The position will be either at the Assistant or the Associate Professor level, depending on the qualifications of the successful candidate.

All climate-related expertise will be considered, with preferences for urban, boundary layer, geospatial, or climate change adaptation themes.

The potential to take leadership roles in sponsored, team-based research is expected. Competence in teaching synoptic and/or dynamic meteorology as well as physical geography is desirable. Strong collaborations with our Earth System Science & Climate cluster and some combination of our other research-teaching clusters and pan-ASU projects, such as the Central Arizona Project-LTER, Decision Center for Desert Cities, and ASU’s new climate adaptation program, is expected. For the Assistant Professor position, a PhD in Geography, Climatology, Atmospheric Science or a related field is required at the time of hire and a demonstrated track record in refereed publication is desired. For an appointment at the Associate Professor level, a demonstrated track record of refereed publications and extramural research funding is required. Applications should include: 1) a cover letter that includes a description of the applicant’s research and teaching interests and philosophy, 2) a current vita, 3) a writing sample, and 4) the names, addresses, e-mail and telephone numbers of three references.
