<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:normal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">A new position for a postdoctoral
research associate is available in Space@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. </span></p>
