The Florida State University Coastal and Marine Laboratory Research Faculty Positions in Marine Science The Florida State University Coastal and Marine Laboratory (FSUCML) ( http:// www.marinelab.fsu.edu) invites applications for two research faculty positions (12 month renewable appointments) in Marine Science. We seek highly motivated individuals with notable research achievements, the ability to develop well-funded independent research programs, and a commitment to excellence in outreach. Salary is provided at 100% for the first two years, 75% in the 3rd year, and 50% from the 4th year forward, with the expectation that the 100% salary is met through external funding. The background of the candidates may be in any area, but it is expected that successful candidates would emphasize either ecological or physical processes related to the local environments. Applicants should have a Ph. D. Inquiries about the position may be addressed to Dr. Felicia Coleman, Director ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). Review of applicants will begin July 1 and will continue until successful candidates are identified. The Coastal and Marine Laboratory is committed to building a research program focused on coastal and marine issues of ecological importance that provides the scientific basis for policy decisions. Areas of interest include, but are not restricted to, predator-prey interactions, benthic- pelagic trophic coupling, and nearshore/oceanic physical transport mechanisms. The developing program is interdisciplinary in nature, based on an ecosystem level approach, and thus requires the interaction of scientists from a number of different fields. In addition to these two positions, the FSUCML will be hiring two additional research faculty within the coming year. Opportunities for collaboration are encouraged between resident FSUCML scientists and faculty on the FSU campus in Tallahassee. FSU is an AA/EO employer. Female and minority candidates are especially encouraged to apply
