MPOWIR Mentoring Physical Oceanography Women to Increase Retention
Postdoctoral positions – Scripps Institution of Oceanography and University of E
MPOWIR Mentoring Physical Oceanography Women to Increase Retention, San Diego, California, United States, 92189
Overview
Two 24-month postdoctoral positions in Physical Oceanography and Geophysical Fluid Dynamics are offered as part of a research project co-funded by NSF and NERC at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography and University of Edinburgh. Positions
Scripps Institution of Oceanography, supervised by W R Young University of Edinburgh, supervised by J Vanneste About the project
The project is devoted to the role played by internal waves in the energetics of the ocean. It will examine stimulated loss of balance, the process whereby wind-forced near-inertial waves and internal tides extract kinetic energy from the balanced mesoscale flow. The project combines the derivation and analysis of simplified theoretical models with numerical code development and simulations. Qualifications
PhD by start date Strong background in fluid dynamics and expertise in numerical modelling, evidenced by publications Expertise in oceanography or atmospheric sciences desirable Start date
The start date for both positions is to be agreed, around 1 January 2018. Interested candidates should email W R Young, wryoung@ucsd.edu, for the Scripps position, J Vanneste, j.vanneste@ed.ac.uk, for the Edinburgh position, or both.
