Southern Methodist University (SMU) announces four faculty positions in the
area of earth hazards and national security. These tenure-track positions
are in the areas of atmospheric science and climate change; optical remote
sensing; big data analysis and machine learning; and the socio-economic
impacts of earth hazards, including environmental justice. Candidates will
be expected to develop an outstanding research program and effectively
teach and advise a diverse student body of graduate and undergraduate
students. The multi-faculty hire represents an ambitious program to develop
large-scale collaborative research projects responding to some of
humankindâ??s most daunting challenges. These positions will begin in the
Fall of 2022.



As part of these hires, the Roy M. Huffington Department of Earth Sciences
at Southern Methodist University invites applications for two positions at
the level of assistant or associate professor in the areas of atmospheric
science and climate change and optical remote sensing. The department
engages in fundamental and applied research using quantitative,
measurement-based approaches. Successful candidates will strengthen a
research core focused on Earth system interactions with current specialties
in atmospheric acoustics, radar remote sensing, seismology, tectonics,
environmental studies, climate related systems associated with the solid
Earth and/or atmosphere, water cycle and aqueous systems, life and its
history, geochemistry, and natural and anthropogenic hazard and risk.



*Position No. 50827-* *Atmospheric Science and Climate Change*. We seek
candidates with a broad background in climate and/or atmospheric science
with expertise in global climate modeling over broad timescales and direct
or proxy measurements of the current or past atmosphere. Candidates
interested in working across timescales and synthesizing real-time
atmospheric measurements with proxy data are strongly encouraged to apply.
Candidateâ??s areas of expertise might include, but are not limited to,
modern atmosphere and its dynamics; the Earthâ??s near-time geological record
of climate change through geochemistry, sedimentology, geobiology; and
integrative data science that speaks to climate history on our planet.
Applicants for Position 50827 must submit their CV, statement of teaching
and research interests, three letters of recommendation via Interfolio at

*Position No. 06030â??* *Optical Remote Sensing*. We seek candidates with a
broad background in geological optical remote sensing with expertise on
geohazards, Earth surface processes, land use dynamics, or critical zone
studies. Candidates with experience analyzing remote sensing big data of
different sources to understand processes, or developing methods for
converting remote sensing image data into information relevant to
environmental changes and monitoring applications are encouraged to
apply. Applicants
for Position 06030 must submit their CV, statement of teaching and research
interests, three letters of recommendation via Interfolio at
