Ken - Please look for at least one to have an "ocean perspective." Maybe someone who has born and lived on an island nation, or at least an ocean oriented education, the University of the South Pacific, University of Hawaii, etc.
I will forward to those I know.

Subject: [geo] Post-doc Opportunity: Innovative Solutions to the
Energy/Carbon/Climate Problem

The two scientists on my staff who worked on the "crop yields and geoengineering" paper that just came out in Nature Climate Change (Julia Pongratz and Long Cao) will be leaving our research group shortly. They are irreplaceable, but their departure does open up two positions in my group. If you know of any good scientists who are about to our have recently become PhD level scientists, please let me (and them) know.Post-doc Opportunity: Innovative Solutions to the Energy/Carbon/Climate Problem
Carnegie Institution Department of Global Ecology on the Stanford campus.
We use and modify existing physics and biogeochemical models of the Earth (atmosphere, ocean, and land surface), and do back-of-envelope calculations, to help evaluate and develop innovative solutions to the energy/carbon/climate problem. We also address questions related to basic climate science, energy-systems analysis, and ocean acidification.
We seek to hire several outstanding post-doctoral researchers who can lead research projects that contribute to some of these research directions. We are looking to develop an exciting collegial atmosphere with a lot of personal freedom, wherein each group member both leads research projects and collaborates on projects led by others.
The initial term will be for one year with the potential for renewal for up to a maximum of three years. The position will be at the Carnegie Institution Dept. of Global Ecology on the Stanford University campus. Carnegie Institution post-docs have access to most Stanford facilities. Interested potential post-docs should send to kcalde...@carnegie.stanford.edu: (1) a curriculum vitae, (2) a few sentences on research interests and/or possible research projects, and (3) the names and contact info for three references.
Key factors in our hiring decisions will be intelligence, thoughtfulness, creativity, motivation, productivity, and a record of successful scientific or technical publication. We are flexible with regard to your domain of expertise. The Carnegie Institution is an equal-opportunity employer and does not discriminate based on race, sex, age, physical condition, or country of national origin.
