[Jpjobs] Fwd: Three faculty positions available at URI

[Julia Westwater]

Dear Colleague,

The Graduate School of Oceanography of University of Rhode Island is 
seeking three new faculty members:

1) Assistant Professor in marine biogeochemistry (posting: 6001261)

2) Assistant Professor in physical oceanography with an interest in 
submeso- and smaller- scale processes (posting: 6001252).

3) Full Professor of Oceanography and Director of the Coastal Resources 
Center (posting: 6001259).

Visit http://www.gso.uri.edu/faculty/gso-seeks-3-new-faculty for a 
general overview of the three positions.

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.

Applications will be reviewed beginning January 7, 2013 and continue 
until the positions are filled. The anticipated start date is September 
2014.  Visit https://jobs.uri.edu <https://jobs.uri.edu/> and search 
individual position numbers to read full position descriptions with 
required and preferred qualifications. Submit applications online, 
including the following in PDF format:?(1) a letter of application; (2) 
curriculum vitae to include the names, email addresses, and telephone 
numbers of at least three references; and (3) a statement of teaching 
and research interests. Other relevant material in support of your 
application may be sent directly to the search chairs (Marine

Coastal Resources Center, David Smith, dcsmith at mail.uri.edu

AA/EEOD employer and values diversity.
