The Coastal and Environmental Sensing And Modeling (CESAM) Lab (https://earth.masdar.ac.ae/) is recruiting a postdoctoral research scientist to join a team of scientists working on the development and application of robust numerical ocean models in the region. The lab is part of the recently established Khalifa University after the merger of three main universities in Abu Dhabi. The CESAM Lab is based at Masdar Institute campus of Science and Technology in Abu Dhabi. Experience with the ocean model ROMS is desirable. The focus will be on the simulation of dispersion in the Gulf. An experience with ADCP and CTD deployment and data analysis is also preferable. Experiences in coupling the ocean model with a Lagrangian trajectory model (e.g. oil spill, HABs, or radionuclide dispersion modeling) and an ecosystem-biogeochemical model are beneficial.
Khalifa University is based in the great city of Abu Dhabi https://www.ku.ac.ae/. The position offers a competitive tax-free salary package and several other additional benefits. Review of applications begins immediately.
Applications must include a cover letter that includes the names and contact information of three references and a detailed resume. The applicant can include examples of relevant publications or achievements. Candidates with MSc degree with a strong experience and research record are welcome to apply as well. While we thank all those who are interested in the position but only short-listed candidates will be contacted.
