Engineering a world of possibilities The Mines Oceanography Research Group seeks a Post-Doctoral Fellow to study coupled air–sea interactions in Atmospheric River source regions, with a focus on how surface waves influence air–sea fluxes and upper‑ocean structure. The position involves coupled ocean–atmosphere–wave modeling, integration of observational datasets, and publication of research results. The successful candidate will use coupled ocean–atmosphere–wave modeling, observations, and theory to investigate sea‑state variability, momentum and heat exchange processes, and wave‑driven upper‑ocean dynamics. Responsibilities include running and analyzing coupled models, integrating in‑situ and satellite observations, publishing peer‑reviewed research, releasing open‑source software, and presenting results at scientific conferences. The postdoc will work under the supervision of Dr. Bia Villas Bôas at Colorado School of Mines (Mines), with collaboration from Scripps...

Engineering a world of possibilities The NOAA Cooperative Institute for Research to Operations in Hydrology (CIROH), is hiring for an hourly Research Support position, working with Mines faculty (Research Prof. Andy Wood) and external project team members. The researcher will conduct geospatial data processing and analysis for large Earth Science datasets (100s of gigabytes) using common coding languages (e.g., Python) on high performance computing (HPC) systems. The researcher will also prepare presentations for project meetings and possible science conference participation, contribute analyses and writing to publications, and prepare datasets for dissemination to the research community. Minimum qualifications: PhD a computationally oriented discipline and Demonstrated proficiency in big data analysis as well as technical writing. Preferred qualifications: PhD in an Earth Science discipline with strong computational experience, or in a related computational...

Engineering a world of possibilities The Civil and Environmental Engineering Department at Colorado School of Mines is seeking a postdoctoral fellow to support our research on building energy systems for building sustainability and resilience. This is a one-year position with the possibility of a one-year extension. The anticipated start date is August 1, 2026, or shortly earlier. The postdoctoral fellow will conduct the following research: (1) large-scale building energy modeling for natural hazard resilience; (2) occupancy behaviors and occupant-centric controls; and (3) advanced AI techniques for building performance research. Additional responsibilities include preparing project reports, scholarly publications, and research proposals. The role also involves close collaboration with research partners in academia and national laboratories, and the fellow may be required to conduct additional activities to support key projects and the establishment of the research group....
