Position description

Postdoctoral Research Associate
Zooplankton Ecology

Department of Biological Sciences
Virginia Institute of Marine Science
The College of William and Mary

A postdoctoral position is available immediately to join an
NSF-funded project investigating the impacts of mesoscale eddies on
zooplankton community structure and biogeochemical cycling in the
open ocean.  The project will address how the physical/ chemical/
biological characteristics of mesoscale eddy features affect the
spatial and temporal distribution, and behavior and physiology of
zooplankton, as well as how do differences in zooplankton dynamics
within or outside eddies affect vertical flux of carbon and
associated bio-elements.  The postdoctoral associate will participate
in 2 summer cruises in each year of 2004 and 2005 in the Sargasso Sea
off Bermuda.

Applicants must have a Ph.D. with emphasis in marine science or a
closely related field with expertise in zooplankton ecology.
Knowledge of basic zooplankton taxonomy is essential, and experience
with acoustics, performing MOCNESS tows, and zooplankton physiology
is highly desirable.  Funding is available for 3 years at a starting
salary of $35,000/yr.

For informal inquiries or to send application materials, interested
individuals should respond to:
