Guided by Dr Jones, the graduate student will investigate the pathways that northward-flowing surface and intermediate waters take as they pass through the Tropical Atlantic. Lagrangian particles will be seeded in a high resolution ocean model, and the graduate student will investigate their trajectories. We will also investigate how advective and diffusive processes contribute to temperature and salinity transport in this region of the model. Through working on this project, the student will learn about ocean physics and parallel processing tools in Python, as well as developing into an independent researcher with strong communication and writing skills.

Undergraduate degrees in Oceanography, Geoscience, or a similar subject will also be considered, providing the applicant has taken a vector calculus course. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, including members of communities that are marginalized and/or racialized by the systems that control modern western science. Applicants are encouraged to contact Dr. Spencer Jones (spencerjones at tamu.edu) with their CV before applying through the Texas A&M portal (see https://ocean.tamu.edu/graduate-students/ms-phd-oceanography/ms-phd-information/index.html for details).
