The successful candidate is expected to work on this project but is welcomed to pursue his/her own scientific goals that are relevant.
Candidates are expected to have a solid background in ocean dynamics and ocean modelling, should be motivated, have excellent communication skills, and able to work well as part of a group. Annual salary is $50,000 with benefits. The initial appointment is for 12 months, with reappointment possible given satisfactory performance for at least another year.
Review of the applications will begin immediately and proceed until the position is filled. If you are interested in this position, please email your CV, statement of research experience, and names of three references to Dr. Xinfeng Liang (liang@usf.edu).
