[ES_JOBS_NET] PhD Graduate Assistantship: Atmospheric Sciences - Michigan Technological University

[Mark Kulie]

***************************************************************************
PhD position in snowfall remote sensing at Michigan Tech
***************************************************************************

Applications are invited for a NASA-funded PhD position at Michigan
Technological University (MTU).  The overall goal of the project is to
develop global snowfall datasets from NASA sensors (e.g., GPM,
A-Train).  Spaceborne
remote sensing datasets will also be evaluated and improved using
ground-based remote sensing and in situ snow microphysical observations.

We are interested in candidates with strong backgrounds in the atmospheric
sciences.  Computer programming skills and experience with satellite and/or
ground-based remote sensing data processing are assets.  Interested
candidates should send their CV and a brief statement of interest to Mark
Kulie (mkulie at mtu.edu).

Michigan Tech is located in Houghton, MI, USA on the southern shore of Lake
Superior.  The university has a total student population of about 7000. The
location is a superb outdoor environment far from cities, on the largest
and most pristine of the Great Lakes, with excellent skiing, cycling,
kayaking and wilderness activities. Cost of living is low, and independent
environmentalism is a way of life.



PhD programs are offered in Atmospheric Sciences, Geophysics, Geology, and
Geological Engineering (http://www.mtu.edu/geo/).  More information

instructions and course descriptions, can be obtained at
