Post-doctoral Scholar in ocean biogeochemical
modeling. The
Department of Earth System Science at the University of California, Irvine
seeks a postdoctoral scholar to participate in research on ocean biogeochemical
cycles. The project involves the continued development of computationally
efficient global ocean biogeochemistry models. The successful candidate will
work closely with Fran¨ois Primeau and Keith Moore to construct and test
hypotheses regarding the role of the iron cycle, particulate fluxes and
re-mineralization profiles on the large-scale distributions of biogeochemical
tracers during past and present climates. The position will be initially for 1
year, renewable up to 2.5 years, salary commensurate with qualifications. The
successful candidate should have a PhD in oceanography or related fields.
Experience with developing and running 3D ocean general circulation models
including biogeochemical modules is desirable. Send applications including CV, a statement of research
interests and a list of three references to: Dr. Fran¨ois Primeau, Rm 3216
Croul Hall, Department of Earth System Science, University of California,
Irvine, Irvine, CA 92697-3100. Electronic submissions are preferred and can be
sent to fprimeau@uci.edu.
