The School for Marine Science and Technology at the University of 
Massachusetts Dartmouth invites applications for a postdoctoral 
investigator to work on problems relating to the effects of turbulence, 
aerosols, and other atmospheric parameters on optical transmission in 
the marine atmospheric boundary layer.Specific project areas include 
field observations from fixed, autonomous and shipboard platforms, and 
state-of-the-art numerical modeling of how fluctuating properties of the 
marine boundary layer affect optical transmission. Work will include 
collecting and interpreting field observations using theory and 
numerical results; analyzing and synthesizing data from such studies; 
working with researches from collaborating institutions; and 
disseminating results through workshops, conference presentations, and 
peer reviewed publications.

A Ph.D. in physical oceanography or meteorology, or closely related 
field is required.The ideal candidate will have a firm understanding of 
basic principles of air-sea interaction, with significant education / 
experience in boundary layer physics and/or turbulence.Additional 
experience in numerical modeling preferred, including familiarity with 
Matlab computing software and Fortran programming language, or 
comparable computing environments (Python, C++, R, etc.).Applicants are 
expected to have excellent written and oral communication skills and 
organizational ability, and a demonstrated track record of peer-reviewed 
publications commensurate with experience. U.S. citizens preferred.

Interested applicants that meet the requirements are encouraged to
