<span style="font-size:9.0pt;font-family:"inherit",serif;color:black">This is a new, full-time, 2-year term position. The position will conduct research on the cross-scale coupling between atmospheric mesoscale and microscale flows, and on wildland fire and
atmospheric environment modeling. For this purpose, the hire will utilize the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. In addition to carrying out mesoscale simulations with WRF the hire will also use WRF-Fire and WRF-large-eddy simulation (WRF-LES) models.
The research will include improving and assessing new components of the WRF-Fire model as well as the new three-dimensional planetary boundary layer parameterization (3D PBL) implemented in WRF. The assessment of new WRF-Fire model components will be based
on the comparison with observations from wildland fires observed during recent years in Colorado. The assessment of mesoscale to microscale coupled simulations will be based on a range of field studies, but primarily focused on the observations from the Wind
Forecast Improvement 2 project. The assessment of the new 3D PBL parameterization will also include analysis of high-resolution LES over complex terrain.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
