<p class="MsoNormal"><b><i><u>Position Announcement: Postdoctoral Investigator in Coastal Evolution Process Modeling<o:p></o:p></u></i></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Virginia Institute of Marine Science’s Coastal Geology Lab is seeking a postdoctoral investigator to contribute to a wave, hydrodynamic, and sediment-transport modeling study (using Delft3D) of Chincoteague Inlet, Virginia. Specifically,
this postdoc will collaborate with faculty and student colleagues at VIMS, the Water Institute of the Gulf, the University of Delaware, and Randolph-Macon College to develop forward- and backward temporal topographic-bathymetric model grid projections for
this system, based on geologic and process data. In addition, the postdoc will also have the opportunity to participate in a number of other studies at the intersection of field geologic data and numerical modeling, including, but not limited to, the development
and implementation of decadal-scale coastal dune-beach process models to study dune morphodynamics.<o:p></o:p></p>
