How will changes in climate affect the global and regional burden of
diarrheal disease?   This is a new full-time one-year term position with
possibility of extension designed to help answer that question.
Initial consideration will be given to applications received prior to
5:00 MDT on Friday, June 21, 2011. Thereafter, applications will be
reviewed on an as-needed basis.

https://hostedjobs.openhire.com/epostings/submit.cfm?fuseaction=app.jobinfo&jobid=216941&company_id=15947&version=1&source=ONLINE&JobOwner=962106&startflag=1

The purpose of this position will be to determine and carry out
methodologies to assess and analyze how predicted changes in climate
variables (e.g., precipitation, sea level) may influence resilience of
access to drinking water sources and sanitation facilities which, in
combination with other factors, determines the impact of climate on the
global burden of diarrheal disease. Multiple climate change scenarios
will be employed to globally determine changes in climate that may
impact resilience of drinking water sources and sanitation facilities.
The output from these analyses will then be integrated into World Health
Organization models for resilience and global burden of disease. Results
will be use to identify vulnerable geographic areas. Subsequent
regionally-focused studies may then be carried out.
The job location is dependent on the hired candidate's university or
other existing affiliation and with the Oceans and Human Health Centers
of Excellence as defined below:
* The Center of Excellence for Oceans and Human Health at the Hollings
Marine Laboratory in Charleston, South Carolina;
* The West Coast Center of Excellence for Oceans and Human Health in
Seattle, Washington; and
* The Center of Excellence for Great Lakes and Human Health in Ann
Arbor, Michigan.
