Duties

As a Biologist, you will perform the following duties:

• Apply analytical methods and techniques to synthesize marine and ecosystem scientific data from member agencies as related to Ocean Acidification.
• Utilize knowledge of scientific analytical methods, ocean exploration, natural resource management, biology and data interpretation to compile related research data to produce comprehensive congressionally mandated reports.
• Develop technical messaging and briefing materials for leadership to highlight the contributions of key science activities, partnerships, and/or federal policies and programs to advance ocean acidification research and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) priorities.
• Conduct legislative and scientific analyses, communications and outreach on ocean acidification related topics. Compile science policy issue information for dissemination at national, intra- and interagency working group meetings.

The Project ‘Ocean Acidification – proof of concept of new approaches’, funded by the “Velux Fonden”, offers a 2 year post doc position in the field of assessing new approaches to detect the impact of ocean acidification. The project is a collaboration between the Marine Biological Section (MBS), University of Copenhagen, Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO, University of Gothenburg and Plymouth Marine Laboratories (PML). The postdoc will be employed at MBS, which is located in Helsingør. While Helsingør will be the main workplace, regular exchanges and travels to the partners’ locations is envisaged.

So far, the biggest obstacle to increasing the overall effectiveness of biological observations for ocean acidification (OA) is a lack of clear guidance on what biological parameters to measure and, importantly, how such observations can be compared with others to generate greater understanding of the trends, hotspots, and patterns occurring over local, regional, and global scales. The studies to be undertaken by the post doc will help to overcome this obstacle in identifying a clear subset of biological variables and indicators that provide quantitative information across all ecosystems, as well as a method to not only understand the rate and severity of the local impact, but also to compare multiple datasets to deliver a greater holistic understanding of OA’s biological impacts regionally and globally. Such methods will rely on biological observations being coupled with a suite of environmental observations including, but not limited to, measures of carbonate chemistry, in integrated observing activities.

MBARI seeks a Research Technician to join the Ocean Biogeochemical Sensing (OBS) Team. The ocean is facing unprecedented changes due to human activity: temperatures are rising, ocean acidity is increasing, oxygen levels are declining, and nutrient distributions are changing. These changes could have cascading effects through the ocean ecosystem, and impact society. However, the ocean is chronically under sampled, and we are not able to effectively quantify these changes through traditional ship-board measurements. Recent developments in biogeochemical sensors combined with autonomous platforms provide a potential solution to this under sampling problem. We are looking for a candidate with the expertise and excitement to contribute to this impactful area of research.

The main mission of the OBS team is to advance autonomous sensing technology, and help establish a global network of biogeochemical profiling floats and gliders. Such an observing system will allow sustained measurements of key biogeochemical parameters from the open ocean to the coast. This position will support the data management, quality control, and analysis of biogeochemical sensors on underwater gliders and profiling moorings. Additionally, the research technician will help troubleshoot, maintain, and calibrate custom-built pH sensors for these platforms.

The selected candidate will report to Yui Takeshita, and work closely with members in the OBS team and the Chemical Sensor Lab. This is a 1-year term position that may be extended depending on continued funding and job performance.

Application deadline: 5 November 2023 at 11:59pm (Fiji time)
