Staff

Position Summary:

The Center for Natural Resources (CNR) at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) http://cnr.njit.edu has an immediate opening for multiple postdoc positions in the area of modeling water flow in rivers and estuaries as subjected to rain and coastal flooding. The position is offered on the Main Campus of NJIT in Newark, 20 minutes from downtown New York City. The salary is very competitive.

Essential Functions:

The research position requires conducting simulations for water flow and sediment transport in rivers under steady state and transient (flooding, drying) conditions. Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence will be utilized to find causality between flood levels and rainfall. In many cases, the numerical results would need to be validated by comparison to experimental results using advanced parameter estimation techniques.
