Oceanic and Terrestrial Biogeochemistry and climate research at Princeton UniversityDue May 30th 2008 or until filled
We invite applications for one or more postdoctoral positions involving model and data based studies of ocean, atmosphere, and terrestrial biogeochemical cycles with relevance to the carbon cycle, climate change, and the response of the ocean and terrestrial biosphere to climate change. Areas of particular interest include but are not limited to: ocean meridional overturning circulation and biogeochemistry; coupled atmosphere-ocean-biogeochemistry earth system modeling; detection and attribution of marine biological interannual variability and response to climate change; and analysis of oceanic and atmospheric carbon system observations. A Ph.D. in physical oceanography, oceanic or terrestrial biogeochemistry, or some related field is required. The successful candidate(s) will join a vigorous interdisciplinary research group and will be able to take advantage of a wide range of related research at Princeton University and GFDL/NOAA.
Applicants are asked to send vitae, a statement of research experience and interests, and names of at least 3 references to Jorge Sarmiento c/o Anna Valerio (apval@splash.princeton.edu), Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Program, Princeton University, 300 Forrestal Road, Princeton, NJ 08540-6654. Review of applications will begin as soon as they are received, and continue until the positions are filled. Princeton University is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer.
