Post Doctoral Researcher
US Naval Research Laboratory The Sediment Dynamics Section of NRL’s Ocean Sciences Division performs basic and applied research leading to advanced technology development, demonstration, and validation effort... s focusing on the physical, mechanical, and acoustical properties of seafloor, estuarine, and riverine sediments. Research includes the utilization of a combination of numerical modeling, detailed laboratory measurements, and field experiments. The research project will focus on using deterministic and probabilistic models to simulate nearshore hydro- and morphodynamics, collecting in situ and/or remotely sensed observations, and/or the integration of models and observations to improve model forecasting.
