Dartmouth invites applications from qualified students to our Masters and Ph.D.
programs to work on problems relating to ocean turbulence and mixing. Present
research areas include numerical modeling of small-scale mixing in the ocean
and/or oceanographic field studies using dye and drifter release experiments.
Positions carry a tuition waiver, as well as an annual stipend.
A bachelors or masters degree in oceanography, physics, engineering,
computer sciences, applied mathematics or related field is required.
Applicants should have strong mathematical and computer skills
and some background in physical and/or earth sciences.
Review of applications is ongoing, and will continue until all
positions are filled. Enrollment beginning Spring or Fall 2008 is expected.
