NOAA Sea Grant Knauss Fellowhip

该研究员将参与制定海洋和陆地保护区管理计划，并参与制定关于南极洲包括海洋地区环境保护的政策立场。项目还包括审查和准备美国在南极洲的科学和业务活动的环境影响评估。有些工作将涉及北极科学活动的环境评估。所获得的技能将包括了解《南极条约》体系范围内的机构间和国际治理，了解复杂生态系统的海洋和陆地组成部分之间的关系，熟练掌握环境影响评估进程以及管理计划的制定和编制。研究员最终将了解广泛的环境保护活动及其与南极洲科学研究和业务活动的相互关系。交付成果将包括供国际审查的保护区管理计划最后草案，以及供高级管理层就《南极条约》体系内的一系列环境、生态系统管理和保护问题提出的立场文件。工作将包括与《南极条约》、《环境保护议定书》和《南极海洋生物资源保护公约》有关的活动。

The Fellow would participate in the development of marine and terrestrial protected area management plans and in the development of policy positions on environmental protection in Antarctica, including marine areas. Projects would also include reviewing and preparing environmental impact assessments for U.S. science and operational activities in Antarctica. Some work would involve environmental assessments of science activities in the Arctic. The skills gained would include an understanding of interagency and international governance within the context of the Antarctic Treaty system, understanding the relationship between marine and terrestrial components of complex ecosystems, proficiency in environmental impact assessment process and in the development and preparation of management plans. Ultimately the Fellow would gain an understanding of a broad range of environmental protection activities and their interrelationship with scientific research and operational activities in Antarctica. The deliverables will include final draft management plans of protected areas for international review and position papers for senior management on a range of environmental, ecosystem management, and protection issues within the Antarctic Treaty system. Work would include in activities related to the Antarctic Treaty and the Protocol on Environmental Protection and the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources.
