Dear All,
The Ocean Sciences Department UC Santa Cruz is searching for a physical
oceanographer. Details about the position description are included below
and can be found at
http://apo.ucsc.edu/academic_employment/jobs/JPF00404-17.pdf
Review of Applicants will begin on December 16, 2016.
Best regards,
Chris
The Ocean Sciences Department of the University of California, Santa
Cruz (UCSC) invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position in
Physical Oceanography. We seek a physical oceanographer with a research
focus on physical processes within the ocean and ocean dynamics.
Preferred areas of interest include modeling of coastal problems such as
coastal upwelling, cross-shelf transport, shelf/slope exchange, and
eastern boundary current processes, although candidates with a broader
range of interests will also be considered. Experience with and interest
in interdisciplinary problems such as physical influences on ocean
biology, biogeochemistry or fisheries, on event or climate-related
time-scales, is desirable. This position is part of a cluster hire in
support of the new Environmental Sciences undergraduate program at UCSC
and our growing interdisciplinary research focus on coastal science and
policy. The successful candidate will be expected to develop and
maintain a vigorous research program that complements existing
activities within the department. Candidates must be seriously committed
to teaching general ocean sciences courses as well as specialty courses
in their field of expertise. Teaching responsibilities will require this
individual to have considerable breadth in physical oceanography. We are
especially interested in applicants who can contribute to the diversity
and excellence of the UCSC academic community through research,
teaching, and/or service.
RANK: Assistant Professor
SALARY: Commensurate with qualifications and experience, academic year
(9-month) basis
