Ph.D. positions: numerical and physical modeling of nature-based solutions for coastal protection (University of Florida)
University of Florida, Florida, United States
Start reviewing process: 12 March 2024


am recruiting one or two Ph.D. students at University of Florida (UF), Department of Coastal Engineering. Anyone with interests in coastal, estuarine, riverine hydrodynamics and eco-morphodynamics is encouraged to apply. I am looking for highly skilled students with a strong interest in computer modeling. Experience with physical modeling is optional. The research will focus on two types of nature based solutions: oyster reefs and salt marshes. I am particularly interested in applicants with a strong background in 2D and/or 3D numerical modelling. Experience with Delf3D or Openfoam is preferred, but any modeling experience is welcome. The stronger applicants will be those with strong mathematical/numerical skills, as well as good programming skills (e.g. Fortran, C++, Matlab, Python etc.). Applicants should send their CV to alberto.canestrelli@essie.ufl.edu. Starting date of the position is August 31st, 2024. The position will be open until filled.

Thank you
Best
