FACULTY POSITION IN EARTH AND ATMOSPHERIC SCIENCES AT CORNELL UNIVERSITY
The Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences (EAS) at Cornell University invites applications for an Assistant Professor in the area of extreme weather under climate change. The successful candidate will develop a high quality research program investigating the multi-scale processes linking climate to extreme weather phenomena, such as thunderstorms, tornadoes, tropical and extra-tropical cyclones, flooding, and droughts, and their impacts. The incumbent could take an Earth system approach to the subject, emphasizing the interactions of atmospheric, oceanic and land-surface processes in responding to forcing from the climate system, including future climate change scenarios. The incumbent will also be a committed educator, enthusiastically teaching undergraduate and graduate courses, advising undergraduate and graduate students, and supervising students at all levels in research. The ideal candidate will be able to interact in teaching and research with colleagues having similar interests at Cornell University, particularly in the Colleges of Engineering and of Agriculture and Life Sciences, in which the Department of EAS is jointly located. The responsibilities of the position will be 50% research and 50% teaching.
A Ph.D. in atmospheric science, Earth system science, or a related science or engineering discipline is required. Please submit applications to extreme-weather-search@cornell.edu<mailto:extreme-weather-search@cornell.edu> as a single pdf (15 mb maximum) that includes (1) a cover letter addressed to the Search Committee Chair, Professor Stephen Colucci, and providing the names and contact information for three individuals who are willing to write letters of recommendation; (2) a curriculum vitae; (3) a research plan; and (4) a statement of teaching interests. Applications will be reviewed beginning September 1, 2011.
Cornell University is located in Ithaca, New York and is an equal opportunity, affirmative action educator and employer. Women and members of underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged to apply.

Two funded postdoctoral positions are available focusing on understanding the exciting and quickly evolving area of interactions between the biogeochemistry of the methane and nitrogen cycles and climate. The successful applicant will work on interdisciplinary projects that are relevant for predicting human impacts on biogeochemistry and climate, and involving predictions of future climate. The work will involve modeling the nitrogen and methane cycles and their climate impacts with an emphasis on land and atmospheric processes. One project focuses on the nitrogen cycle, the second project on constraining the emissions nitrogen and methane from land models. These positions can start as early as Fall, 2011 in Peter Hess?s and Natalie Mahowald's groups at Cornell University. The positions requires a PhD in a relevant area. The project involves researchers at multiple institutions with the possibility of travel for collaborations. For more information on Dr Hess?s and Dr. Mahowald's research, please see: http://www.bee.cornell.edu/cals/bee/people/hess.cfm and http://www.geo.cornell.edu/eas/PeoplePlaces/Faculty/mahowald/. Applicants should send an email directly to pgh25@cornell.edu<mailto:pgh25@cornell.edu> and nmm63@cornell.edu<mailto:nmm63@cornell.edu>, and include a CV and three references. Cornell University is an equal opportunity, affirmative action educator and employer.
