We are recruiting a Postdoc or a permanent Research Associate (RA) focusing on applications of AI/ML to coastal hydrology, flooding, or related hydrologic issues. Selection of Postdoc or Research Associate will be based on level of experience.
Job Description
The successful candidate will initially be in a multi-institutional, multi-year effort developing digital twin of coastal systems. Examples of the types of research involved include:
- Performing multi-physics simulations (coastal hydrodynamics and hydro/hydraulic modeling)
- Synthesizing and downscaling hydrological and climate model outputs
- Developing and applying ML techniques for physics-based, surrogate modeling (examples include but not limited to forward & inverse modeling, domain adaptation, uncertainty quantification) using one or more state-of-the-art deep learning packages
- Evaluating and interpreting model outputs against observations
- Presenting results during regular group meetings and at professional society meetings
The position will be at the Bureau of Economic Geology, which is part of the Jackson School of Geosciences at the University of Texas at Austin. The Bureau has a strong environmental program.
Interest and questions should be addressed to Dr. Alex Sun (Alex.Sun@beg.utexas.edu) or Dr. Bridget Scanlon (Bridget.Scanlon@beg.utexas.edu)
