Jobs and Postdocs

Postdocs

• Nye lab in Fisheries Oceanography postdoctoral scholar to study the effects of climate change on marine fishes and ecosystems
• 2021 MBARI Postdoctoral Fellowship
• Postdoc: effects of freshwater inflow to estuaries at regional scales; hydrology, hydroecology, and estuarine ecology at Texas A&M, open until filled
• Postdoctoral position with Thomas Frölicher at Climate and Environmental Physics Division of the University of Bern in ocean modeling with focus on ocean compound extreme events
• Postdoc join an NSF funded, multi-institutional effort to study ocean carbon cycling in the North Atlantic Ocean using observations from biogeochemical profiling floats and satellites, based at NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory in conjunction with the MBARI Chemical Sensor Lab, has potential for 2.5 years of support
• Postdoctoral researcher in marine climate and biogeochemistry analysis at NORCE/Bjerknes Centre (Norway). The main objective is to explore novel methodologies to identify systematic biases in Earth system models that are robust across multiple scenarios, and subsequently incorporate relevant observational constrain to optimize their future projections in key ocean climate and biogeochemistry fields. Closes 11 December
• Department of Estuarine and Ocean Sciences at the UMASS Dartmouth postdoctoral fellow to study regional horizontal and vertical ocean mixing and its impact on biogeochemical fluxes in oxygen deficient zones, using data from autonomous profiling floats and synthetic drifters driven by regional ocean models. Knowledge of ocean turbulence at small and regional scales, mixing parameterizations, as well as data analysis is required and knowledge of ocean biogeochemistry and experience with Lagrangian models is a plus.  The position is funded by an ONR collaborative study led by Drs. Mark Altabet, Amit Tandon, Geoff Cowles (UMassD), and Eric D’Asaro (UW), and offers broad interdisciplinary work involving analysis of observations produced by regional arrays of autonomous floats some of which are equipped with novel biogeochemical sensors.  Applicants should send a letter stating their interests and qualifications, along with a current curriculum vitae, a brief narrative describing their professional goals, and a list of three references, electronically, to: Mark Altabet (maltabet@umassd.edu)
• Postdoctoral fellow in Molecular Ecology, Genomics or Computational Biology/Bioinformatics to join the Marine Climate Change Unit/Ravasi’s Unit at OIST (https://groups.oist.jp/macc) to work on a long-term project that aims to understand the effects of climate stressors (i.e. ocean acidification and warming) on coral reef fishes.
• Senior Postdoctoral Associate to work with an interdisciplinary team of biological and physical oceanographers at the School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences at Stony Brook University
• Gulf of Maine Research Institute postdoc - with Dr Lisa Kerr and GMRI team, Rutgers University, and NOAA NEFSC - focus on developing an integrated modeling framework to inform marine resource decision-making under projected climate change in the Northeast U.S. shelf ecosystem
• The Department of Geosciences at Princeton University has an opening for a postdoctoral or more senior researcher in the area of ocean biophysical modeling to work with Professor Laure Resplandy, in collaboration with Jessica Luo from the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory. The researcher will investigate the biological and physical carbon pumps occurring at small spatial and temporal scale using a high-resolution bio-physical model and existing observations. The researcher will specifically examine how ecosystem patchiness, vertical plankton migration and trophic interactions at the eddy scale influence the ocean carbon pump.
• Postdoctoral position to explore Southern Ocean climate dynamics through the SOCCOM project.  The position is through the University of Arizona and is closely affiliated with NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory. Formal applications must be submitted to: http://talent.arizona.edu; Position/Posting #: req1883
• Postdoctoral Research Scholar in Ocean Carbon Cycle at  University of Delaware (UD) School of Marine Science and Policy invites applications for a Postdoctoral Research Scholar position in ocean carbon cycle research. The position is available immediately.  The successful candidate will work on ocean carbon cycle research and analytical methods. Specifically, the postdoc will work on improving a novel analytical method that simultaneously measures the concentration and stable isotope of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC and d13C-DIC) with high precision and accuracy at sea and apply the method to fieldwork for ocean carbon cycle research including estimation of anthropogenic CO2 uptake in the Atlantic Ocean and/or estimation of terrestrial and ocean margin carbon export fluxes to the open ocean.  The postdoctoral scholar will make use of state-of-the-art analytical and experimental facilities in Wei-Jun Cai’s Ocean Carbon Research Laboratory. Candidates must have a Ph.D. in either chemical oceanography, analytical chemistry, or a closely related field. The position will be located in the main campus of the University of Delaware in Newark, Delaware. The postdoc will attend field cruises in the South Atlantic Ocean and/or North American ocean margins and is also expected to lead first-authored publications. The appointment will be for one year, with continuation pending performance and funding for up to a total of three years. Please contact Dr. Wei-Jun Cai (wcai@udel.edu) for additional information.
