Projects are open-ended but will be focused on physical experiments. Potential projects include:
Soil transport and solifluction processes in arctic landscapes. See recent EGU poster about this here: https://tinyurl.com/ybh9b637. Experiments may involve building a “frozen hillslope” in a walk-in climate chamber!
Sediment diffusion in rivers. Experiments will include particle tracking over dry bumpy surfaces, moving to coupled sediment-fluid dynamics in a laminar flume.
Previous experience or strong interest in designing and conducting physical experiments is particularly valued. If you’re interested in chatting about opportunities, I welcome you to contact me at rcglade@gmail.com. I strongly encourage applications from members of underrepresented groups (or members of groups typically under-represented in geosciences and higher education). The University of Rochester is committed to creating a diverse workplace and an inclusive community: https://www.rochester.edu/diversity/.
The University of Rochester is a highly ranked research university, and the Rochester area's (http://www.visitrochester.com/) cultural, educational, and recreational assets frequently place it among the best places to live and work. You can have the feel of a big city while being minutes away from great outdoor opportunities- Lake Ontario, The Finger Lakes, Niagara Falls! And only a few hours away from Toronto.
Cheers,
