Tenure-Track Faculty Position in Interdisciplinary Research in Data
Science: Global Biogeochemistry
The University of Rochester has made data science the centerpiece of its
5-year strategic plan, committing to 20 new faculty lines in diverse
areas, a new building, and the establishment of the Institute for Data
Science. We are currently seeking applicants for tenure track positions
in interdisciplinary research areas within data science. This
interdisciplinary search focuses on recruiting candidates who are
excited about engaging in collaborative research that connects advances
in computational approaches across disciplines, ranging from
engineering, to the life, social, and physical sciences. Global
Biogeochemistry is a focus area for one of this year?s interdisciplinary
searches. We seek candidates who integrate biotic (e.g. microbial),
chemical, and geological processes for an interdisciplinary research
focus on understanding global geochemical cycling processes and/or
global climate change. Applicants should have a strong computational
and/or modeling component to their research aimed at mining,
integrating, and/or interpreting large data sets. The rank of the
position is open.
Further information and instructions for this search can be found at:
<http://www.rochester.edu/rocdata/recruit/interdisciplinary.html>.
The search will continue until the position is filled. For full
consideration, individuals should provide complete applications by
January 15, 2014. Applicants should hold a PhD and will be required to
supply a set of refereed scholarly publications, names of references,
and research and teaching statements. Applicants will be asked to select
a set of disciplines most relevant to their research area.
The University of Rochester is a private, Tier I research institution
located in western New York State. It consistently ranks among the top
30 institutions, both public and private, in federal funding for
research and development. The university has made substantial
investments in computing infrastructure through the Center for
Integrated Research Computing (CIRC) and the Health Sciences Center for
Computational Innovation (HSCCI). The university includes the Eastman
School of Music and the University of Rochester Medical Center, a major
medical school, research center, and hospital system. The greater
Rochester area is home to over a million people, including 80,000
students who attend the 8 colleges and universities in the region.
The University of Rochester has a strong commitment to diversity and
actively encourages applications from candidates from groups
underrepresented in higher education. The University is an Equal
Opportunity Employer.

Two Faculty Positions in Extreme Weather and Regional Climate Change
The School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences (SoMAS;
<http://www.somas.stonybrook.edu/>) at Stony Brook University invites
applications for two tenure track positions in Atmospheric Science to
begin as early as Fall 2014. We welcome applicants focusing on extreme
weather and regional climate change. In particular, applicants should
contribute towards improving the physical understanding of extreme
weather (e.g., tropical cyclones, severe convection, flooding), novel
ways to do regional climate downscaling for extreme weather, or the
application of remote sensing to address these issues. Stony Brook has
active research efforts to improve understanding and prediction of
coastal storms, convective systems, storm surge, seasonal variability,
and climate. Successful candidates are expected to develop an
independent externally funded research program, to teach and direct
research at both the undergraduate and graduate levels, and participate
in School and University service. All candidates must have a Ph.D. in a
relevant field, and have demonstrated excellence in research and a
strong commitment to teaching. The positions will be filled at the
Assistant Professor level.
Successful candidates will join a SoMAS faculty internationally known
for their leadership in research in the atmospheric sciences and all the
major disciplines of oceanography. The school has more than 500
undergraduate and graduate students and about 50 faculty and 40 staff
working together to better understand how our marine, terrestrial, and
atmospheric environments function and are related to one another,
providing numerous opportunities for collaborative and
inter-disciplinary research. SoMAS has collaborations with the
Atmospheric Sciences Division at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL;
<http://www.bnl.gov/envsci/>), located nearby, and also has extensive
interactions with the New York City National Weather Service office
located at BNL (<http://www.erh.noaa.gov/okx/tour/index.html>) on extreme
weather (<http://dendrite.somas.stonybrook.edu/CSTAR/>).
Candidates should apply through Campus Job Opportunities
(<http://www.stonybrook.edu/cjo/>), reference #F-8297-13-11, and submit
a Stony Brook University state faculty employment application (available
from the position announcement at the aforementioned jobs site), CV, a
letter of introduction that conveys the candidate's teaching philosophy
and proposed research plans, and names and contact information of three
references (electronic submission in one PDF document is strongly
preferred).
Alternatively, the above-listed materials may be mailed to:
Paulette Gerber, HR Assistant
(ref: Faculty Positions in Atmospheric Science #F-8297-13-11)
School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences
145 Endeavour Hall
Stony Brook University
Stony Brook, NY 11794-5000.
Review of applications will begin on January 15, 2014 and will continue
until the positions are filled.

Vacancy: Research engineer to ICOS Sweden
We invite for applications to the open position as a Research Engineer
in the area of micrometeorology and environmental measurements. The
position has its base at the forest research station, located in the
Svartberget Experimental Forest (Lat 64?14? N, Long 19?14? E) near
Vindeln, about 70 km northwest of the town Ume?, Sweden.
The main task of the position will be to participate in the development
and maintenance of the ICOS monitoring sites in the Vindeln area. A
major part of the work includes supervision, calibration and maintenance
of field equipment, on ground and in towers, as well as data handling
(transfer, quality check and deliveries). The work includes daily
routines as well as temporary intensive campaigns. There may also be
participation in other, relevant research projects that are supervised
from the research station. The work is performed in collaboration within
the ICOS-team, other researcher and research groups and with the staff
members at the research station.
Professional requirements
The position requires an academic exam in natural/technical science
including one or several of the subject?s micrometeorology, physical
geography, environmental physics and biogeochemical measurement
technology. A Ph.D. within one of these fields of science is desirable
but not required. Experience in micro-meteorological methods, automated
systems for biochemical research and field measurements, ability to work
in meteorological tower up to 150 meter, computing and data management
are also considered an advantage. Collaborative competence and ability
to structure and prioritise working tasks efficiently are important
personal qualifications. The ability to express yourself in speech and
writing in English, is also important, and an advantage if in Swedish as
well. Driving license is required.

-------
ICOS - Integrated Carbon Observation System
- is a new European research infrastructure for quantifying and
understanding the greenhouse gas balance of the European continent and
of adjacent regions. The infrastructure is built up as a collaboration
of nationally operated measurement stations in 17 European countries.
ICOS Sweden (http://www.icos-sweden.se) is the Swedish contribution to
this European effort.
High-precision, standardized observations of the exchange of greenhouse
gases and heat between the Earth's surface and its atmosphere form an
essential basis for understanding not only our planet's present climate,
but also past and future developments. It has also become clear that
these studies must be secured beyond the lifetime of a typical research
project. The aim of ICOS is therefore to construct, equip and operate a
network of standardized long-term, high precision integrated monitoring
stations for atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations of CO2, CH4, CO
and radiocarbon-CO2.
