The Geomorphologist will be responsible for exploring new research directions in landscape evolution, geomorphology, critical zone science and interactions between tectonics, climate, and topography. The fellow will engage in data acquisition, interpretation, and reporting in conference presentations and peer-reviewed journals. Further, the fellow will actively mentor graduate students and support grant-writing efforts. Essential Job Duties:Research. Work with colleagues and other members of the Critical Zone Science and Tectonic Geomorphology Lab, to identify topics of interest in landscape dynamics and interactions between landscapes, climate, and tectonics, tailored to the interests of the fellow. Projects that span these sub-disciplines and collaboration with colleagues across CSU and the geosciences are particularly encouraged. The fellow will lead fieldwork, analytical work, or modeling to delve into these topics. The product of this work will be conference presentations and peer-reviewed papers. The fellow will also be expected to assist in developing proposals for submission to external funding agencies. Broader Impacts. Present results at scientific meetings, to researchers from a range of disciplines; develop outreach opportunities to local communities; Assist in mentoring graduate and undergraduate students. Professional Development. The fellow will be expected to take advantage of professional development opportunities that may align with the two categories above or may build upon the interests and planned career trajectory of the fellow.
