The Climate Dynamics and Modeling lab at the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Houston (https://uh.edu/nsm/earth-atmospheric) is seeking a PhD student to work on tropical climate dynamics and/or regional hydroclimate. Potential research topics include atmosphere-ocean interactions, El Nino dynamics and modeling, tropics-extratropics teleconnections and regional precipitation changes. The student will be advised by Dr. Honghai Zhang. The position is fully funded with either teaching or research fellowship.
Qualifications:
B.S. or M.S. degree in math, physics, atmospheric sciences, engineering or relevant fields, with adept knowledge in calculus, partial differential equations, etc.
- Programming experience: skills in Python, MATLAB, R, Fortran or other similar languages are preferred, but not required
Strong self-motivation and enthusiasm for climate research
Interested candidates should send your CV, one-page statement of research interests and copies of transcripts to hzhang83@central.uh.edu. Qualified candidates will be selected for interviews. The position will remain open until filled.
