**Job description**- The postholder will join the research team led by Dr Patrick Collins, Lecturer in Marine Science, School of Biological Sciences, Queen’s University Belfast to work on an EU Funded Programme, Horizon 2020: Technology based impact assessment tool for sustainable, transparent Deep Sea Mining exploration and exploitation (TRIDENT).- We are looking for a Research Fellow to join the QUB Marine Biology Research Group to play a key role in the TRIDENT programme. TRIDENT is tasked with developing technologies and recommended protocols within the European context for managing and monitoring (in real time) the environmental impacts of deep-sea mining.-
- The PDRA will primarily focus on collating existing data relating to the deep-sea mining test site on Tropic Seamount, offshore Mauritania. The data will be interrogated to assess its suitability for an environmental baseline (e.g. assign biotopes using ROV collected video). Data gaps will be identified and prioritised for field work in 2024, with a special emphasis on magnitude and spatial extent of mining impacts to determine baseline parameter sensitivity.- The PDRA will be involved at the initial stages of the project focussing on the development of an environmental baseline assessment of the simulated deep sea mining test site on Tropic Seamount, offshore Mauritania; advancing our understanding of the geological and benthic boundary background environmental processes at Tropic Seamount which possesses cobalt crusts and ferromanganese nodules, assessing the environmental impact of simulated mining against the baseline and improving environmental baseline draft recommendations.-
