[Christine Wiedinmyer]

A postdoctoral or more senior research position in Urban 
Microclimatology is available in the Department of Civil and 
Environmental Engineering at Princeton University. The prospective 
researcher will develop improved representations of physical urban 
processes in coupled land-atmosphere models, and will perform 
multi-scale atmospheric modeling to investigate the interaction of 
water, energy and climate in built terrain. The work will primarily use 
the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model for mesoscale and 
large-eddy simulations, focusing on extreme events (heat waves and 
storms) and how they can be mitigated and/or adapted to via better urban 
design. The research will be supervised by Professor Elie Bou-Zeid 
(http://efm.princeton.edu/).
Interested candidates are encouraged to apply as soon as possible. The 
start date would preferably be during the summer of 2016, but the 
position will remain open until filled. All applications should be

experience and interests, and the names and emails of three references. 
Questions about the scope of the work can be addressed

considered. This appointment is for one year, and may be renewed pending 
satisfactory performance and sufficient funding.
