8.PhD Scholarships (x2)

2 PhD scholarships studying impacts of drought in New Zealand native forest

The project involves exploring the threat of seasonal drought to kauri and associated southern conifers using a field-based drought experiment. There are two scholarships on offer. The first involves measurement of sap flow and other plant water relations parameters. This PhD project will concentrate on native tree species including kauri at the University of Auckland Huapai scientific reserve where the drought experiment will be established. The other project will explore drought mortality mechanisms in southern conifers using field and glasshouse studies. There will be opportunity to work with a mechanistic model of the soil-plant-atmosphere pathway subject to student interest. The full scope of each project is negotiable for the right candidates, subject to fitting into the theme of drought in native forest.
