Post Doctoral Research Associate - Weather Hazard Testbed Development and Research
|
Amherst
|
|
| Funded by the UMass, Amherst, Paros Center for Atmospheric Research, this position is integral to establishing a testbed centered on the UMass, Amherst, campus that integrates a variety of instruments to conduct original research into local and mesoscale processes contributing to extreme weather. We are looking for a Ph. D. scientist who is knowledgeable in one or more of the areas of boundary layer meteorology, terrain-induced circulations, precipitation processes and ground-based measurements, and has extensive experience in deploying and analyzing observations from ground-based field measurements. The UMass testbed is intended to provide research and educational opportunities to explore the weather phenomena of Western Massachusetts including, gravity waves, diurnal wind circulations, heavy precipitation, winter precipitation, and implications for local flooding or other impacts. At this time, the testbed is envisioned to emphasize three integrated observing sites in the Pioneer Valley of Western Massachusetts, the most extensive of which will be near the UMass campus and proximate to the UMass dual polarimetric x-band radar (UMaXX). |
