PhD opportunity: 3D mapping of caves
We have a PhD opportunity reopened now for someone interested in developing their 3D laser mapping skills.Specifically, the project aims to map cave ceilings at sites across Australia, to identify water flow pathways through limestone from the surface to the groundwater.
The researcher will join a team of climate and groundwater scientists on the project ‘caves and their stalagmites: linking climate to groundwater recharge’.
Further information is available on the flier.
