            Description

    NOAA’s Coral Health and Monitoring Program (CHAMP) at the Atlantic
    Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory in Miami, Florida
    encompasses multiple coral reef ecosystem research themes:  1) Major
    Stressors:  ecosystem response to climate change, ocean
    acidification, overfishing, sea level rise, and land-based sources
    of pollution; 2) Ecosystem Recovery:  discovery of new techniques
    for coral restoration; 3) Ecosystem Health: coral growth,
    calcification, erosion, and recruitment;  4) Coral Bleaching:
    environmental correlates, modeling, host/zooxanthellae dynamics; 5)
    Coral ‘Omics:  transciptomic basis of disease, coral microbiome
    characterization, ‘omics-related bioinformatics; and, 6) remote,
    near real-time monitoring through the Coral Reef Early Warning
    System (CREWS) Network of in situmonitoring stations.


    Proposals should articulate how the applicant will assist in
    addressing one or more of these disciplines.  Priority will be given
    to applicants with field and/or laboratory experience studying coral
    reef ecosystems, or from a related discipline that is directly
    applicable.


            Eligibility

    Citizenship:  Open to U.S. citizens, permanent residents and
    non-U.S. citizens
    Level:  Open to Postdoctoral and Senior applicants
