to research. We aim to add new faculty who value
collegiality and collaboration in both research
and teaching. The Dept. of Geoscience comprises
highly rated graduate programs and several state-
of-the-art analytical facilities across the fields of
Isotope Geochemistry, Mineralogy, Geochronol-
ogy, Sedimentary Geology, Paleontology, Struc-
tural Geology & Tectonics, Glacial Geology,
Geophysics, Hydrogeology, and Biogeochemistry
(http://geoscience.wisc.edu).
Applicants must have a Ph.D. in Geoscience or a

physics has a large, vibrant faculty with a broad
range of research activities from fundamental to
applied science and strong ties to the petroleum
industry. The student body currently includes
180 undergraduates and 95 M.S. and Ph.D.
students. The University of Oklahoma employees
many faculty with water research programs in
different departments on campus as well as sev-
eral active initiatives focused on water monitor-
ing, conservation, remediation, and management
(e.g., OU WaTER Center, Hydrometeorology and
Remote Sensing Laboratory, Oklahoma Water
Survey, Oklahoma Geological Survey Hydroge-
ology Lab, Water-Energy-Food Institute (WEFI),
the Neeson Lab, and Center for Restoration of
Ecosystems and Watersheds). This environment
will provide the successful applicant with many
opportunities for collaboration both within the
College of Earth and Energy and the broader
University community.
