Coastal Modeler, NOAA NOS, Silver Spring MD

[wilkin]

There is an opening for a Coastal Modeler to support National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS) in Silver Spring, MD.

Key Responsibilities:

• Assist CO-OPS with the transition and implementation of new hydrodynamic coastal models, coastal model upgrades, and new modeling capabilities (e.g., data assimilation or coastal coupling) in the supercomputing environment at NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Prediction, where NOS operational forecast systems are run.
• Support the development, analysis, and implementation of a new coastal model along the East and Gulf Coasts.
• Couple coastal models with riverine models, or improving existing coastal models.
• Analyze the output from coastal models (those in operation or development) to assess the skill of the nowcast and forecast guidance.
• Evaluate model predictions against observations, or assess the integration of model output with other products and services.
