NRL Precision assessment of the wide-swath altimetry

Due: May 1, 2025

$86,962

Description

The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) is seeking a postdoctoral associate in applied math with applications to physical oceanography. The focus will be on sparse approximations to the inverse of JPL error covariance model of the SWOT altimeter. The work requires excellent programming skills (Matlab, Python, Fortran, Unix scripting) and numerical modeling experience. Understanding of the data assimilation algorithms will be a plus. Apart from the analytic work on the matrix approximation, numerical experimentation with a regional co...

Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
