Postdoctoral opportunity in ocean biogeochemistry modeling

Department of Atmospheric Science (www.atmos.colostate.edu) invites applications for a postdoctoral researcher. This position is expected to contribute to a currently funded NSF project on oceanic oxygen variability as a member of the research team led by Dr. Ito (ito.atmos.colostate.edu). Research opportunities include numerical modeling of biogeochemical tracers using an ocean general circulation model and interpretation of model output. A Ph.D. in atmospheric and oceanic sciences or closely related field is required. Experiences with numerical modeling, climate variability, ocean dynamics and/or marine biogeochemical cycles are preferred. Questions about the position can be directed to Dr. Ito (ito@atmos.colostate.edu).  To apply, submit a cover letter, CV and the contact information for three
professional references by email (preferred) or mail to: Stephanie Rosso, Search Chair, Department of Atmospheric Science, Campus Delivery 1371, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO
