  • 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.
