OHIO, COLUMBUS 43210-1361.  The Ohio State University.  ASSISTANT
PROFESSOR.  PhD in geography or closely related field required, or
strong expectation thereof.  The Department of Geography seeks a full-
time, tenure-track faculty member with expertise in Remote Sensing,
ideally over snow and ice surfaces, a working knowledge of Geographic
Information Systems, and substantive grounding in one or more aspects
of Hydrologic Science.  The latter may include local- to basin-scale
hydrology and/or modeling atmosphere-surface interactions.  An
interest in environmental policy and law as related to water resources
could be advantageous.  The successful candidate is expected to have a
topical research agenda that complements the department's extensive
expertise in urban and regional studies, climate and atmospheric
science, geographic application of spatial and analytical tools, and
an expanding expertise in human dimensions of global change.  A keen
interest in the application of physical investigations to issues
associated with human reliance on water resources is essential.
Knowledge of and appreciation for the diverse research approaches
represented in this department also will be an advantage; i.e.,
preference will be given to those whose interests augment and support
the department's substantive, theoretical, and analytical
orientations.  The new faculty member will assume a key role in Ohio
State's emerging Global Climatic and Environmental Change Program and
will be expected to interact with colleagues in the Byrd Polar
Research Center, a leader in polar and global change research.

individuals with disabilities are strongly encouraged to apply.  To be
assured of consideration, a completed set of application materials
