CEDAR email: JOB OPENING: Postdoctoral Position at UCLA and Boston University

[Toshi Nishimura]

Applications are invited for a full-time post-doctoral or assistant
researcher position in Space Physics at the University of California Los
Angeles (UCLA). The successful applicant will work on
magnetosphere-ionosphere-thermosphere coupling, particularly on multi-scale
interaction processes in the high-latitude ionosphere and thermosphere
using multiple data sources, such as auroral imagers, radars,
magnetometers, and low-altitude spacecraft. Work will be in direct
collaboration with both UCLA and Boston University, beginning as early as
January 2019, and will also include collaboration with team members outside
those universities and travel for team meetings. The appointment will be
made through UCLA, but the work location may be at UCLA or Boston
University. The candidate should have a strong background in data analysis
in the magnetosphere, ionosphere or thermosphere, as well as good
presentation and publication records. Ph.D. in a field associated with
Space Physics by the start date of appointment is required.

The review will start upon a receipt of an application. The position will
remain open until filled. The appointment start date can be negotiated. The
initial appointment will be one full year and renewal will be subject to
annual performance reviews and continued funding. A second year of funding
is anticipated. Salary will be commensurate with experience according to
the university salary scaling. Benefits, including medical, dental, and
vision coverage are included in the compensation package.

To apply, please submit your CV, a research statement including your
interest in the research topic above and potential contribution to research
in our groups, and a list of at least three names of references, by email
to Prof. Larry Lyons (larry at atmos.ucla.edu) and Dr. Toshi Nishimura (
toshi16 at bu.edu). Questions can also be sent by email. We will also be
available to meet at the AGU Fall Meeting.
