Graduate School of Oceanography of University of Rhode
Island is seeking three new faculty members:</div>

</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas; font-size: medium; ">1)
Assistant Professor in marine biogeochemistry (posting:

</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas; font-size: medium; ">2)
Assistant Professor in physical oceanography with an
interest in submeso- and smaller- scale processes
(posting: 6001252).</div>

a general overview of the three positions.</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas; font-size: medium; "><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas; font-size: medium; ">The
Search Committee for the second of these positions has
identified you as someone who might be able to help
spread the word to potential applicants. The focus of
this position, submesoscale-to-microstructure processes,
emphasizes the dynamical connectivity between these
scales, and how these processes provide information
upscale and receive information from larger scales.
Rapid advances in platforms, sensors, and modeling place
URI at the threshold to elucidate the physics on these
relevant space-time scales and their linkages to
ecological and biogeochemical processes. Preference
will be given to candidates with an interest in adapting
and/or developing in situ instrumentation to observe
these processes. The successful applicant is expected
to develop an externally funded research program and to
contribute to GSO's graduate and undergraduate teaching
missions.</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas; font-size: medium; "><br>
</div>
<div style="font-family: Consolas; font-size: medium; ">Applications
will be reviewed beginning January 7, 2013 and continue
until the positions are filled. The anticipated start
date is September 2014. Visit <a moz-do-not-send="true"
