PhD scholarship in Revealing the drivers of coastal wetland vegetation establishment to improve restoration outcomes

This is a STEM College Industry-Funded PhD Scholarship at RMIT University focused on coastal wetland vegetation establishment research. The scholarship aims to reveal the drivers that influence coastal wetland vegetation establishment with the goal of improving restoration outcomes for these critical ecosystems. This research is particularly important for understanding how to successfully restore degraded coastal wetlands, which play vital roles in coastal protection, carbon sequestration, and biodiversity conservation. The scholarship provides comprehensive support for a doctoral candidate to conduct advanced research in this environmental science domain over a 3.5 year period.
