Overview

The University of Washington Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) seeks a recent Ph.D. in physical oceanography to study internal waves, mixing and rotating hydraulics in the energetic abyssal flows of the Samoan Passage. The research will include detailed observations from profiling moorings, lowered CTD/Doppler profilers and turbulence profilers in two cruises (March 2012 and September 2013), as well as numerical modeling of regional-scale flows and small-scale processes within the Passage.

  • Coordinate with modeling and turbulence work by Prof. Glenn Carter.
Qualifications
  • Ph.D. in physical oceanography.
  • Proven ability to work at sea, sometimes under adverse conditions.
  • Desirable familiarity with current practice in studying the internal tide, internal waves, hydraulically controlled flows and mixing.
