The Department of Ocean, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at Old Dominion
University (ODU) seeks candidates with research interests in sea level
change for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position having an
anticipated start date of Fall 2019. Research interests can include any of
the following: sea level change, ocean dynamics associated with sea level
variability, analysis of global earth system models, and remote and local
influences on sea level variability.  The successful candidate will have
expertise in analysis of global and local observations of sea level change
and its causes, understanding of quantitative tools used to retrieve and
analyze observations, ability to analyze Earth System model solutions and
compare them to observations, and the skills to convey this understanding
to non-specialists. Excellence in oral and written communication is
required. Applicants must have a Ph.D. in ocean science or a related field
as well as one or more years of postdoctoral experience. The successful
candidate will be expected to develop and maintain an independent and
externally funded research program, contribute to teaching at the graduate
and undergraduate level, mentor graduate students, and contribute to ODU’s
Resilience Collaborative and other interdisciplinary research activities
focused on climate change and sea level rise. Exceptional candidates will
be considered for appointment at the Associate Professor level.

strengths in physical, geological, chemical, and biological oceanography,
as well as terrestrial geosciences.
