<span lang="EN" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">The Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences Program at Princeton University, in association with NOAA's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory (GFDL), seeks a postdoctoral
scientist or more senior research scientist for research focused on coupled high-resolution atmosphere-wave-ocean models and their implementation for simulating coastal storm events and hazards, with a focus on extreme events and their impacts.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in; line-height: 16.866667px; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">The scientist will collaborate with GFDL researchers to enhance and analyze a high-resolution coupled model system that utilizes NOAA’s state-of-the-art global-nested
SHiELD atmospheric model, MOM6 ocean model, LM4 land-hydrological model, and the WAVEWATCH III wave model. This project will emphasize research that targets understanding the role of kilometer-scale (<10 km) coupled air-sea interactions and hydrological processes
in coastal hazards, including coastal inundation, heavy precipitation, severe winds, and inland flooding. Connections to driving factors, such as tropical and extratropical cyclones, will be included. This project will also study the impacts on human safety
from these events. The selected candidate will join a vigorous research group at Princeton University, working in close collaboration with Dr. Lucas Harris at GFDL and Dr. Kun Gao at Princeton CIMES. The individual will have access to state-of-the-art numerical
models and high-performance computing systems at Princeton and NOAA, working alongside GFDL model developers to advance capabilities for high-resolution coupled regional modeling.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span lang="EN" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 18.4px; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;">Candidates must have a Ph.D. in atmospheric science, physical oceanography, applied math, the physical sciences, or a closely related field. The following
attributes are desirable: (a) a background in coupled air-sea interactions, hydrology, coastal meteorology or oceanography, or marine weather systems; (b) experience in using coupled atmosphere-ocean models; (c) experience in developing numerical models in
collaborative environments; (d) excellent written, oral, and visual communication skills, demonstrated through prior peer-reviewed publications and presentations at major conferences; and (e) experience with software development and analysis tools, such as
Git, SVN, Linux, Python, Fortran, NetCDF, Pangeo, Jupyter, and/or Matlab<o:p></o:p></span></p>
