Leading Physical Oceanography Projects

beBee Careers is seeking a candidate for Leading Physical Oceanography Projects in Sydney, Australia. The role focuses on ocean mixing processes, neutral surface formation, and hydrographic inverse models. Key objectives include investigating ocean mixing in numerical models and developing new methods. Applicants should have a strong mathematics and physical oceanography background, with a PhD or near completion required. This is a permanent position.
Research Focus

This project focuses on advancing our understanding of ocean mixing processes, the formation of approximately neutral surfaces, and the application of hydrographic inverse models in physical oceanography.
Key Objectives
• To investigate the representation of ocean mixing processes in numerical models.
• To develop new methods for forming approximately neutral surfaces.
• To improve the accuracy of hydrographic inverse models.
Eligibility and Selection Criteria

To be considered for these roles, applicants should have a strong background in a relevant field of mathematics and physical oceanography. A PhD degree or near completion is also required.
