TERRESTRIAL BIOPHYSICS-BIOGEOCHEMISTRY MODELING DIVISION OF EARTH SYSTEMS
SCIENCE OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY

									
			Posting # 0006556

Oregon State University's Division of Earth Systems Science invites
applications for an Assistant Professor. This is a 0.75 FTE, 12-month or
1.0 FTE, 9-month tenure-track position (at the discretion of the Department
Head). Though this tenure track position will be offered at
0.75 FTE, the incumbent is authorized and encouraged to increase his/her
working FTE up to 1.0 by securing other sources of funding for the
additional 0.25 FTE. The Division seeks an individual to develop vigorous
research, teaching, and outreach programs focused on earth systems modeling,
specifically terrestrial biophysics-biogeochemistry modeling at multiple
scales that incorporates spatial and in situ observations.
Applications are encouraged from individuals representing terrestrial and
atmospheric sciences, particularly those with expertise in regional to
global scale simulation of terrestrial ecosystem carbon, water and energy
exchange in response to climate change, and how they interact with climate
in terms of radiative forcing from terrestrial carbon sources and sinks,
albedo, and anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Multi-scale analysis and coupled
climate-land surface modeling are of particular interest. Incumbent must
have at least 2 years experience in spatial applications of biophysics-
biogeochemistry modeling at regional to continental scales. 
A PhD in earth systems modeling, biogeochemistry, environmental physics or
closely related area is required prior to the start of the appointment. 
The major selection criteria will be demonstrated excellence in research
suggestive of future leadership in the field.  The individual will be
expected to contribute to teaching a core undergraduate course and an
advanced graduate-level course on biophysics-biogeochemistry modeling.
