The 4^th annual PACE Applications Workshop, scheduled virtually September 6-7 on the Swapcard platform. Registration is open; we hope that you all attend! Find out more and register here: https://pace.oceansciences.org/events_more.htm?id=56

• When you register you’ll see a prompt about the poster session – this year it will be run differently and will be open to the entire PACE community. We encourage you to participate and share how you’ve been preparing for launch!

The U.S. Geological Survey are looking for a Physical Scientist / Geographer (https://www.usajobs.gov/job/726707500) to join our team at the Pacific Coastal & Marine Science Center in Santa Cruz, California.

 Specific duties will include:  

• • • Use ArcGIS, MATLAB, Python, and Google Earth software for applications to ecosystems and climate change impact studies in coastal settings.
    • Process and manipulate various complex geospatial datasets (e.g., remote sensing imagery, bathymetric data sets, sediment composition) to interpret geologic and oceanographic processes and delineate benthic habitats.
    • Use ArcGIS and related software for applications for estuarine, coastal, and marine topographic, bathymetric, and sediment transport studies.
    • Manage and co-author reports and maps to inform the scientific community of results of research.
    • Work directly with editing and publishing groups to see products through the complete publication process.
    • Support dissemination of public information including writing press releases, informational documents, newsletter articles, and web pages.

The work will initially support our science on tropical coastal hazards and ecosystems across the globe, from the Mariana Islands in the western Pacific Ocean to the Virgin Islands in Caribbean. See these links for more information on the science questions and goals:
