Dear colleagues,
I'd be very grateful if you could circulate the
following advert of two postdoctoral
opportunities in physical oceanography at the
National Oceanography Centre, Southampton within your institutions.
Many thanks and best wishes to all,
Alberto
----------
Title: Research Fellow - Physical Oceanographer
(Southern Ocean Circulation and Mixing)
Location: School of Ocean and Earth Science,
National Oceanography Centre, Southampton
Description: The National Oceanography Centre,
Southampton (NOCS) is seeking to recruit a
scientist in physical oceanography to pursue
research aimed at understanding the role of
sub-mesoscale physical processes in the dynamics
of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) and
the overturning circulation of the Southern
Ocean. The project will focus on the analysis of
the first dedicated measurements of internal
waves and turbulence in the ACC. These will be
conducted during a cruise to the ACCs
stationary meander around the Kerguelen Plateau
in late 2008 and will involve a suite of
instrumentation and techniques, including
full-depth observations of oceanic
microstructure and profiling measurements from moorings and floats.
The successful applicant will work as part of a
team examining the physical processes relevant
to Southern Ocean circulation. The group
includes an active sea-going team, numerical
modellers, theoreticians and remote sensing
scientists. The NOCS Southern Ocean project team
will work closely with scientists at project
partner institutions both in the UK and internationally.
The post holder will have a PhD in physical
oceanography (or a related field) with
experience in the interpretation of
oceanographic observations. He/she will have
good knowledge of ocean dynamics and strong
quantitative and communication skills, and will
be expected to conduct innovative research
leading to high-impact publications in international refereed journals.
The post is fixed term (3 years) and the salary
is in the range of £25,134 to £30,913 per annum.
Informal enquiries can be made to Dr Alberto
Naveira Garabato on 023 8059 2680, e-mail

and apply on-line, or call 023 8059 2750. The
closing date for completed application forms is
16 May 2008 at 12 noon. Please quote reference
number 2116-08-E on all correspondence.

Title: Research Fellow - Physical Oceanographer
(Southern Ocean Circulation and Climate)
Location: School of Ocean and Earth Science,
National Oceanography Centre, Southampton
Description: The National Oceanography Centre,
Southampton (NOCS) is seeking to recruit a
scientist in physical oceanography to pursue
research aimed at understanding the role of the
Weddell gyre in the global ocean circulation and
climate. The project will focus on the analysis
of the first comprehensive measurements of the
physical and biogeochemical exchanges between
the Weddell gyre and the rest of the world
ocean. These will be conducted during a cruise
along the gyres outer rim in early 2009 and
will involve a range of instrumentation and
techniques, including measurements of
hydrography and currents, ventilation tracers,
freshwater tracers and carbon system parameters.
The successful applicant will work as part of a
team examining the physical and biogeochemical
processes relevant to Southern Ocean circulation
and climate. The group includes an active
sea-going team, numerical modellers, tracer
chemists, nutrient and carbon chemists, and
remote sensing scientists. The NOCS Southern
Ocean project team will work closely with
scientists at project partner institutions both in the UK and internationally.
The post holder will have a PhD in physical
oceanography (or a related field) with
