The Department of Environmental Earth Systems Science within the School of Earth Sciences seeks applications for a tenure-track faculty appointment at the Assistant Professor level in the area of marine chemistry or marine geochemistry. We are looking for a person with a commitment to excellence in both research and teaching. The successful applicant will be able to interface effectively with existing faculty members such as those currently using field, laboratory, and/or modeling-based approaches to study ocean ecology, biogeochemistry, climate variability, global change, coastal environmental engineering, and geomicrobiology. Excellent opportunities also exist for collaboration with the strong marine scientists within Stanford’s Woods Institute and Hopkins Marine Station, and at nearby research institutes like the Carnegie Institution and the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute.
Stanford University has a strong institutional commitment to the principle of diversity. In that spirit, we particularly encourage applications from women, members of ethnic minorities, and individuals with disabilities.
The position will remain open until filled. To be assured full consideration, applications, including a curriculum vita, a statement outlining research and teaching interests, and the names and addresses of three or more referees, should be submitted online by November 1, 2008, at: http://pangea.stanford.edu/jobs/. Select the Marine Chemist faculty position.
Questions can be directed to Prof. Kevin Arrigo (arrigo@stanford.edu).
The Stanford School of Earth Sciences now houses a full range of isotope geochemistry/geochronology/thermochronology facilities. These feature the Stanford-USGS SHRIMP-RG ion microprobe and associated TIMS laboratory; a new multi-collector ICP-MS and high-resolution ICP-MS facility supported by newly commissioned clean labs; new 40Ar/39Ar and (U- Th)/He, and fission-track thermochronology laboratories containing multi-collector and single-collector mass spectrometers and state-of-the-art extraction lines; and cosmogenic radionuclide laboratories. In addition, an electron microprobe, a scanning electron microscope with EDAX and cathodoluminescence imaging, and sample preparation and mineral separation laboratories are available. Related facilities include stable isotope laboratories, ICP-AES and GC-MS capabilities, high-pressure experimental capabilities including a diamond-anvil cell laboratory, and the recently established Center for Computational Earth and Environmental Science.
Stanford University is an equal opportunity employer and is committed to increasing the diversity of its faculty. It welcomes nominations of and applications from women and members of minority groups, as well as from others who would bring additional dimensions to the University's research and teaching missions.
