• Impacts of climate variability on human health, infrastructure, ecosystems, the economy, and national security.
• Strategies for reducing and sequestering greenhouse gas emissions
• The chemistry and transport of air pollution
• Research in the polar regions

The successful candidate will have a strong technical background in atmospheric, climate, and/or polar sciences; strong executive management skills; proven experience in stewarding and growing relationships with federal, state, and private sponsors; experience supervising staff and fostering their growth; and established networks within the scientific community. The successful candidate will be dedicated to advancing a culture or respect, diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging among the staff and in all activities conducted under the auspices of the two boards. The position reports to the Executive Director of the National Academies’ Division on Earth and Life Studies.
