• The Institute of Marine and Antarctic Science (IMAS) at the University of Tasmania is hiring a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Biogeochemical Modelling to contribute to the research project “Constraining the additionality problem for Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE)”. The aim of this project is to enable the quantification of additionality during large-scale OAE simulations by making experimentally-informed improvements to Australia’s Earth System Model, ACCESS-OM3.  The position has a strong team focus and will collaborate across an exciting nexus of emerging research into marine carbon dioxide removal based in Hobart. The position is up to 3 years (renewed annually) and total compensation is ~AUD 120,000 per year plus relocation (10k).  For detailed information email tyler.rohr@utas.edu.au. To apply, email a CV and 1-page Cover Letter to tyler.rohr@utas.edu.au.  Applications will be considered until Jan. 15^th, 2024.

• We are seeking talented and creative individuals to join the Ocean Dynamics group at the University of St Andrews in Scotland. There are two 2-year postdoc positions available to work on ocean physical and biogeochemical dynamics and their impact on climate - with a particular focus on the high-latitude oceans - using observations, numerical models, and theory. We are most interested in finding researchers who will bring their own experience and interests into the group and allow for co-design of exciting and impactful research. We encourage anyone with aligning interests to get in touch, irrespective of whether these specific projects speak to them. Application deadline December 18th, 2023; start dates flexible:
  Postdoc on changing biogeochemical cyclesPostdoc on dynamics of subpolar gyres
• Postdoctoral Research Associate at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. Apply by January 1, 2024
• Postdoctoral and Research Scientist Cluster Hire: Inorganic Carbon and Water Modeling of Enhanced Weathering and Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement. We intend to hire seven professionals (postdoctoral associates and/or research scientists) to participate in the Global Ocean and Land Alkalinization (GOAL-A) Project.  This study, which is funded by the Department of Energy (DOE) Earth Shot Program, is a collaboration among scientists at Yale, Georgia Tech, Princeton, and Texas A&M universities that aims to create a soils-to-oceans modeling framework to evaluate the efficacy, co-benefits, and risks of enhanced mineral weathering (EMW) and ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE). To support this interdisciplinary initiative, we are seeking applicants with proficiency in modeling that is relevant to simulating physical and chemical processes that govern the flows of water, energy, and chemicals within and between watersheds, river networks, the atmosphere, and the ocean. We are especially interested in candidates with expertise in earth-system and climate modeling, ocean circulation/biogeochemical modeling, river-network modeling, watershed modeling, and reactive transport modeling.  Please follow the below links for information on applying to specific universities: For Yale, Georgia Tech, and Texas A&M positions please click here.
