The Département Oceanographie et Dynamique des Ecosystemes at IFREMER (Brest, France) is offering a full-time permanent researcher position in marine biogeochemistry. The researcher will join the PELAGOS laboratory team and will propose and carry-on original research projects to characterize the origin, fluxes and stocks of allochthonous (rivers, sediments) and autochthonous (phytoplankton) organic matter at the marine coastal zone interfaces. These works on fluxes will contribute to the quantification of matter balances in the coastal zones. The studies could consider various spatial (local to regional) and temporal (high-frequency to multi-annual) scales. Candidates must poses a PhD in Oceanography with post-doctoral experience. Knowledge of French language is desirable, but not required.

Deadline for applications: 21 September 2021. Details of the position and how to apply can be found HERE. For questions please contact the Pelagos laboratory manager This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

University of Bergen is offering a fixed-term (3 years) postdoctoral research fellowship as part of the Shaping European Research Leaders for Marine Sustainability (SEAS) programme. This position is connected to the thematic area of marine biogeochemical hazards under warming, ocean acidification, and deoxygenation. The successful candidate will be employed at the Geophysical Institute and included in the research group on biogeochemistry as well as the Research theme ‘Carbon System’ at the Bjerknes Center for Climate research.

Application deadline: 31 October 2021. See the full job description and application requirements here: https://www.jobbnorge.no/en/available-jobs/job/209506/seas-postdoctoral-research-fellow-in-marine-biogeochemical-hazards .

The Department of Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences (EOAS) at the University of British Columbia (UBC) invites applicants for a full-time, tenure-track Assistant Professorship in Chemical Oceanography / Marine Biogeochemistry. We seek a scholar who will conduct innovative research and contribute strongly to teaching programs addressing chemical reactions in the marine environment, and their role as regulators or tracers of oceanic processes. Research areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the marine carbon cycle, elemental speciation and bioavailability, isotope systematics, sediment chemistry and diagenesis, paleoceanography, nutrient cycling and exchange processes across ocean, ice, atmosphere, freshwater and sediment interfaces. We specifically seek candidates using experimental and/or analytical approaches to study chemical processes in natural environments.

The successful applicant will be expected to start as soon as July, 2022, or at a date of mutual agreement. This position is subject to final budgetary approval. All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and permanent residents will be given priority.
