Doctoral Studentship at North Carolina A&T State University, 
Greensboro, NC 27411


POSITION: Doctoral Studentship - Computational and Analytical Modeling
in Atmospheric Science.


We are inviting applications for an NSF-funded Doctoral Studentship to
conduct research on  atmospheric turbulent multiphase flows using
analytical and computational modeling techniques.  This study focuses
on the marine atmospheric boundary layer of a hurricane laden with
polydisperse evaporating sea spray. In-depth understanding and
accurate modeling of the interaction between ocean spray and turbulent
airflow under high-wind conditions of a hurricane is essential
for improving forecast accuracy of intensity of hurricanes and severe storms. 

The selected candidate will actively contribute to the development and
implementation of a mathematical and computational model for a marine
atmospheric boundary layer laden with evaporating polydisperse sea
spray.  The model will enable us to accurately describe the effect of
ocean spray on the air-sea exchange of momentum, heat, and moisture in
high-wind condition of a tropical cyclone. This research project
combines the fields of applied mathematics, computational fluid
dynamics, and atmospheric science.


MINIMUM  QUALIFICATIONS:
1. B.S.  or M.S. degree either in Applied Mathematics, Atmospheric Sciences,
Physics, Engineering, or other relevant field.
2. Good English proficiency proven by TOEFL or analogous exam score.

HIGHLY DESIRED QUALIFICATIONS:
1. Experience with numerical methods and programming skills in Matlab
and/or fortran90.
2. Experience with Mathematical Modeling.
3. Experience with Fluid Dynamics and/or Atmospheric Science.
