Post Doc Position in Physical Limnology/Air-Sea Interactions

A position at the Postdoctoral level is available at the University of California, Santa Barbara, in physical limnology/air-sea interactions to study the physics of gas exchange at the air-water interface. Study sites include lakes in the arctic, temperate zone, and tropics. The position is full time with a salary of $44,000 to $55,000, depending on experience. The initial appointment is for 1-year on the multiyear project; continuation beyond one year will be based on performance and availability of funding. Applicants must have an earned Ph.D. in physical limnology, physical oceanography, boundary layer meteorology, or environmental engineering with demonstrated experience in analysis and interpretation of observational data and a record of communicating research results. As the research is in part field-oriented, the candidate should have proven ability to conduct research successfully under arduous field conditions. Experience in modeling and working as part of an interdisciplinary team are also desirable. The department is especially interested in candidates who can contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic community through research, teaching, and service. Apply by October 15, 2009, for primary consideration; however, position will remain open until filled. Please send a cover letter describing your research interests and experience, a current resume and names of three referees to: Professor Sally MacIntyre, email: sally@icess.ucsb.edu.
