enhancements.  Preference will be given to applicants with experience
with running and analyzing observations from global MHD models, such
as the Open Geospace General Circulation Model (Open GGCM), and/or
coupled thermosphere-ionosphere models, such as the NOAA Coupled
Thermosphere Ionosphere Model (CTIM).  The successful applicant will
primarily conduct research at the University of New Mexico but will
also collaborate with researchers at the Space Weather Center of
Excellence within the Space Vehicles Directorate of the Air Force
Research Laboratory, Kirtland Air Force Base, Albuquerque, NM.  The
