1. Research Chair, Dalhousie University

Halifax, Nova Scotia

The Marine Affairs Program (MAP) of the Faculty of Science at Dalhousie 
University invites applications for a Social Sciences and Humanities 
Research Council (SSHRC) Canada Research Chair Tier 2 in Integrated 
Coastal and Ocean Management. It is anticipated that the appointment 
will be tenure-stream and made at the Assistant Professor level. Details 
about the CRC program are available at: http://www.chairs-chaires.gc.ca/.

The concept of Integrated Coastal and Ocean Management (ICOM), codified 
at the Earth Summit in Rio in 1992, addresses the pressures being placed 
upon the world's most productive and fragile littoral zones. It responds 
to the growing societal demands to develop solutions that maximize the 
economic opportunities available from coastal ecosystems while 
minimizing the conflicts that arise due to the multiple array of users 
and uses of these resources. This area of research contributes to 
bridging the significant gap between natural and social scientific 
knowledge in the coastal and ocean environment. It also focuses on the 
policy-making process that results in decisions affecting how the 
multitude of users of the coastal zone interacts with each other and 
with the available ecosystem goods and services.

The position for a SSHRC CRC Tier 2 in Integrated Coastal and Ocean 
Management in MAP supports Dalhousie University’s strategic focus in 
ocean-related interdisciplinary research and contributes to furthering 
Dalhousie’s position as Canada’s most comprehensive Oceans University. 
The successful candidate will have the opportunity to advance knowledge 
in this field and to collaborate with world- renown coastal and marine 
scholars from some six Faculties within the university, as well as with 
businesses, government and civil society partners involved in coastal 
and ocean management.

the Agency.  NHEERL scientists utilize a broad range of molecular, 
cellular and animal assays along with human and ecological studies to 
produce methods, models and data needed to inform the Agency’s health 
and ecological risk assessment processes.  In addition to its intramural 
research, NHEERL fosters collaborative research projects with other 
government agencies, academia and other scientific institutions to 
complement NHEERL and ORD’s mission-oriented efforts as well as to

determine meal sizes delivered to offspring. The analyses to be 
undertaken will consider 4 years of data, including one year of known 
extreme prey shortage. The successful candidate will undertake 
statistical analyses of i) meal size, ii) parental weight change over 
the course of the breeding season; iii) foraging trip number and 
duration; and iv) changes in each of these variables both within and

9. Marine Geophysicist, British Antarctic Survey

Cambridge, England

Within the IceSheets programme at BAS a particular focus of current 
research is on understanding ice sheet change during the late 
Quaternary. Working mainly around West Antarctica, we aim to determine 
the extent of the glacial maximum ice sheet, its retreat history and 
what evidence there is for late Quaternary ice sheet collapse. Future 
aims include closer interaction with glacial modellers to integrate 
results with palaeo-ice sheet models.

To help us in this work we would now like to recruit a suitably 
qualified marine geophysicist for an open-ended post to collect, process 
and interpret multibeam echo sounding data and acoustic sub-bottom 
profiles from polar continental shelves, slopes and deep ocean basins. 
The post will also involve work on existing seismic reflection data, and 
assisting with the collection and analysis of sediment cores. The 
successful applicant will become a member of a team based in Cambridge 
and will participate in Antarctic research cruises that will involve 
absences from the UK of approximately one to two months. He/she will be 
expected to integrate results from a range of geophysical and other data 
to interpret past glacial and sedimentary processes, the sequence of 
events during deglaciation, and how these changes affected sediment 
delivery to the deep ocean. There will also be opportunities to work 
with glacial geophysicists to study subglacial processes through 
integration of oversnow results that provide information about modern 
subglacial environments with offshore data that provide information 
about comparable past environments.
