We seek an outstanding scholar and teacher who will establish an innovative research program with clear societal relevance addressing issues within the Critical Zone, involving interactions between the solid Earth, soil, water, and/or the atmosphere. Potential areas of research could include, but are not limited to, atmospheric sciences and extreme weather, water resources, alternative energy, carbon dioxide reduction/climate change mitigation, and natural hazards. Research may involve field work, laboratory analyses, experimentation, interpretation of large data sets, and/or computer modeling. We are especially interested in candidates who are enthusiastic about providing undergraduate research opportunities, mentoring of students, and cultivating a diverse learning community. The successful candidate will offer an introductory Geoscience course accessible to both majors and non-majors, a 200-300 level course within the core Geoscience curriculum (e.g. geochemistry, mineralogy, geomorphology, or sedimentology), and electives based on their area of expertise. The position is within the Department of Geoscience, but may also contribute to our programs in Environmental Science, Policy, and Engineering, and a new major in Environmental Engineering. <br class=""><div class="">
