class="">The Department of Marine Sciences at the University of
Connecticut (UConn) invites applications for a 9-month,
tenure-track position as Assistant Professor in the area of
physical oceanography. We seek candidates with physical
oceanographic expertise that can include turbulence, waves,
air-sea interaction, and physical ocean dynamics. Preference will
be given to those who apply observations to studying processes
controlling mass, momentum, and energy transfer across boundaries
(atmosphere and benthic), across density fronts, and throughout
the ocean interior. Competitive candidates should have experience
in the development and use of modern measurement technologies,
data analysis, and in the advancement of theory. </span>
