A new position for a postdoctoral research associate is available in
Space at VT with Professor Leonard Smith at Virginia Tech. The project is part
of a NASA-funded DRIVE Science Center for Geospace Storms, which is a
large, vibrant, highly collaborative, interdisciplinary research team led
by the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory focusing on
simulation, modeling, data analytics, machine learning, and uncertainty
quantification (UQ) of the geospace system. Virginia Tech will contribute
new approaches, based on UQ, for more aggressive and effective pathways
toward improvement of the Multiscale Atmosphere-Geospace Environment (MAGE)
model developed by CGS. CGS seeks to apply advances in modeling,
simulation, and analysis capabilities afforded by increased computational
power to augment and maximize the scientific understanding; this position
will focus on identifying and exploiting inadequacies in the dynamics of
the model to improve simulation in a structured manner. Skills acquired
will be highly transferable. We envision the postdoc will leverage these
efforts to creatively advance simulation and prediction in the broadest
sense, interacting and contributing to prediction science activities across
Virginia Tech.

Questions about this position can be email to Professor Leonard Smith (
lennys at vt.edu, Subject: Space Weather Postdoc).
