Niki Diogou, PhD Niki is a Mitacs Accelerate post doctoral fellow with WCS Canada and the University of Victoria (supervised by Stan Dosso and William Halliday). Niki is conducting a large bioacoustic analysis for bowhead whales and other species in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region, with the explicit goal of delineating the spatial and temporal distribution of bowheads in this region. Niki's fellowship is part of our Canada Nature Fund for Aquatic Species at Risk grant on bowhead whales. Najeem Shajahan, PhD Najeem is a post doctoral fellow with WCS Canada (supervised by William Halliday). Najeem's research is focused on measuring source levels of vessels from passive acoustic data collected in the Arctic, starting with all of WCS Canada's datasets. |
Deborah Sharpe Debbie is a PhD student at the University of Victoria (co-supervised by Francis Juanes and Stephen Insley), and is supported by a Mitacs Accelerate PhD fellowship with WCS Canada as a partner organization. Debbie is studying the impacts of underwater noise from vessels on ringed seal movement behaviour. Debbie's fellowship is part of our Canada Nature Fund for Aquatic Species at Risk grant to study ringed seals. Karlee Zammit Karlee is a MSc student at the University of Victoria (co-supervised by Stan Dosso and William Halliday), and is supported by a Mitacs Accelerate PhD fellowship with WCS Canada as a partner organization. Karlee is developing a deep learning detector for the vocalizations of ringed seals, which our project will then use to study ringed seals within our passive acoustic data. Karlee's fellowship is part of our Canada Nature Fund for Aquatic Species at Risk grant to study ringed seals. Mariana Barbosa Mariana is a PhD student at the University of Victoria (co-supervised by Stan Dosso and William Halliday), and is supported by a Mitacs Accelerate PhD fellowship with WCS Canada as a partner organization. Mariana is studying the impacts of underwater noise from vessels on ringed seal vocal behaviour, and is also focused on ringed seal bioacoustics in the WCS Canada passive acoustic data. Mariana's fellowship is part of our Canada Nature Fund for Aquatic Species at Risk grant to study ringed seals. |
