Multiple Tenure-Track Positions Announcement - Assistant to Full Professor
Coastal Ecosystem Dynamics Group
University of Florida

The Engineering School of Sustainable Infrastructure and Environment (ESSIE) at 
the University of Florida invites applications for multiple tenure-track 
faculty positions at Ast/Aso/Full Professor levels. Candidates must hold a 
doctoral degree in an appropriate field of science or engineering. We seek 
creative, highly productive scientists who have demonstrated innovative 
research in the areas of coastal hydrodynamics, coastal geotechnical 
engineering, coastal ecosystem ecology, and/or coastal ecological engineering.

developing the ESSIE Coastal Ecosystem Dynamics Center and graduate program to 
investigate the complex dynamics of natural and manmade coastal systems. The 
review of candidates will begin immediately and will continue until all 
positions are filled.

Coastal ecosystems sit at the interface between marine and terrestrial 
environments, and their structure and function are controlled by complicated 
interactions between hydrodynamic forces, geotechnics of natural and man-made 
systems, and organisms that biogenically build coastal reefs and wetlands. The 
mission of the Coastal Ecosystem Dynamics program is to conduct research into 
the diverse challenges facing coastal ecosystems, infrastructure and 
communities, while preparing graduate students to be leading engineers, 
scientists, and scholars in the face of coastal change. More information about 
the CED program can be found at: https://faculty.eng.ufl.edu/ced/people/.

Preference will be given to candidates with a research focus in one of three 
areas: 1) coastal turbulence and transport processes, 2) coastal ecohydrology, 
ecological engineering and ecosystem resilience, and 3) coastal geotechnical 
engineering. Candidates must demonstrate a strong interest in and record of 
interdisciplinary research that aligns with the mission of the Coastal 
Ecosystem Dynamics Center. Research approaches can include theoretical, 
numerical, or experimental methods. The successful candidates will be expected 
to build a strong externally funded research program; provide professional 
service; teach and develop courses at the undergraduate and graduate level; and 
develop research collaborations and synergistic activities with other faculty 
members of ESSIE, the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering, and the 
University of Florida.

To be considered, interested candidates should apply through the University of 
Florida by visiting http://explore.jobs.ufl.edu/cw/en-us/listing/, referencing 
requisition number 495161, and attaching:
- Current CV
- Statements of teaching and research plans (2-3 pages each) with a focus on 
how those plans will support college, school, and Coastal Ecosystem Dynamics 
Center initiatives,
- Up to three representative journal articles (co-) authored by the applicant,
- Names, addresses, phone numbers, and e-mail addresses of five references.

For more information about the position, ESSIE, and the department, visit 
www.essie.ufl.edu, and contact Alex Sheremet at 
alex.shere...@essie.ufl.edu.

The University of Florida is an equal opportunity employer, women and

California Lichen Society Grants Program

Applications due October 1

The California Lichen Society offers small grants to support research 
pertaining to the lichens of California. No geographical constraints 
are placed on grantees or their associated institutions. The grant 
application process is very straightforward; except for the letter of 
support, it is possible to complete an application in two hours or 
less. Required information includes project title, description, time 
frame, budget, academic status, etc.


Applications are reviewed anonymously by members of the grants 
committee based on completeness, technical quality, consistency with 
CALS goals, intended use of funds, and likelihood of completion. Grant 
proposals received by October 1 each year will be considered for that 
year's grant cycle. Usually, two grants are awarded to separate 
individuals, however during some years both grants are awarded to one 
person. All grants are partially dependent on member contributions, 
therefore the amounts of these awards may vary from year to year. This 
year the total amount of grants to be awarded is $1750.


The application instructions can be read online or downloaded from

http://californialichens.org/resources/cals-educational-grants-program/

[ECOLOG-L] Research questions in terrestrial ecology

[Carolyn Loeb]

Dear ECOLOG members,

As a M.S. student in New Hampshire who is in the process of designing her
master's thesis, I am looking to research unanswered and relevant questions
relating to terrestrial and ecosystems ecology and particularly those
focusing on landscape-level drivers of change (especially climate change).
I anticipate using GIS as a project tool and am open to doing field work,
though would probably be best working with existing data sets if analyzing
long-term trends.

*What questions in terrestrial ecology do you feel are important to answer
that could be done within the scope of a master's thesis? *I am looking to
focus my work in a topic that is relevant to the northeast and ideally is
in demand by a local or regional organization that could use the project in
decision making. Of course, any funding knowledge you have for projects of
this kind would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions you have. While I have been
conducting literature reviews and perusing ResearchGate questions, I would
like to hear directly from other ecologists as to where they think our
current needs lie.

All the best,
Carolyn Loeb
