Abstract

0112325 Baird An opportunity exists for a Sea Grant Fellow to participate in the development of new and revised management plans to protect both marine and terrestrial areas in Antarctica which have been designated for their unique scientific values. Guidelines exist to assist in the process, but the Fellow would be responsible for developing a finished draft plan. Additional responsibilities would involve assistance in coordinating with international organizations involved in the review of the plans to ensure that the concerns of other Antarctic Treaty parties had been taken into account before the final plans were presented at an Antarctic Treaty Consultative meeting for approval.
