We are seeking candidates with independent research interests that intersect with one or more faculty within our department. Both domestic and international applicants are welcome, but applicants must have a Ph.D. awarded within three years of the time of appointment. The research fellowships will be supported for two years, pending satisfactory progress during the first year, and covers an annual stipend of $60,000 with a benefits package and an additional annual discretionary research allowance of $3,500. Applicants are requested to develop a proposal of research to be undertaken during the fellowship period. The principal selection criteria are scientific excellence, a clearly expressed research plan to address questions at the forefront of their field of study, and research synergies with at least one faculty. The proposed research should, however, encompass independent research ideas and explore new directions beyond the applicant’s Ph.D. Preference will be given to applicants whose proposals demonstrate independence and originality, and also the potential for collaboration with one or more faculty in the Department of Earth, Environmental and Planetary Sciences. *The application for both fellowships is due on 1 November, 2018.* Applicants are required to submit one application only at http://jobs.rice.edu/postings/15058. The application should include the following documents: (1) A cover letter. (2) A research proposal of no more than 3 pages (not counting references) of single-spaced text and figures. (3) A current CV, including a list of publications. As part of the online application, the applicant will also have to provide the names and contact information of three or more people who will be asked to submit reference letters by the same deadline. The highest ranked applicants will be invited to visit Rice in early 2019. Following acceptance, the appointment may begin anytime before 1 January, 2020. For further information or questions contact the chair of the search committee at esci-postdoc@xxxxxxxx.

We wish to appoint two collaborative, intellectually curious and inclusive colleagues as Assistant Professors, with research and teaching interests in any areas of Earth Science that complement the department’s existing expertise. You will make a key contribution to the Department’s future success by providing the highest quality education to both undergraduate and postgraduate students, and by conducting research that is recognized internationally for its originality, significance, and rigour. You will be encouraged and helped to build your own research group, to collaborate widely, and to realize the full potential of both the discipline-specific and broader multidisciplinary impact of your research. Your research may innovate new research themes or contribute to existing themes in the Department and across the University. We will help you to reach your full potential in both education and research. Start-up packages can be negotiated and we welcome applications from those who wish or need to adopt flexible working practices. The Department strives for a collegial and collaborative working environment and is a member of the Athena SWAN Charter, currently holding a departmental Bronze Athena SWAN award. Interviews are anticipated to take place in early 2019 and successful applicants will, ideally, be in post by 1 June 2019.

Candidates should have recently completed their Ph.D. or should expect to complete their degree requirements by September 2019. Researchers at the Observatory work to understand the dynamics of the Earth’s chemical, physical, and biological systems, from the core to the upper atmosphere, including Earth’s interactions with human society. Our scientists lead research in the fields of solid Earth dynamics; ocean, atmospheric, and climate systems; cryospheric dynamics; paleoclimate; and biogeoscience. There is also an opportunity for a fellowship in forest ecology with a fieldwork component at the Black Rock Forest Consortium, a research facility near the Lamont Campus. The principal selection criteria for Fellows are scientific excellence and a clearly expressed plan to investigate problems at the forefront of Earth science. Applications from all related fields are welcomed. Fellowships are supported institutionally for 24 months, include a $7,500 research allowance, and carry an annual salary of $66,000. Successful candidates will be encouraged to apply for external funding and may be eligible for further internal awards and positions. Lamont is especially interested in qualified candidates whose record of achievement will contribute to the diversity of the Observatory’s scientific personnel. *The deadline for applications is November 12, 2018.* For more information, and to apply for the fellowship, please visit: http://www.ldeo.columbia.edu/postdoc Contact: The Office of the Director, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Columbia University, Palisades, NY 10964 Tel: 845-365-8546 • Fax: 845-365-8162 • Email: pdfellowship@ldeo.colum bia.edu Web: www.ldeo.columbia.edu Note: Related postdoctoral opportunities are available at the Earth Institute at Columbia University, http://www.earthinstitute.columbia.edu/articles/view/55 Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory is committed to diversity.
