Mathematical modeling and optimal control for sustainable fisheries management

We are seeking a highly motivated and skilled postdoctoral researcher to join a project focused on developing mathematical models and control theory tools to support sustainable fisheries management. The project will optimize fishing practices to reduce ecological impacts, providing actionable insights to inform policy decisions that balance economic performance with environmental conservation.

Postdoctoral Fellowship in Ocean Observation, Analysis and Prediction

Applications are invited for a two-year postdoctoral fellowship supported by the collaborative research and training program Pacific Rim Ocean Data Mobilization and Technology (PRODIGY) and the Canadian Pacific Robotic Ocean Observing Facility (C-PROOF). The successful candidate will join the C-PROOF team and conduct research on ocean turbulence using observations collected by ocean gliders and other autonomous platforms. They will also contribute to the PRODIGY training program through interdisciplinary research, teaching, mentoring and stakeholder engagement.

Veronica Farrugia Drakard

I am working in partnership with the Hakai Institute on the Sentinels of Change Alliance project, monitoring biodiversity in the Salish Sea. I focus primarily on seaweed ecology and biodiversity, in particular the impacts of climate-related stressors on the seasonality, successional dynamics and environmental tolerances of NE Pacific seaweeds.

Solveig Aamlid

I am working at the quantum matter institute under the grand challenge titled 'Atomistic approach to emergent properties of disordered materials'. I am primarily using computational techniques to study high entropy oxides, but I also do some synthesis and structural characterization to better understand the phase stability of these materials. 

Hugo Lefeuvre

My research interests span OSes, compartmentalization, and more generally systems, security, virtualization, networking, and free-software.
As part of my postdoc, I am exploring various themes around isolation, compartmentalization, and secure software development practices.

Gabriel Bertolini

 Dr. Gabriel Bertolini is a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of British Columbia. He completed his Ph.D. in Geosciences from the University of Aberdeen and Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul in 2020, with a research focus on sand generation and dispersal in ancient sedimentary systems. Dr. Bertolini specializes in utilizing geochemical, geochronological, and petrology tools in detrital minerals, employing multivariate statistics to investigate sedimentary processes. Prior to his current role, Dr.

Xander Huggins

My research at UBC has two overarching objectives. The first is to assess the resilience of groundwater-dependent ecosystems (GDEs) globally to groundwater storage dynamics across land use and socioeconomic contexts. The second is to use resilience-based insights to refine global mapping of GDE location, type, and function.
These objectives are linked by an underlying goal of conducting interdisciplinary, applied science to improve integrated groundwater management across land and water systems. Specific objectives include:
