Assistant Professor in Indigenous Communication

Assistant Professor (Tenure-Track) in Atmospheric-Ocean Interactions, School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences&nbsp;Location:&nbsp;Stony Brook University&nbsp;Open Date:Dec 18, 2025&nbsp;Deadline:Feb 15, 2026 at 11:59 PM Eastern Time&nbsp;Description&nbsp;Atmosphere-Ocean interactions are crucial for regulating Earth's climate by regulating the exchange of energy, moisture, gases, and aerosols, and are fundamental to weather patterns and extreme events. Despite their importance, critical controlling processes remain poorly understood, underscoring the urgent need to improve Earth system modeling. Significant uncertainties exist, including how ENSO will change with increasing global warming and the impact of the projected slowdown of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation on regional climates in eastern North America and western Europe. Furthermore, increasing ocean temperatures are altering the distribution of marine life, including phytoplankton, zooplankton, and fish. Changes in ocean biology affect sea spray aerosol, a key driver of extra-tropical mixed-phase clouds, which are responsible for the largest uncertainties in current equilibrium climate sensitivity estimates. To tackle these challenges, SoMAS seeks someone with experience in research on ocean-atmosphere interactions, through conducting observational, modeling, or experimental studies, to complement our existing strength in climate-related research.&nbsp;Description of Duties:&nbsp;The School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences (SoMAS) at Stony Brook University invites applications for a faculty position in Marine Sciences and Atmospheric Sciences.&nbsp;The successful candidate will have a strong commitment to teaching and will teach undergraduate and graduate courses, as well as mentor students.
