Dynamical Meteorology

We seek a candidate with expertise in dynamical meteorology, including
(but not limited to) scientists with interests in ocean-atmosphere
interactions. The candidate should develop a research program in

advantage of the institutional strengths of SIO.

in San Diego invites applications to fill one or more positions at the
Assistant Professor (tenure-track) level in one or more of the fields

vigorous research programs and provide intellectual leadership in their
fields while complementing existing expertise at Scripps, other UCSD
departments, and nearby research institutions.

Successful candidates will be expected to teach classes and supervise
research at both the graduate and undergraduate level. The positions
require a PhD degree and a competitive record of publication, as well as
