The Department of Earth System Science (ESS) at The University of
California Irvine seeks to hire an Assistant Professor with expertise in
the coupling of human and natural systems, with the goal of strengthening
the department’s commitment to understanding and teaching how Earth system
change interacts with human systems. The department is particularly
interested in interdisciplinary researchers who integrate methods of the
natural and social sciences to assess the connections between the global
environment and human activities. Research areas might include, for
example, pathways of sustainable development, the future of global
fisheries, integrated assessment modeling, quantification of regional- to
global-scale ecosystem services, econometric analyses of climate change
impacts, and the drivers and consequences of land use change.

The ESS vision at UC Irvine began in in 1992 with a focus on global
environmental changes that occur on human time scales. Currently the
department has twenty-five full time faculty with research and teaching in
climate dynamics, biogeochemistry of oceans and atmospheres, atmospheric
chemistry, cryosphere, ecohydrology, food security, and global energy
systems (see http://www.ess.uci.edu/). We seek a new colleague who will
build on these core strengths. The new hire will be at the assistant
professor level and in the UC tenure track. Candidates must have a Ph.D. in
a suitable discipline. Apply online at
https://recruit.ap.uci.edu/apply/JPF04234 or contact
facultysearch at ess.uci.edu. The selection process begins 1. Oct. 2017, and
the position will remain open until filled.
