The College of Marine Science at the University of South Florida invites applications for a tenure-track, nine-month academic appointment in Chemical Oceanography at the Assistant, Associate, or Professor level.  Rank is dependent on qualifications and experience. We seek a Chemical Oceanographer who will contribute to an understanding of the ocean/climate system, from basic disciplinary topics to ecosystems analyses.  Qualified candidates will employ modern tools of multi-disciplinary science to understand regional and global issues critical to the ocean system. Candidates will be selected on the basis of their potential to conduct transformative research within their discipline, their productivity with respect to peer reviewed publications, acquisition of external research funding, and a potential for outstanding mentoring and teaching. The successful candidate would be expected to contribute to core courses in oceanography and teach specialty courses at the graduate level.

Position is open until filled, however, priority review of applications will begin by August 1, 2018. Appointment is anticipated to commence August 1, 2019.

The National Oceanography Centre (NOC) seeks a talented and enthusiastic scientist with substantial experience in modelling marine biogeochemistry, its role in climate and its impact on the society, to join the vibrant Marine Systems Modelling group at NOC in Southampton, UK. The successful candidate will have a strong publication record in the area of ocean modelling, marine biogeochemistry and/or climate change and (for Band 4) a substantial track record of the grant capture.This is a full-time, permanent position. This position is being offered at a Band 5 (salary £35,222 - £40,505) but for candidates who meet the requirements we may be able to offer Band 4 (salary £45,271 – £52,061). Applications from candidates who wish to be based at our Liverpool site will also be considered.

Application deadline: Sunday, 19 August 2018.

The University of Delaware (UD) College of Earth, Ocean, and Environment invites applications for a Postdoctoral Research Scientist position in chemical oceanography and metrology. The successful candidate will work on a NOAA funded project to aid in development of a reference material for ocean pH by establishing traceability of pH indicator dyes to the International System of Units (SI). The scholar will make use of state-of-the-art analytical and experimental
facilities at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Gaithersburg, Maryland, where the position will be located (with the appointment made through the University of Delaware). The postdoc will also attend field test cruises with the UD group. The appointment will be for one year, with continuation pending funding and progress. 

The position will remain open until filled.

A 2-year post doc position is available at the Modelling for Aquatic Systems research group (MAST) of the University of Liège (ULiege) (Belgium). MAST is devoted to the development of ocean numerical models for understanding, forecasting and managing the ocean. The position is offered in the frame of the European Union Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS). The MAST is part of the Black Sea marine forecasting centre (BS-MFC) as a production unit for the biogeochemistry of the Black Sea. The post doc will have to work on the research and development part of the biogeochemical operational model of the Black Sea. The employment contract will start as soon as possible and be of fixed duration (2 years with eventually one additional year and beyond in fundings permit). The applicants will be hired as a post-doc. The workplace is Liège University, SartTilman, Liege, Belgium.

The position will be open until filled.

The School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST) at University of Hawai'i (UH) is seeking applications for three positions at the assistant professor level with expertise and research experience in the broad category of Marine Geology/Geophysics. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, chemical oceanography, sediment geochemistry, biogeochemical cycles, climate dynamics, marine atmospheric chemistry and paleoceanography, with focus on observations and/or numerical modeling. Cross-disciplinary interests are a plus. These are a full-time, permanent positions located at UH Manoa Campus. Nine-month equivalent (.82 Full Time Equivalent) funds provided. The selectees are expected to fund the remainder through extramural funds. Anticipated start date is January 1, 2019, subject to position clearance.

Closing date: Continuous - application review begins September 15, 2018

The Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences (BIOS) is seeking a motivated oceanography research technician to work on the U.S. National Science Foundation funded time-series programs - Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) and Hydrostation 'S'. These projects are focused on understanding the processes that influence the variability of the physics and biogeochemistry of the Sargasso Sea and ultimately how these processes interact to regulate the ocean carbon cycle. Both programs have a strong field component requiring a dedicated team of scientists to perform the at-sea data and sample collection, and subsequent shore-side data processing and sample analyses. The position will initially be for 1-year with continuation depending on job performance and starting salary will be in the range of $38,000 to $47,000 commensurate with experience and qualifications.

Review of applications will start immediately with an effective starting date of October 2018.

The Department of Biological Oceanography at the Center for Scientific Research and Higher Education of Ensenada (CICESE), Baja California, Mexico, seeks a tenure-track candidate with a strong background in biological oceanography. We are particularly interested in candidates with demonstrable research experience in fisheries oceanography or biogeochemical processes. Preference will be given to those who help build on our existing strengths in biological oceanography, in particular biogeochemistry and fisheries, but applicants from other fields within biological oceanography will also be considered. We encourage candidates with experience in cutting edge research techniques, such as the application of chemical tracers, biomarkers, molecular tools, genomics, remote sensing, biogeochemical interactions or modeling.

Application deadline: 15 September 2018
