<h3>Department of Earth System Science</h3>
<h2>Faculty Position in Atmospheric Sciences
(Dynamics)</h2>
</div>
<br>
<div id="text">
<p>The Department of Earth System Science at Stanford
University invites applications for a tenure-track
faculty appointment in the area of Atmospheric
Sciences. The primary focus of the search is in
atmospheric dynamics, although candidates with
interests in the broader atmospheric sciences are
also encouraged to apply. We are searching for a
creative and innovative scholar with a demonstrated
research record who is also committed to
high-quality undergraduate and graduate teaching,
including a demonstrated ability or potential in
teaching and mentoring a diverse student body (such
as women, minorities, and others from
underrepresented backgrounds). The level of the
appointment is open, with a preference for
candidates at the junior rank.</p>
<p>We seek an expert who studies the role of
atmospheric dynamics in shaping climate system
variability and change. Although we are open to a
broad range of specific expertise and research
topics, we are seeking to add expertise in
understanding the fluid dynamics of the atmosphere
within the context of the Earth System. Particular
areas of emphasis could include the hydrological
cycle, atmosphere-ocean and/or atmosphere-sea ice
coupling, tropical meteorology, eddy-mean flow
dynamics, stratospheric dynamics, the dynamics of
extreme weather and climate events, and feedbacks
between the atmospheric circulation and atmospheric
constituents such as trace gases and aerosols.</p>
<p>A candidate's tools and methods may be theoretical,
computational and/or observational, with potential
to establish a vigorous research program, preferably
grounded in geophysical fluid dynamics. In addition,
because a wide range of scientific challenges offer
compelling prospects for future breakthroughs, the
successful applicant will also have demonstrated
interests in interacting effectively with a broad
range of colleagues, such as in the School of Earth,
Energy and Environmental Sciences, the Stanford
Woods Institute for the Environment, or outside
institutions. The successful applicant is also
expected to teach classes and mentor graduate
students in the Department of Earth System Science,
and to teach in the Earth Systems undergraduate
program.</p>
<p>Please apply online with the following application
materials: cover letter, curriculum vitae, a
statement outlining research and teaching experience
and interests, and the names and addresses of three
or more referees, at<a
href="https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/7555"
target="_blank">https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/7555</a>.</p>
<p>The search committee will request letters of
recommendation for a subset of applicants following
review of these materials. Review of applications
will begin<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><b>October
1, 2016</b>. Applications will continue to be
accepted until the position is filled.</p>
<p>Stanford University is an equal opportunity
employer and is committed to increasing the
diversity of its faculty. It welcomes nominations of
and applications from women, members of minority
groups, protected veterans and individuals with
disabilities, as well as from others who would bring
additional dimensions to the university's research,
teaching and clinical missions.</p>
