The Department of Ocean and Earth Sciences (OES) in the College of Sciences (CoS) at Old Dominion University (ODU) in Norfolk, VA, invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position in sea level rise (SLR) with a focus on the physical contributions to sea level. This faculty position is part of ODU’s Centennial Cluster Hire initiative within the SLR and coastal resilience research focus area. This faculty member will partner with other cluster hire faculty, including one in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) to develop transdisciplinary research, education and outreach programs by incorporating SLR data and modeling products focused on quantifying the magnitudes and variabilities in the physical processes and variables that contribute to changes in global and relative sea levels.
Job Responsibility:
Conduct research on developing accurate assessments of SLR by focusing on physical contributions to sea level
Develop and teach both graduate and undergraduate courses in physical oceanography and data analysis
Partner with other cluster hire faculty to develop transdisciplinary research, education and outreach programs
Foster synergy across several subdisciplines within OES
Requirements:
Ph.D. in geology, oceanography, environmental science or in a related science discipline completed by the position start date
Must be able to develop and teach both graduate and undergraduate courses in physical oceanography and data analysis
A demonstrated research and publication record on drivers of SLR
A demonstrated ability to use GNSS, inSAR, satellite altimetry, tide gauge or other data, and climate or other numerical models to analyze changing sea level
Experience as a mentor or supervisor for graduate students
Nice to have:
Post doctoral experience strongly preferred
Experience in teaching and/or a clear plan for developing graduate and undergraduate courses in OES
Track record of developing funded interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research collaborations
