We welcome applicants with research interests in climatic processes as well as Cenozoic climatic history. Specific research areas include, but are not limited to, glaciology; climatology; atmospheric circulation; low-temperature geochemistry; coupling between tectonics, climate and surface processes; and the biologic record of climate change. The Postdoctoral Associate position is awarded for two years, providing a stipend ($48,000/yr) and base research funds ($5,000/yr), plus health care benefits and limited expenses for relocation. Applicants should contact a sponsor in the Department to identify potential research projects, and then submit a short (2-3 page) statement of research interests and proposed research, a curriculum vita, and list of publications.
