Dear Fellow Phycologist:
Although it may be unlikely that a phycologist per se would be
appropriate for either tenure track position, some of you may have
colleagues for whom one of these positions might be interesting.
Please share the information as appropriate. Many Thanks! Russ

The Wetland Biogeochemistry Institute and the Department of
Oceanography and Coastal Sciences are seeking an individual for a
tenure-track faculty position to conduct research and develop courses
in the area of coastal wetland biogeochemistry with a focus on
functions and processes, global climate change science,
microbial-soil- plant relationships, and/or other biogeochemical
concerns.
Expectations include: 1) establishing a vigorous externally funded
research program, individually, and with co-investigators in the
Institute, the School, and the University, 2) publish research in
peer-reviewed journals, 3) develop and teach graduate and
undergraduate level courses related to the applicants particular area
of expertise and the needs of the Department, 4) direct graduate
students, and 5) oversee the Department's concentration in Wetland
Science and Management.
Applicants must have a Ph.D. in a relevant discipline with
training/research and publication experience in coastal wetland
biogeochemistry or a closely related wetland area. Applicants must
have evidence demonstrating the potential for achievement in
research
and teaching and should have strong written and oral communications
skills. We anticipate filling the position at the assistant professor
level, but more senior candidates will be given full consideration.
Review of applicants will begin August 1, 2003 and will continue
until a suitable applicant is found.
The School of the Coast and the Environment has strong physical,
chemical, biological, ecological, and geological programs in near
shore, estuarine, and wetland environments, and a strong
environmental
studies program. The School will be moving to a new building during
2003.
Applications should consist of a CV, a statement of research/teaching
