1. Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution：Postdoctoral Scholar Program
Eighteen-month Postdoctoral Scholar awards are offered annually to recipients of new or recent doctorates in the fields of chemistry, engineering, geology, geophysics, mathematics, meteorology, physics, and biology as well as oceanography. The competitive awards are designed to further the education and training of the applicant with primary emphasis placed on the individual's research promise.
In order to be eligible for one of these awards, applicants must have received their doctoral degree within the past 2-3 years. As a condition of the award, successful applicants must be able to present their diploma, a certified copy of their diploma, or a certified letter from the appropriate college or university official stating that they have completed all of the requirements for their degree including the completion of their final thesis, before they begin their scholar appointment. However, applicants do not need to have already received their degree prior to applying. It is also expected that candidates will have a command of the English language. MIT/WHOI Joint Program Students, and those holding any type of WHOI appointment at the post-Ph.D. level during the 12 months prior to December 31st of the Scholar application year are not eligible for the Scholar competition.
Successful applicants of awards can initiate their study and research period at the Institution any time after January 1 and before December 1st of the year following the award notification. December 1st is a firm deadline. Recipients of the 2018-2019 awards will receive a stipend of $58,500 per year for an 18 month appointment, plus a relocation allowance. Limited support is also available for travel expenses, equipment, supplies and special services.
Extensions of scholar appointments may be possible if required to complete the initial research program. Extensions are rare, and restricted to one, six-month extension of the initial 18-month Scholar appointment, and the extension must be contiguous to the original appointment. Requests to extend a Scholar appointment will not be considered until after the first annual review. An extension request is initiated by a Scholar and his/her sponsor(s) and requires approval by the Chair of the Department hosting the Scholar and the Vice President for Academic Programs. In addition, a source of WHOI internal funds (unrestricted funds) to support the costs of the extension needs to be identified by the Scholar's advisor or others involved with the Scholar's research program. Extensions of a Scholar appointment beyond 24 months are not allowed, although a Scholar can be considered for appointment as a Postdoctoral Investigator following procedures defined by WHOI Human Resources.
Scholars are chosen through a highly competitive process, and for this and other reasons, these appointments carry special recognition at the Institution. Each recipient is encouraged to pursue his or her own research interests in association with a member of the Resident Scientific or Senior Technical Staff. Each award recipient is provided with office and laboratory space in close proximity to the resident staff acting as sponsor and general advisor throughout the award period.
Communication with potential WHOI advisors prior to submitting an application is encouraged. We will make sure that any staff member you mention as a potential sponsor has an opportunity to review your application. The best way to obtain more information about ongoing research here is via the individual Department, Center and Institute web pages found on the Research Areas page.
Requirements
In addition to the formal application form, the following are required:
a current CV or resume that shows educational background and work experiences;
a brief synopsis of the applicant's doctoral dissertation (one page abstract);
a minimum of three non-WHOI recommendation letters (You must ask your reference writers to submit these letters on-line. We do not contact your references to request letters. You should direct your reference writers to the reference link, found to the left on this page); and

6. University of Southampton： A sticky situation: probing the chemistry of aggregate formation in the ocean
Rationale:
The ocean is full of sticky compounds. These cause phytoplankton cells and other organic matter to stick together and form sinking aggregates (‘marine snow’). The impact that marine snow, which transports carbon from the surface to the deep ocean, has on global elemental cycles is huge: Once transported to depths >1000 m the carbon is removed from the atmosphere for >100 years. The stickiness of particles also affects human activities directly: for example, clogging up filters of desalination plants. What makes particles in the ocean sticky?
The stickiness of particles can be defined at the probability that particles remain attached upon collision. Extracellular polymeric substances (‘exopolymers’), released by microbes as a growth substrate and by phytoplankton during nutrient stress, appear 1-2 orders of magnitude more sticky than most other marine particles. Higher concentrations of exopolymers in seawater have been linked to increased marine snow formation. Moreover, exopolymers can self-aggregate, leading to the formation of particles even after water has been filtered.
However, the chemical processes involved in stickiness are poorly understood. We know little about what controls it and how it behaves when environmental conditions change. To date, we do not even know how to systematically quantify ‘stickiness’ in oceanography.
Methodology:
You will develop procedures to characterize and quantify stickiness, initially using model polysaccharides. You will then use phytoplankton cultures to produce organism-specific exopolymers from different species. You will also have the opportunity to participate in a research cruise to the Southern Ocean to collect your own samples, investigate marine snow and study particle formation at sea. Using roller tanks, you will generate your own particles, explore their growth rate and examine how stickiness properties relate to particle aggregation. Key aspects of the project will be to test and compare physicochemical techniques to determine the aggregation potential. You will learn to characterize the particles with optical and electron microscopy then to measure their size distribution. You will assess how the exopolymers affect the surface tension and attempt to determine the particles surface charge. To establish whether the hydrophobicity of the exopolymers correlates with their aggregation potential you will investigate techniques such as chromatography. To monitor aggregation in real time you will investigate a range of electroanalytical techniques.
Location:
National Oceanography Centre Southampton, University of Southampton
Training:
The SPITFIRE DTP programme provides comprehensive personal and professional development training alongside extensive opportunities for students to expand their multi-disciplinary outlook through interactions with a wide network of academic, research and industrial/policy partners. The student will be registered at the University of Southampton and hosted at the National Oceanography Centre; work will also be undertaken in the Electrochemistry Group. Specific training will include (1) physicochemical techniques to characterize the samples, (2) collection, production and characterization of marine snow from cultures and natural waters, (3) simple statistics.
In this project, you will acquire fundamental knowledge and research skills in oceanography and chemistry. You will join two groups with world-class reputation, and have opportunities to participate in research cruises, visit co-supervisor Passow in the US, and present your work internationally. Applications from candidates with no oceanographic experience are welcomed. Previous training can be augmented using University courses and the Electrochemistry Summer School.

We put a huge amount of effort into the recruitment process to meet this objective. We expect to receive hundreds of applications and interview around 100 candidates a year. Those candidates invited for interview will typically spend a whole day at NOCS in Southampton, meeting with supervisors and going through the interview process. Additionally, students applying for projects based outside of NOCS at one of the other partner organisations or within the wider University of Southampton are encouraged to arrange with prospective supervisors to visit the potential hosting organisation.
Minimum Academic Eligibility Criteria
BSc/MSci 2:1
and/or Masters (MSc or MRes) at Merit/Distinction level (>60%).
and/or evidence of significant relevant professional experience equivalent to Masters level.
Projects
A list of available SPITFIRE projects for 2017/2018 entry can be found on the GSNOCS website. Projects can also be searched according to research theme and suitable first degree.
We encourage candidates to list two or three projects in which they are interested with a provisional ranking of preference to help us circulate your application among the pool of potential supervisors. Please submit only one application. Multiple projects can be listed on one application.
Funding
Each SPITFIRE project comes with a 3.5 year fully funded studentship for UK students and EU students who meet the RCUK eligibility criteria. Stipend in line with RCUK stipend levels.
To be eligible for a full award (stipend and fees), a student must satisfy all of these conditions:
Settled status in the UK, meaning they have no restrictions on how long they can stay.
Been ‘ordinarily resident’ in the UK for three years prior to the start of the grant. This means they must have been normally residing in the UK (apart from temporary or occasional absences).
Not been residing in the UK wholly or mainly for the purpose of full-time education. (This does not apply to UK or EU nationals.)
Some projects are open to strong applicants who do not meet the above eligibility and/or are using alternative funding mechanisms via the GSNOCS PhD programme or other host faculties. These projects will contain a link to apply via GSNOCS or direct link to Faculty programme code.
Applying
All PhD applications to SPITFIRE should be made online using the ‘Apply to SPITFIRE’ link in the project description. Non SPITFIRE applicants should use the ‘Apply to GSNOCS’ link. Please make sure you select the correct link when applying.

7. World Maritime University: PhD programme
WMU’s PhD programme offers students the opportunity to carry out research across the maritime field, but with an emphasis on issues related to the International Maritime Organization’s mission of maritime safety, security and environmental protection. Our doctoral programme offers unrivalled access to international maritime experts both inside and outside academia, and to organizations working at the forefront of research and development.
Doctoral students have come to WMU from industry, academia and the government sector, and have completed their dissertations in a very wide range of subject areas, from investigating oil-spill mitigation to an analysis of organizational learning in shipping companies.
The credit system
The PhD program consists of 240 ECTS credits completed usually over a registration period of three to six years. Candidates may be based at the University or elsewhere, usually at their place of employment.
Within the time limits of three to six years, candidates may work at their own pace, which can also vary during their period of enrollment. For example, you may choose to spend one year working at WMU full time, and then return home to complete your work over a longer period, with short visits to the University for progression seminars, meetings, and so on
1 ECTS credit (EC) is approximately 25 study load hours. One academic year is generally 60 EC, or 1500 study load hours, or 36 hours per week over an academic year of 42 weeks.
Progression
Each of the four progression seminars, successfully completed, earns 40 EC. Successful defence of a finalized dissertation earns a candidate 60 EC.
In the initial 6 to 12 months of their registration, students complete a research methodology programme (20 EC), and prepare a detailed proposal for their research, including a literature review. At the end of this initial period, the first progression seminar is held, at which the candidates each present their research proposals.
Throughout the doctoral programme, further progression seminars are held where the candidates present their work to date and their research plans for the next twelve-month period. After every seminar, the Progression Board meets, and considers each candidate's report and a report from each principal supervisor. At this Board meeting, decisions are taken as to whether the candidate is to be permitted to progress to the next stage of the research.
The defence of each PhD dissertation is assessed by a specially established committee, which includes at least one senior and well recognised external expert in the relevant field, from an established organization.
A candidate’s enrolment can be terminated at any point if his/her progress is not considered to be satisfactory.
Advanced standing
A candidate who has completed part of a doctoral degree elsewhere may transfer into the WMU programme with advanced standing. Their period of enrolment at WMU will vary in line with the amount of research they have already completed, but the minimum permissible period of enrolment must include at least two progression seminars and the dissertation (140 EC). A candidate with advanced standing must therefore be registered for at least 12 months.
Supervision
All doctoral students have a principal supervisor who is a member of the resident faculty. According to the topic of research, a student may also have a co-supervisor, who may be a Visiting Professor or a suitable person from outside the University.

Position Details
The Ocean Physics Department (OPD) in Applied Physics Laboratory at the University of Washington (APL-UW) is seeking Post-doctoral Research Associates with research interests in upper ocean mixing processes and turbulence. This is a full-time (100% FTE) appointment, with an expected term of up to 36 months subject to satisfactory performance and availability of funding.
The Research Associate will work with an observational and modeling team to conduct and analyze a detailed observational study of mixing processes at the base of the upper ocean boundary layer during Fall 2018. Skills in oceanographic data analysis, ocean dynamics and mixing processes are desirable. Successful applicants must hold a recent (no more than 4-years) PhD or foreign equivalent in order to assume a post-doctoral position.
A transition to permanent staff following the completion of the post-doc appointment is possible subject to availability of funds and the demonstration of an interest in developing independent research initiatives during the course of the post-doc appointment. Opportunities to collaborate with scientists across APL and the UW campus provide access to a broad range of expertise both during the post-doctoral research and as a permanent member of the staff.
APL-UW serves society by contributing new knowledge and technology to the national defense enterprise, industry, public policy makers, and academia. The Laboratory’s broad and deep experience in undersea science and technology is a significant reason why APL-UW is one of only five Department of Defense-designated University Affiliated Research Centers (UARCs) having long-term, large-scale, formal connections to the U.S. Navy.

The University promotes diversity and inclusivity among our students, faculty, and staff and the public; we seek applicants who are committed to these principles. Thus, we are strongly seeking applicants whose research, teaching, and/or service have not only prepared them to fulfill our commitment to inclusion, but have also given them the confidence to fully engage audiences in higher education from a wide spectrum of backgrounds.
The position offers salary commensurate with experience, as well as the University’s excellent comprehensive benefits package. Details are available at http://hr.uw.edu/benefits/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2016/05/BAAG-Faculty-9-mo-or-more-appointments.pdf).
