1.Lecturer, Geography and Environmental Science
The Department of Geography and the Environmental Science Program invite applications for a Lecturer with teaching responsibilities in both programs. The academic home for the appointment will be the Department of Geography. This position is a continuing teaching (non-research) appointment, preferably starting 1 January 2019. Applicants should have a PhD and training in the natural sciences relevant to this position. They should demonstrate excellence, or the promise of excellence, in teaching, and demonstrate a commitment to apply experiential learning and innovative pedagogy. In Geography, the successful candidate will mainly teach large enrolment geography courses that integrate science and social science perspectives (https://www.sfu.ca/students/calendar/2018/summer/courses/geog.html), and courses that develop professional communication skills and facilitate career development. The ability to teach core physical geography courses will be an asset. In Environmental Science, the successful candidate will teach core environmental science courses (https://www.sfu.ca/evsc/courses.html) and a course within the program in their area of specialization. The ability to teach quantitative skills will be an asset. Preference will be given to candidates who can successfully teach students from a range of science and non-science backgrounds. We seek candidates who will contribute positively and constructively to our work environments and participate in community-building and collegial governance.

5.Mesoscale data assimilation scientist
The Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) in Boulder, Colorado and the NOAA Earth System Research Laboratory (ESRL) have an immediate opening for a research associate with experience in mesoscale satellite data assimilation and numerical weather prediction. The scientist will have an appointment within the Assimilation Development Branch (ADB) of the ESRL Global Systems Division.
The scientist will develop and test modifications in data assimilation procedures for satellite and other observations in mesoscale and storm-scale models, including assimilation of satellite-derived cloud and precipitation products. The scientist will work in collaboration with other scientists in ESRL/GSD/ADB. This work will include development for the HRRR and Rapid Refresh (RAP) assimilation systems using the GSI (Gridpoint Statistical Interpolation) assimilation and the WRF (Weather Research and Forecast) model. It will also involve work with NOAA’s Next-Generation Global Prediction System (NGGPS) including the FV3 model and the JEDI data assimilation system as it is developed with a focus on short-range forecast and nowcasting applications. The scientist will work as part of team in testing and refining algorithms for real-time operational application. The position is located in Boulder, Colorado. Salary will be commensurate with experience.
