Post-doctoral Position with British Antarctic Survey

Post-doctoral Position with British Antarctic Survey

Overview: Post-doctoral researcher positions will be joint between Schlumberger Cambridge Research and British Antarctic Survey.

Responsibilities

• Collaborate with the Seismic Data Acquisition and Processing group at Schlumberger Cambridge Research and the Polar Oceans programme at the British Antarctic Survey to develop methods for ocean current estimation.
• Review and develop inverse mathematical model methods to invert dynamic streamer measurements (such as tension, shape, and lateral steering forces) for local ocean current estimates at scales of tens of metres to a few kilometres.
• Improve existing code and test it on modelled and real data. Integrate current models with independent ancillary oceanographic data from shipboard and satellite sources to investigate submesoscale processes in the ocean and their parameterisation in climate models.
