results.
Suitable candidates will posses a Ph.D. in physical oceanography,
atmospheric science, applied mathematics, computer science, or a related
discipline. Those with a strong computational background, field
observation experience, and familiarity with manipulating and serving
large data sets are especially encouraged to apply. The position is
initially available for a one-year period, and is renewable for
subsequent years subject to performance review and funding availability.
The salary range is $40,000 to $60,000 USD with an attractive benefits
