We are recruiting two postdocs at Oregon State University.

One postdoc will be co-advised by Melanie Fewings 
<http://fewingslab.ceoas.oregonstate.edu/> (OSU/CEOAS, Corvallis, OR) 
and Carlos Moffat <http://www.carlosmoffat.com/> (U. Delaware). The goal 
of the project is to determine the effects of regional wind patterns on 
marine heat waves along mid-latitude eastern ocean boundaries, focusing 
on the time period 2000–present, using satellite and other existing data 
to understand the dynamics of marine heat waves along the California 
Current and Chile-Peru upwelling systems. The full ad is available here:

Another postdoc will be advised by Melanie Fewings 
<http://fewingslab.ceoas.oregonstate.edu/> (CEOAS, Corvallis, OR) in 
collaboration with Jennifer Fisher 
<https://hmsc.oregonstate.edu/cimrs/jennifer-fisher-west-coast-fisheries> (OSU/CIMRS, 
Newport, OR) and Kym Jacobson 
<https://www.nwfsc.noaa.gov/contact/display_staffprofile.cfm?staffid=348> (NOAA 
Fisheries, Newport, OR). The goal of the project is to characterize the 
linkages between changes in basin scale ocean conditions, regional winds 
and local upwelling, and marine ecosystem productivity. A relatively 
high-frequency (biweekly to monthly) 20+ year time series including 
phytoplankton, copepods, and krill collected along the continental shelf 
and slope (2-46 km from shore) off Newport, OR, and other existing data 
sets including physical forcing and hydrography, will serve as the 
foundation for studying links between climate variability and ecosystem 
response. The full ad is available here:
https://jobs.oregonstate.edu/postings/71573

For full consideration, apply by February 18, 2019. The positions will 
remain open until filled. Start date is negotiable, but both positions 
are available March 1.

Please forward to anyone who may be interested and distribute these 
postings widely.

Sincerely,
Melanie Fewings
