research Assistant to assist a small team with the development of this biotic index. The candidate should have a degree in biology or related subject and be able to work long hours in the field. Experience of ecological sampling protocols and/or freshwater macro-invertebrates would be advantageous. The post is for 18-months and can start immediately.
Interested candidates are invited to send their CV to Dr Peter Todd at dbspat@nus.edu.sg.
