<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman , serif ;","serif"">We are seeking a highly-motivated individual to join our research team at the University of Oklahoma. The fellow’s research will focus
on developing coupled numerical modeling capabilities and applying them to urban-scale weather and air quality simulations and predictions. The model results will be verified against observations. The successful applicant will be mentored by Dr. Petra Klein
(Associate Professor, School of Meteorology) and Dr. Ming Xue (Director, Center for Analysis and Prediction of Storms, CAPS) who together have extensive experience in urban meteorology and atmospheric modeling. The fellow is expected to enhance state-of-the-science
mesoscale models such as the ARPS and WRF, for them to better represent the physics and dynamics in urban environments. The primary study domain will initially be in the southern Great Plains of the United States, including the metropolitan areas of Dallas-Fort
Worth and Oklahoma City. The position is initially funded by the University of Oklahoma for 3 years. We expect the successful candidate to become a productive member of our research team that will be active in the preparation of publications, presentations
for conferences, and in the organization of seminars and scientific events. Participation in scientific proposals is also encouraged.
