Ecologist Program Manager
Application Due Date: July 27, 2010The U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Science, Office of Biological and Environmental Research announces the opening of a permanent Federal position to manage basic research in the natural sciences leading to new and improved understanding of environmental consequences of energy production and use. A specific research focus is the development, implementation, and operation of long-term ecological experiments. This position is involved in conceiving, planning, initiating, and managing environmental sciences research essential to fulfilling DOE's mission. The position is open as a GS-13, GS-14 or GS-15.
Scientists - Chemical Oceanography
Application deadline: August 20, 2010At the Institute of Marine Research we have two vacant positions as researcher in marine carbon chemistry. The positions are permanent, placed in group of Oceanography, with work currently in Tromsø. Institute has started the development of monitoring and research on changes in ocean carbon balance and effects of ocean acidification on marine organisms. In this context, we seek two researchers in chemical oceanography that will work on ocean carbon chemistry. The persons appointed will work in concert with both physical oceanographers and marine biologists.
Qualifications: Doctorate in chemical oceanography or equivalent and experience in carbon chemistry is required. Experience with field observations of carbon parameters is desirable. Personal qualities such as good communication and collaboration capabilities, ability to work independently, effectively and purposefully, as well as the ability to generate, implement and report on project activities will be emphasized. It is assumed that at least one of the candidates have senior competence (code 1110/1183). Field and cruise work, and other travel related to the position can be expected. The positions are remunerated by salary code 1109/1110/1183 according to competency assessment.
Want more information? Contact researcher Yngve Børsheim, program manager Svein Sundby or research group leader Bjørn Ådlandsvik. IMR is an equal opportunity organization and encourage all qualified candidates and women especially to apply. Please note that information about applicants may be published even if the applicant has asked to be exempt applicant list. Applicants will be informed in advance. Submit written application with attached CV, copies of relevant certificates, diplomas and list of publications (application 1109) and three sets of copies of publications and previous skills assessment (application 1110/1183 ) to: Institute of Marine Research, Section Personnel and Management Support, PO Box 1870 Nordnes, NO-5817 Bergen, Norway Mark your application with "36-10 ".

Tenure-Track Faculty Position, Biological Oceanography
Application Due Date: September 1, 2010The School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST) was established at the University of Hawaii at Manoa to promote excellence in interdisciplinary research and graduate education in marine, atmospheric, and geological sciences. The Department of Oceanography within SOEST is inviting applications for a full time, 9-month, tenure-track faculty position in Biological Oceanography in the field of phytoplankton ecology and bio-optics, including ocean-color remote sensing, at the rank of Assistant or Associate Professor, commensurate with experience. The successful candidate will be expected to develop and sustain outstanding oceanographic research and teaching/educational programs, including classroom instruction and contributions to the graduate and undergraduate programs. Applicants must have a Ph.D. degree in oceanography, marine biology, or other relevant discipline; excellent communication skills and demonstrated capability for creative, high quality research; and the demonstrated capability/experience and desire to contribute to teaching and mentoring of undergraduate and graduate students. At the associate professor level, the minimum qualifications are as stated above, with four years of experience at the rank of assistant professor.

Send application to: Search Committee Chair Department of Oceanography University of Hawaii at Manoa 1000 Pope Road Honolulu, HI 96822.
Postdoctoral Investigator
We invite applications for a post-doc to work on model simulations and the theoretical analyses of the sensitivity of the ocean carbon sink to climate driven changes in ocean ventilation. A Ph.D. in oceanography, biogeochemistry or atmospheric sciences is preferred. Strong quantitative skills and programming experience, especially programming in Fortran, matlab or python, is highly desirable. Experience with running large climate models ideal.
The successful applicant will work with Dr. Irina Marinov in the Earth Science Dept at UPenn (http://www.sas.upenn.edu/earth/marinov.html) and with Dr. Jorge Sarmiento and his biogeochemistry group in the Atmospheric Oceanic Sciences Program at Princeton University, and will spend time at both institutions. Applicants are asked to send a curriculum vitae, a statement of research experience and interests, and the names and contact information (phone, e-mail and address) of at least three references to Irina Marinov (imarinov@sas.upenn.edu ), Dept of Earth & Environmental Science, Univ. of Pennsylvania, 240 S. 33rd Street -Hayden Hall 153, Philadelphia, PA 19104.
