He is a member of the Victorian Wader Study Group and since 1997 has served on the committee of the Australian Wader Studies Group. In addition he managed the joint banding database of these groups. Gosbell was chairman of the Shorebird Working Group of the Flyway Partnership dedicated to protection of migratory pathways from eastern Asia to Australasia, and published on the birds using this pathway. He was one of the first researchers to recognise the importance of geolocators for the remote study of breeding colonies.1995Career position - Member, Victorian Wader Study Group19951995Life event - Retired19972006Career position - Committee Member, Australian Wader Studies Group20062010Career position - Chairman, Australasian Wader Studies Group20172017Award - John N.
