Jobs and positions available
- May 2018
The SCHISM developer's team at Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS), led by Dr. Joseph Zhang, is seeking a new post-doctoral level position that can start as soon as late summer, 2018.
Interested candidates should go to [College of WIlliam & Mary web site https://jobs.wm.edu/] and use 'Search Jobs' function and use position number: G0084V. - June 2018
We are seeking a Postdoctoral Scientist to conduct original research using state-of-the-art hydrodynamic models to understand fish migrations through rivers. The postdoc will work with an integrative team of researchers under the direction of Dr. Andrew Hein at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and Dr. Vamsi Sridharan (UC Santa Cruz), based in Santa Cruz, California USA. We are currently advertising a CFD modeling Post-doc position to model the fine-scale hydrodynamics of open water processes in the San Francisco Estuary system, and build parameterizations into a more scalable system-scale coupled hydrodynamic-biophysical model of juvenile salmon migration.
This position is part of a new multi-year project to build a data-driven hydrodynamic and biophysical model of salmon migrations. We are seeking a researcher with expertise in modeling 3D hydrodynamics (e.g., using SCHISM and OpenFOAM or another CFD tool of their choice) with an interest in merging the physics of flows and the biology of organisms that move through and interact with those flows. Please direct inquiries to Andrew Hein (andrew.hein@noaa.gov) and Vamsi Sridharan (vamsi.sridharan@noaa.gov).
We have received 3 years of generous funding from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife to continue research on developing this model using data-driven methods (read the proposal document here for a background on the project):
