   marine science, geology, environmental science, or geography is required.
   - A record of excellence in teaching or evidence of promise for

   hydrology, geomorphology, marine geology, paleontology, active tectonics,

   - Experience in enhancing and promoting diversity and inclusion (for
   example, through novel teaching and research approaches) is an asset.


*Responsibilities*

The successful candidate must have the interest and ability to teach Earth
System Science, Geology and the Environment, and GIS, and will take a
leadership role in teaching and curricular development of undergraduate and
graduate courses in their area of expertise. The candidate will contribute

the new faculty member will establish ties with federal and state agencies
and engage with the public in the area of coastal resources/management. An
ability and desire to foster and maintain interdisciplinary connections
within the College of Science and other Colleges in the University (e.g.
Social Sciences, Engineering), as well as Moss Landing Marine Laboratory is
expected. Teaching non-majors is also expected. Research involving masters
and undergraduate students is required, and external funding must be
